GoSkippy Car insurance reviews (258)

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

Bunch of crooks who are only interested in fleecing their customers. customer service is absolutely shocking. This company should be avoided by all means.

Cancelled my insurance only to be charged a default charge of £25. When challenged, i was advised to speak to creations who said they know nothing about this charge. This charge was eventually removed because i vigorously challenged it. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021

DO NOT USE THIS INSURANCE COMPANY

worst ever insurance company I have ever used, on comparison website I ticked the box for pillion cover included for my Motorbike insurance, took go skippy insurance as they came up the cheapest then when I got my documents the pillion cover was not included. So ended up having to cancel as I needed pillion cover and was charged £65 for this and wasn’t able to use my motorbike. KEEP AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!! Reviewed on: 6th August 2021

Shocking Company DO NOT USE

Do not use and do not trust this… Do not use and do not trust this company. Complete crooks and should be banned from trading. How can a premium change from £799pa to nearly £1100 for simply changing the start date by 8 days? Horrified!!!!!! Reviewed on: 1st July 2021

Absolutely shocking!!!

Don’t use this company unless you like throwing your hard earned cash away!! The first policy was cancelled as they said my sons points weren’t declared....sure we did! Anyway benefit of the doubt, lost £500+. My son is young and and we were finding it hard to get him insured on the car he had bought. ( 21 with a bloody good job so treated himself to high spec car). So got another quote from them checked and double checked all the details, everything above board.....same thing happened!!!! Would like to add that it all went through and he paid his deposit only to lose it again!! Taking this to the financial ombudsman! This company know exactly what they are doing and had now left my son uninsured with a car he can’t drive!!! RAGING!!! Reviewed on: 20th May 2021

I strongly warn against using this company!!!

Again I warn you against the appalling practices of this company, their customer service is absolutely RUDE and useless.... STAY WELL AWAY they practice with NO integrity or care for their customers and how their bad behaviours can detrimentally effect innocent clients!!!!! If I could give NO stars I would do yourself a favour and save yourself the stress use “any”other company!! Reviewed on: 1st April 2021

Avoid like the plague!

Absolute money grabbing *** purchased a new car midway through a policy - new quote was over double what other providers were offering. Then charged us £256 in cancellation fees! AVOID AVOID AVOID Reviewed on: 25th March 2021

Avoid

Avoid!!! Took out a insurance with them 80 pound a month it was, they telephoned be back and said the credit side off it had declined and wanted me to pay 200 a month this was one week later. They kept my 80 pound and wanted a another 75 pound cancellation fee because I couldn't afford 200 pound a month :/ because we had agreed on 80pound a month. Because I felt this was unfair I didn't pay the cancellation fee which they have now added 100 pound on top. Disgusting company!! Reviewed on: 11th January 2021
