Review of the GoSkippy, Car Insurance:

Great company

Have renewed with them for over 4 years always offer the best quote Reviewed on: 21st July 2019

Avoid

Cheapest on Money Supermarket - beware you get what you pay for!!! Useless portal/incompetent customer service 0 out of 10, save yourself time and money and go for a well established insurer. Surprised Money Supermarket directed me to this nonsense of a company????? Money Supermarket? Reviewed on: 3rd September 2022

Worse car insurance

This is a worse car insurance ever. I highly recommend anything else but go skippy! Don't do the same mistake as me chose someone who will insure your car Reviewed on: 31st August 2022

Useless incompetent customer service

Pay the extra to get a well known insurer. I have spent hours on the phone having to sift through document policies to prove my nc as they immediately accused me of putting false information as my previous insurer only capturers 9+ years. My husband's licence summary can't be accessed via the DVLA website -a glitch - we had to call get a code, sent it to them and 2 days later they sent me a letter cancelling my insurance. I called and they hadn't even opened the email - no apologies. The woman couldn't get the code to work. I asked her what was I supposed to do and she just kept saying the same thing over and over again. I asked to speak to a supervisor which she refused. I have no option but to cancel my insurance and they will charge over £100!!!! Unbelievable!!! Not even able to speak to a manager! Avoid at all costs!!! Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

WORST CAR INSURANCE. AVOID.

Worst experience ever . Never again. This company should not exist. Worst costumer service ever. Please avoid this company. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2022

Good car insurance

Really easy to sign up, had no issue over the 12 months. Reviewed on: 14th August 2022

DO NOT USE

I had been insured via go skippy for many years then i received a letter saying my insurance had been cancelled spoke to customer service and they said i didnt send document of no claims when i was already insured by them they held my no claims document anyway! Reviewed on: 1st August 2022

Reap-offs

Imagine not having a Car again because you gave it back and Go shitty telling you to pay a Cancellation fee of such a ridiculous amount! They don't care about their customers, just out to make money! Even to make changes through the phone lines cost £50 and 15 online so good luck if you can't work out their ridiculous portal!!! After being with them for some time we are happy to get rid of them!!!!!! Reviewed on: 29th July 2022

Cancellation

Have 1 car with skippy, called them to ask if there are any discounts if i have all my cars with them (3) and they said no, so since there are company giving great discounts for having multiple cars with them i decided to ask for cancel,what she told me surprised me alot as i never heard of that, since i oay monthly i still have 800£ left to pay whoch are 4 or 5months, she says for me to cancel i need to pay cancellation fee plus all the money that is left to pay which is 800£+cancellation fee, i would never ever comeback to this company as i never heard before of it, i get abiut cancellation fee and to pay for the month whats left, although for whole time whats left, no, never ever here again after my insuranve is finished. !! Imagine if smth happebs or someone offers good price for your car and you want to sell it you will need to pay everything or pay monthly even you have no car, i cant believe ! Reviewed on: 28th July 2022

Scammers-Avoid like the plague

I sold my second car as times are tight then cancelled my DD to GoSpivs then called to cancel the policy. Amongst all the cancellation fees they are trying to charge me a £25 default fee. Horrible people to deal with I'm glad to be moving away from them. Reviewed on: 14th June 2022

Lucky Escape!

I was directed to GoSkippy by Money Supermarket... The price and cover was reasonable so I continued with online payment, the payment failed a couple of times so I called them. I told the person that answered the phone about the website payment system being down (I didnt have to, I could've just gone to the next quote) to be told in a blunt tone "there is a £20 admin fee for setting it up over the phone". Well I am very sorry but I am not going to pay extra because YOUR systems do not function correctly. I was patient to begin with and made a joke to hear the exact same words again, no further explanation. After hearing the same words repeated 3 or 4 times I just said I would look elsewhere! Its like getting drive-through food, you pay at the window, wait in line, but when you get to the food window they say you need to go inside to get your food (the phone call I could have avoided) when you get to the front door there is a bouncer requesting an entry fee. You are gonna argue that its not your fault the food cant come out the food window (GoSkippy website) you have forced me to enter the building, profiteering by shutting down your online payment system (the bouncer). To summarise, try treating customers and potential customers with a little respect and train your staff in basic customer service practices. I personally wouldn't send Hitler there to insure is tank! I have since been offered to call back in and they will waive the £20 fee but I have done my research now and this is my happy ending. I would AVOID at ALL COSTS. Reviewed on: 31st May 2022
