GoSkippy Car insurance reviews (265)

Its very bad I will recommend its bad idea to do insurance with them

It very bad experience I will not go with the company again for sure. Reviewed on: 10th December 2021

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

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

Hidden Fees

Charged my not one, but SEVEN different cancellation fees amounting to over £180. Really disgusting customer service and just a terrible way to conduct business. Highly recommend you to avoid them. Reviewed on: 17th November 2021

Disgusting company

My son took insurance with them paid £370 2 weeks later they wanted £800 with 2 days to pay it then was told if he cancels its £650, they cancelled policy as I refused to pay the £800 they are now sending letters to try get the £650 even tho they cancelled it, avoid this company they are only after your money Reviewed on: 17th September 2021

Absolute shocking

My car insurance was up for renewal. I received no email towards renewal . I then get a text message " if you want to continue with policy reply back 'yes' and we will do the rest". I didn't reply back as found a cheaper quote etc. I then get a text message saying my policy has been renewed and the direct debit is set for the 4th of every month???. How can anyone renew a policy when I haven't agreed to anything!?!. Stay clear of this company. Reviewed on: 4th September 2021

Disgusting rip off.

Had insurance for 26 days with them and they are now charging me £173 for cancelling the policy. They are very rude and abrupt on the phone and will not listen and argue with you. Would never use them again and would advise anybody not to use them. Reviewed on: 20th August 2021

Best price

Was the cheapest quote for the second year running. Reviewed on: 13th August 2021
