Aviva is the stingiest car insurance company in Canada. Sure their premiums are generally reasonable which is why they are one of the largest insurance companies, however, as soon as you get into an accident and need treatment they will do anything to avoid paying.
I am a personal injury lawyer and any time I get an Aviva Accident Benefits file they try to designate it as minor injury and only pay out $3.5k for treatment. I have had files where my client had severe PTSD or tears in the shoulder or pre-existing injuries which make it impossible to resolve their accident-related injuries under the $3.5k limit (this should get you out of the Minor Injury Guideline and increase your entitlement to treatment to $65k), and they all get labelled as minor injury claimants.
Never go with Aviva.
If I could give them 0 stars, I would. The worst insurance company ever. The customer service is disorganized and unprofessional. The claims department is the slowest process and only creates more stress for their customers. I’d literally pay double or triple to insure myself anywhere else!!! Don’t waste your time or money here
Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.
I have never had a more easy and simple claim process, ever! I made the call about hail damage to my car and had an appointment to have the estimate 2 days later. The next day after the estimate it was determined it was a total loss, and very fair compensation offers were made by telephone. I accepted an offer and was reimbursed exactly one week to the claim date, wow. The service was amazing and personable. They were compassionate as to my welfare, and kind and clear as to the conditions of my coverage. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company to anyone. I am completely satisfied, and then some.
Currently on hold to add a new vehicle to my policy. It’s been over 2 hours.
But they appreciate me waiting and I’m very important them.
I think if I was they would have picked up by now...
Thanks to Aviva, I've got no insurance. They claim I never updated my address when I moved, which is false. They then proceeded to send me notices of failed payment only through mail to my house. The problem is they didn't update my address like I had requested, so I never received any warnings. They say I never called at all. Don't trust this company. They make costly mistakes. I should not be unable to drive because my credit card didn't process. It was a valid and functioning method of payment and could have been easily resolved had I received a phone call or email. Aviva is the worst. Their auto renewal is a scam. Oh, by the way I have a perfect driving record and I've been driving for 10 years. Aviva just walked away from free money.
My three-year-old car was classified as not economical to repair.
The claim adjuster guided me through the process professionally,
helpfully and I have received the payment three days after the reached settlement.
I have this car insurance for over a year, the payment amount went up by almost 100$ because of my ticket. There is no problem with that but the thing is every time I asked my broker something, she always texts me back late or sometimes never answered. She just calls when it comes to money, also during the pandemic I got laid off from work, I asked my broker if she can delay my payment because I don’t have work she refused that request because the company Aviva is a private company... Well, I’m gonna transfer to another car insurance... I don’t wanna waste my money with this company ever again.
RBC Insurance I would not go with them! Too much money! Add $142 a month on top of crazy!
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.
The Accident Benefits team in Markham Ontario have been a nightmare to deal with. I have been fighting with them for 3.5 years and now have to take them to court. I have been forced to pay out thousands of dollars in rehab and I was the one who was rear ended. They hired their own doctor to review my claim who said my injuries were not serious and were not as a result of my accident. Do not wait until you need them to find out they are scam artists. Save your money and go elsewhere.
I had called the claim depart to file a claim under the other party due to they hit me the person I spoke to said I can not do that and I should file with my own company, the person hung up on me, I called back the person I spoke to was so rude to me and would not let me talk, worst experience ever!
