GoSkippy Car insurance reviews (270)

Very disappointed

1
I would give them "0", if there is any option. I had a policy with Go Skippy, ref: AHMJ35PC01/BSPC7071131519. I will be going abroad for few months due to some personal matters. Hence, I had to sell my car and cancel the insurance which I did on the 26th of April'2022. In order to exit from this policy, I now have to pay £187.53; I am utterly surprised that I have to pay a hefty price whereas I only had 3 months left to the contract. In addition, I had already paid 4 additional days from 27th April to 30th April which is worth of £20 (approx). I have found the whole situation is terrible and unfair, beyond imagination!! Moreover, I was asking to review and reconsider the cancellation costs with the Management team when I talked to the Customer Service Representative on the 26th of April. Since then, I haven't received any call from them. I would not recommend Go Skippy to anyone. You will be ended in a situation where you will be rather disappointed than get a fair service. Thank you. Reviewed on: 3rd May 2022

I insured our car with them last year 2021, I then insured with a different firm this year and they want on to renew without my permission, even set up a direct debit without my authorisation! Which is illegal! Called them to cancel the renewal and they continued to renew. Save yourself the grief of waiting on the phone forever. Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

My son was involved in a traffic accident that was not his fault. They did settle the cost of the car however they took the money he had remaining to pay as he did pay monthly. He then was told that he had 14 day's to insure another car or they would cancel his policy. We told them he was not fit to drive and ask them could we have an extension they gave us 7 day's extra. He still has 7 months on his policy Stay well away Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Go Skippy to the skip!

Total dick heads , canceled my car insurance behind my back. I was told that I was due £35 then when I tried to pay it , they said that it was coming from my direct debit. I told them that I had cancelled my direct debit as they had cancelled my insurance. They wouldn't take the payment over the phone. Two weeks later I got a letter from the creation of company asking for money. I phoned them to be told to phone Go Skippy to then be told it was £125 a jump if £90 in two weeks! Avoid these scam artists! Reviewed on: 8th December 2021

DO NOT USE THIS INSURANCE COMPANY

1
customer service is absolutely shocking. This company should be avoided by all means. Auto renewed my policy that Ididn’t want, I received no email towards renewal Then sent me letters and acted upon them before they arrived at my house (give you 7 days letter takes 10 to arrive) they requested proof of address and would not accept that I live with parents so there are no letters that they would accept as proof. customer services are just not interested!

my car was stolen on 9/9/21,my son in law was insured driver, they had said there not paying out which is like (4000) because the car is registered to me, he was not even asked if he was the registered keeper at the time,they had me provide everything reciepts proof purchase everything under the sun which i provided and more,but are still refusing and said not paying out.ive asked for the recorded message off the call to arrange the insurance, i will not let this rest and will take it to the ombudsman,this is a lot of money and cant afford another car,living on the breadline as it is !!!!!

Avoid at ALL costs!!!

It's not to often that I describe a company as a "set of b******** ", but I think I have now very much found that company, and "GoSkippy" is at the very forefront of that description. My partner took out an insurance policy with this "broker" who immediately charge £50 to go and "find you insurance". At the time we didn't know that they were effectively, well... Scammers as they were listed on the gocompair website. 1 Day later, we recieved an email telling us to call them then they stated that they had to cancel the policy because of a "Failed Credit Check". Now... That's fair enough, but A) Why didn't they not let me know before they entered an agreement and created a policy with ,me and B) Why was my refund at £11 after THEY decided to cancel the policy. They say that insurance is insurance, I don't blame you, I used to think the same until I came across this horrible company. Also, You won't find any mention of this in their terms and conditions. I was wrong about insurance and I wish I had just paid the extra £15 from a real insurance company. I feel like I've been f***** over, but legally. This company is the scum of the earth, oh and you can expect words like "Won't" and "Cant" in these calls. Reviewed on: 17th November 2021
