Worst scammers

I went with them as I thought was cheaper I've ended up paying more with them that I would if I'd stayed with the co op AVOID AT ALL COSTS Reviewed on: 4th April 2023

AVOID!

Avoid this company at all cost! They are absolute scammers and their customer service and complaints departments are completely incompetent! Second year policy with them and they requested a bunch of documents including a no claims proof which would obviously come from them, other documents all with sensitive data which I emailed 20 times across 3 different email addresses from 2 of my email addresses and they claimed they haven't received it or couldn't open it. I requested several times in writing to provide me a list of acceptable proof of address document list as I don't have utility bills and they ignored each and single one of them, they would only respond with the same message asking to provide a utility bill. They have also ignored my requests in writing to provide their data collection and retention policies as I am now worried what has happened with my personal documents copies which included bank details, address, NI, employment details from payslip. While they have given me a deadline of 7 days to provide documents, they claim they haven't received the ones I sent and the rest they keep ignoring apart from threatening me to cancel my policy and charge me fees. Absolute scammers, this will be my last time ever with them! I rather pay double! Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

Credit card fraud

My credit card was recently hacked. A fraudulent payment was made to GoSkippy with whom I have never had dealings. Despite extensive efforts to contact them I received no response whatsoever. I would never entrust my business and confidential details to a company with such flagrant disregard to the risks of fraud. AVOID at all costs! Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

Avoid at all cost

Total nightmare I had to pay for delivery of my new motorcycle because go skippy told me because my new motorcycle was not registered with the DVLA yet I could not be insured but when I rang other professionals companies I was told it’s not a problem. So my bike is still sat in the garage unable to use it cowboy company avoid Reviewed on: 2nd March 2023

Rubbish

Below standard customer service. Spoke to at least 5 people who work here, none of whom were knowledgeable about the industry they work in. I experienced lots of hidden fees and cancelling my insurance with GoSkippy was ridiculously expensive. Reviewed on: 25th February 2023

Stay Away!

This company is the worst car insurance company I have ever experienced. They are constantly asking for more information to be sent and threatening to cancel the policy. I have never had to talk to a car insurer so much, just a complete waste of time. Reviewed on: 15th February 2023

Never using GoSkippy again.

£150 monthly insurance. First payment was May. Was in an RTA 3 months later that wasnt my fault. (August). My car was a write off. But was still paying insurance until December. (£600 worth of insurance for a car I didn't even own. They valued my car at £1830 and took the premiers out the payout which included the 4 months I didn't have a car (Aug-Dec) When I asked about the value/payout they insisted my car is worth £1830. So when I asked for the refund from Aug-Dec as I had already paid twice. They vauled my car at £1230. Exactly £600 difference so they didn't have to give me a refund. Don't bother going with GoSkippy, they expect you to do all the work, have very rude customer services and lie to you so they don't have to give you a refund Reviewed on: 10th February 2023

Not happy

For Everything they will charge you with disgusting high charges. All bad with this company. To be honest I can't say something nice about this company. If I could put 0 stars so I will make it Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Avoid at all Costs

I was hit by a third party and suffered damage to my vehicle. Go Skippy refused to repair my car,provide a courtesy car or even allow me to claim through my policy despite me being Fully Comp. Reaching out to them they became more and more uncooperative. I Made numerous complaints without success. My car was left unrepaired and unroad worthy. I will be taking the issue to the financial ombudsman Please avoid Go Skippy at all costs. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2023

Avoid at all costs

Had 2 cars insured with them , scrapped one and asked them to cancel the isurance on it provided make model and Reg for it and they cancelled the wrong one the woman on phone offered me a new quote that was 4 times the amount I was paying before even tho they were at fault and the effort they made to tell me about cancellation was 0 send an email that’s all Reviewed on: 23rd January 2023
