Aviva recently took a deep dive into their home claims data from December and January over the last five years (2016 – 2020), revealing some of their most popular claims of Christmas past, including these rather weird and wonderful ones…
1. Aviva received 1 claim of Santa’s sleigh crashing into a house and damaging a doorway!
2. Claims have been made for 15 items being accidentally thrown out with discarded wrapping paper – including earrings, spectacles and hearing aids.
3. Aviva has received 68 claims over carpets and floors being stained or damaged by water from real Christmas trees leaking.
4. 11 people raised a claim after having put their feet through ceilings while going to the loft to bring down the Christmas decorations!
5. Handmaking Christmas cards doesn’t always go to plan! Claims include a pot of ink knocked onto a carpet, a phone and a china centrepiece smashed while writing Christmas cards – plus superglue on a sofa while making handmade cards. Whoops!
6. 5 reindeer (ornaments!) were stolen from customers’ gardens and claimed for via Aviva.
Wishing all our clients a very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year. Stay safe and enjoy the festivities.
