Rate Increased Every Year

by Tammy on Jan 17, 2015
2.5 out of 5 stars

I am a 28 year old female who got my g2 license about 3 years ago. Because my family members are insured with Aviva, I got a multi-vehicle discount which made Aviva the cheapest option for me.

The following year, my rate increased by about 10% which they said was due to an introductory discount that you get with them in your first year.
Fine. The year after that, it went up another 13% despite having no accidents or claims. When I called to inquire, they had no explanation.

I found a better rate with Meloche Monnex which has no first year discounts so I know that this is a true base rate. My broker at Aviva tried to talk me out of it by saying that Aviva works through brokers which makes the service more personalized whereas Meloche Monnex works through the corporate office. In my experiences, I have had a much more difficult time contacting Aviva whose brokers seem to have a very lax attitude towards responding to their voicemails. I am put into contact with someone right away when I contact Meloche Monnex.

I am happy with the switch. Beware of rate increases with Aviva.
