Aviva France, a major operator in life insurance, long-term savings, assets management and damages insurance, and the SNCF, have announced the signature of an innovative partnership on the vehicle/train service, for one year’s duration.
All clients who took out their vehicle insurance with Aviva or Eurofil benefit from a 30% reduction on the transport of their vehicle on the train. This service thus allows them to travel in less stressful and less tiring conditions. This agreement also serves to decrease the risks of accidents during long journeys at peak periods (week-ends and holidays) and to reduce CO2 emissions in order to preserve the environment.
In order to benefit from this offer, the insured Parties must present their current car insurance certificate in the accredited shops, SNCF stations and travel agencies.
Furthermore, those who wish to leave their car at home and travel by train will be offered an advantageous rate for car hire at the station of arrival.
“We are celebrating this partnership with SNCF which will allow us to contribute an innovative service for the comfort of our clients, while making an important gesture to preserve the environment, given that durable development is a major part of our strategy”, declared Claude Zaouati, director of damages and health products of Aviva France and chairman and director general of Eurofil.
“For many years, Aviva has been recognised for its know-how on the subject of partnerships. So we can only congratulate ourselves on the trust displayed towards us by the SNCF car/train service”.
