Awful Awful Awful Awful Service!!!!!!!!!!

by Suk on Dec 6, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

I have been with aviva for about 5 years. This is the first time ever I got into an accident and they treated me very badly. Customer service is just horrible. Some of the employees should be in FBI the way they ask questions. I wasn’t even at fault and my belongings got damaged and of course insurance has to pay for the damages. But they asked me 10 times how this and that happened, sent all the proofs but still they were not satisfied, and they were acting like a cry baby and were dying to pay the damages around $700. I mean we pay high-end insurance not for you guys to ask these nonsense questions. Employees act like they own this company, and they have to pay outta their pockets. 4 members of my family have insurance with this company, and we all will take our business somewhere else. Will never ever recommend anyone to go with this insurance.
Moreover, they don’t even care about the reviews, as I read people aren’t satisfied with the services provided by them.

Stay away from Aviva

My car was flooded, and they did not total my car against the mechanics advise. I fixed the car and I had the same mechanical problem coming up afterward. It took them 3 months to reply to my request for a call back. I'm about to lose 20k car and the insursnce is not there to help when they supposed to, so they are not an actual insurance.

After 23 years with Aviva and never had a claim, I was in a bad accident by a careless driver. They put me through so much, not believing my injuries even when my doctors reports confirmed my injuries. Payout after 2 years didn't cover physio. Aviva is Terrible.

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.

Avoid this company to save your mental health

This Aviva car insurance is such a waste. I had an accident and I requested for claim. It’s been more than 4 weeks now, and they are not giving any decision on the claim. Adjuster is not answering the call and even not properly responding back to the emails. To the every single email you send them she would just send you a statement “your claim is still under review we don’t know if we are going to accept it or deny it” this is a clear mental harassment. I have my car in storage with repair shop and I have rental car with me. If you want to save your mental health don't go with Aviva.

The adjuster literally did not return emails or phone calls

by Adam Barras on Aug 15, 2024

I received a bill related to my auto accident and I sent the info to my adjuster the same day. I did not hear back at all for 9 days, in which I left emails and a voicemail. The bill was due the next day, so I called in to the generic line and let them know my situation. They were able to get a hold of the adjuster while I was on hold within minutes. I then sent the details to the person I spoke with on the phone, and they sorted it out, not my adjuster. My adjuster then wanted me to call in to the payee of the bill to let them know why the payment is going to be late when it was 100% on their fault.

I received a different bill after the above situation. I sent to my adjuster the same day. Once again, I did not hear from them at all. I put in a complaint after 6 days of not hearing back to complain about the first situation along with this one. The customer care got back to me within 1 day, but I still did not hear back from my adjuster. I then heard back from my adjuster the next day (8 days after my initial email) which I can only assume was because of the complaint.

They say adjusters should reply within 24-48 hours. This is not the case. My adjuster literally did not return any communication until I sent a complaint in, and that was on the 2nd occasion of them not returning an email or call.

When I asked to see if they could provide anything for the complete lack of communication, they referred me to the ombudsman, which this clearly does not apply. The adjuster obviously doesn't care about their clients if they couldn't take a few minutes to let me know they've received the information I sent them. I've been a customer for ~13 years and will be changing insurance companies.

Will not would not advise anyone to use this insurance company

by Crossfire on Jul 26, 2024

Very poor customer service. You’re lucky to hear from them once a week, dragging the situation out and absolutely low ball you. They sell you 1500 in car rental but can’t use it all cause as soon as they send you an offer they end all outgoing money in one week. Even if you’re unsatisfied. They also make it so hard to get a hold of that you just run out of time to settle. I run a business and will be sharing my experience with all business platforms that I am a part of so they don’t have my experience.

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.

2 claims now and both terrible

by Yipi on Apr 11, 2024

1st not my fault but took way too long to settle and was told outcome would come in a week. 3 months+ later. Now waiting on another claim and they cannot be found. Horrible service for the money spent. My brokers are doing the best they can, but this company is terrible, and I agree with the warning of others recommending going else where. Anywhere for that matter than Aviva. Take a chance with that dodgy company from India before trusting these folks. More or less at least some factors in play.

DO NOT PURCHASE AVIVA CAR INSURANCE - THEY IGNORE CLAIMS

by Just a good guy getting bullied by Aviva on Mar 28, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

I have been disgusted by Aviva, there staff are ignorant and abusive and the simply fail to respond to claims in a reasonable time frame.
I had a vehcile accident on the 6th of October 2023, I filed a claim on the 20th of October 2023... it is now almost 6 months later on the 28th of March 2024 and the ignorant and incompentant staff will simple not respond to a request for an update.
I have send over 20 emails on an almost weekly basis and every single email is ignored.
These people are horrible, ignorant, rude and simply people who go about their lives punishing others and blaming others for their own unhappiness.

Claim nightmare

by L. Meadows on Mar 25, 2024

Horrible appraiser! First they offer $3,000 on an $18,000 car.
Then take 4 weeks to say it can't be repaired as subframe isn't available in North America. So will give me $3,600 to source a frame overseas and arrange repairs myself.
Yeah, $3,600 isnt even close to enough. And a wrecking yard subframe? That sounds safe.

Absolutely, dreadful company

by Pamela Jean Foyle on Feb 27, 2024

This company is not worth your time of day. Do not insure your vehicle with them. They happily take your money and provide you with little to no customer service. Communication is horrible, the adjusters have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about, they love to ignore your emails. They deny as much as possible and do not want to be accountable for anything. I have nothing good to say about this really disgusting company.
