"Aviva scored highly across all areas of our customer service survey and particularly strongly for the ease of their quoting and buying journeys, and the level of service provided at this time."
Congratulations to Aviva!

Our Insight team reported that Aviva achieved one of the highest product rankings, with a range of products closely aligned to what customers told us they value most in the 2025 Customer Appeal Survey. Aviva stood out for a product range that consistently delivered value and reliable service over the past 12 months.
This combined with their service scores made them a clear winner in the Car Insurance category.
