GoSkippy Car insurance reviews (245)

Don't bother!!

Wish I'd researched these before taking out a car policy. All seemed well until I received a letter stating they have changed my direct debit date, even though I did not request this. The horrible attitude of the woman on the phone after arguing with me saying it didn't receive a letter really pushed me over the edge! I literally have a letter in my hand at this point. Then to be told they have to take my first payment to change the direct debit date and it will be sorted, to then be told it can't be changed after taking my first payment. To say I've been messed about is an absolute understatement and I am seriously an unhappy customer. Reviewed on: 16th November 2022

Unprofessional stay away scam

Is the only insurance in UK who is scam. I was with them no even 1 month and the cancel my insurance policy. Reviewed on: 26th October 2022

Worst insurance company ever

1
Quoted £350 for the year.. then hit with a £50 admin fee and a £50 direct debit set up fee..guess they are 2 different types of admin! My first car engine blew up after 2 weeks explained this to them and got exactly the same model and year but told it would cost another admin fee of £35 to change the reg number… now paying £50 a month instead of the £29 I thought I would be paying…can’t cancel otherwise there will be even more cancellation fees and admin fees to pay..probably be charged an admin fee if they reply to this review! seems like I’m not the only one who has been conned by these cowboys.. been driving 25 years and this is the worst experience I have ever had with a insurance company! Stay away! I will be not be renewing with them! F***king Useless! Reviewed on: 25th October 2022

Wish I could rate 0 stars - AVOID!

1
They attempted at every given opportunity to charge me "admin fees" for example I needed to change my address and the first time they said either do it on the portal or if you do it on the phone it'll cost £50. Then they locked my portal, so I had to call up and they said so to change your address its a £35 admin fee! No communication between customers or even other colleagues as they all told me different things. I tried to resolve issues and the customer care was just abysmal and dodged my questions to try and charge me more admin fees! Never really do reviews but they were so awful I thought I need to! AVOID AVOID AVOID!!! Reviewed on: 4th October 2022
