Stay away from this company

Dishonest company. They issued us boat insurance 3 weeks ago, pulled money out of our account, and today our broker calls us and tells us that we aren't covered because the boat is old. Aviva actually went ahead and verbally added a clause in our contract with our broker saying that they want a water survey. Sorry, that's not binding. The contract was signed 3 weeks ago and all requirements and pictures were accepted. Scummy practices.

Worst insurance in Canada.

Nightmare company. Even reaching out to CEO did not help to settle the claim smoothly. Very unprofessional staff with lots of errors in paperwork. Stay away or even boycott this low-grade Aviva insurance.

Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.

Horrible experience!

My motor home was hit in April 2020. It is July 2020 and Aviva still cannot get it together with the other insurance provider. I provided a letter from the other insurance company saying it was their customer's 100 percent fault. Now Aviva wants me to see a notary at my cost to get documents signed. They have been awful to deal with. I am cancelling my insurance after 7 years and I have contacted a lawyer to all with Aviva. It’s taken up to much of my time for an accident that was not my fault!

Poor Customer Service

by SRSH on Jun 19, 2020

Today, I called them to see if they would refund me for 4 months keeping my car in the garage and not using it (due to the pandemic), as the other insurance providers do (many publicly have announced that). After a very long waiting time on the line, the agent declined any consideration in this matter. I will definitely not be renewing my contract with them anymore.

back-stabbing criminals

10 years of flawless claims history and then had one minor accident. I had accident forgiveness so instead, they just lapse your policy on renewal and then put lies on you CEL to add insult to injury. Do not use the criminals they are the worst of the worst and super deceitful.

My Ride

by Deasmumhan on Jun 9, 2020

My Vehicle was hit 3 times in 4 years. The first time the driver stayed and all information were exchanged, he admitted FULL fault to me and the police. The second time the driver took off, the third time AVIVA refused to cover it (surprise) I had to pay for it. I was not in my vehicle any of the times it was hit by another driver making it NO FAULT of mine. Then a rock hit my windscreen and I had to have it replaced. This year in 2020 AVIVA sent me a letter cancelling my insurance due to "4 events in 4 years" now remember event one the driver stayed, event two the driver ran, event three AVIVA refused to pay, and event four was a rock. I have never had a ticket and have been driving for 20 years, also have NEVER had an AT FAULT accident. Also during event number two the hit and run where the driver fled, the garage that AVIVA insisted that I go to cause an additional 1400.00 in damages to my vehicle. I called their Ombudsperson who naturally sided with AVIVA and I had to pay to repair the 1400.00 in damages out of my own pocket. We had (I say "had" as I am in the process of cancelling) my vehicle, my wife's vehicle and my house insurance with AVIVA - Count yourself very lucky AVIVA that lawyers are so expensive and that you are simply not worth the headache because if I had the time and the energy I would sue them. You treat your customers like garbage. But boy do you guys like to make sure to collect your premiums. Sure like to break your contracts though. Dishonest, lying company.

Beware. Don't use Aviva.

Terrible experience. I called the first time (2 weeks ago) and was told the other guy's insurance was the only one I needed to contact since his insurance was going to pay for my damages... Now they tell me that I need to go through my insurance and they will contact his insurance... Called again and the customer service is brutal... It took 2 hours being on hold and then the call drops and get no callback. Every number they give me to call back makes me go through the options and put on hold for a minimum of 20 minutes every time. My car was damaged and the other person's insurance company was going to cover it. I don't know why it is so difficult to get this taken care of. I had my policy number, the other guy's policy number, a quote for a new glass... everything. All information was available and nothing is being taken care of. Why am I paying when I have to do all the work?

Accident forgiveness “NOT”

by Chow Mum on Apr 26, 2020
2 out of 5 stars

I am a female 61 years old never had an accident in my life haven’t had a ticket in more than 25 years. Two years ago on an icy rainy night, I literally hit a wall my car just slid! No damage to the wall no other cars involved but 10 thousand dollars to my car... I had accident forgiveness so one year after the accident my insurance went up Approximately 300 dollars? Year 2 after the accident my insurance has gone up an additional 600 dollars so in 2 years $9 hundred dollars? Where is the accident forgiveness? This is totally unacceptable and my agent keeps saying “well you had an accident” yes BUT I had accident forgiveness so how does that work? I work from home therefore it’s pleasure driving only. I park it in a garage it has onstar onboard snow tires in the winter BUT years of being a loyal customer I dinged $600 this 2020 renewal?

If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.

Very bad customer service. I have 3 insurance from this company and I'm cancelling all policies only for bad customer service.
