I recommend you DO NOT touch this company I cancelled my policy as my car was sold on, the cancellation was actually an extremely simple process with nothing I could see online suggesting hidden costs for cancelling - however this is where things took a turn for the worst - 16 days later they finally confirmed the policy was cancelled I then receive a letter to advise I owed £130 with no explanation as to what this charge was for. I then emailed to ask what the charge was for before I made the payment. As any normal person would in this situation This was at the start of September - 2 weeks later I am yet to hear back from them explaining what the charge is for. In the meantime, they sent this “charge” to a collections agency they work with called the ICB, as a scaremonger tactic to force me to pay - Unfortunately this worked as I was afraid this would affect my credit score. I have paid this fee now to which I have NO idea what its in relation too - and I am yet to receive an explanation for this fee. I am STILL waiting in Goskippy to actually email me back….

Avoid at All Costs Worst Insurance Company Ever!

Avoid at All Costs - Worst Insurance Company Ever! GoSkippy Insurance is an absolute nightmare. I went an entire year without making a single claim, yet they **blatantly refused** to honor my No Claim Bonus. This company is nothing short of a scam, robbing loyal customers of what they rightfully deserve. I provided every piece of documentation they asked for, but they still found a way to weasel out of giving me my bonus. The customer service was horrendous—rude, unhelpful, and completely indifferent to my situation. It’s clear they only care about squeezing every last penny out of their customers, with no regard for fairness or honesty. Do yourself a favor and **stay far away** from this disgraceful company. If you want to protect yourself, **choose a reputable insurer** that actually honors its commitments. GoSkippy is a total **fraud.** Reviewed on: 2nd September 2024

Do NOT trust GoSKippy for Provisional Licences !

1
I completed an application via the CompareThemarket platform, GoSkippy came out the best . My aplication comprised of me and my son ( who has held a provisional license for more than 2 years) , all this information was supplied at the point of application. 2 weeks later they advised the Insurer had 'exercised their right to cancel ' as they did not cover any Provisional license holder of more than 2 years. How was I to know this ? This is your mistake not mine yet you want to fine me £187 ! Beware of Goskippy , unprofessional and untrustworthy with 0 Customer Service ! Reviewed on: 31st August 2024

TERRIBLE COMPANY... AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

1
I had asked them about updating the drivers licence details on one of the drivers on my policy who had to exchange their UK licence for an EU licence. After they quoted nearly £60 to make the change I asked them to NOT go ahead with the change. They went ahead anyway and made the change, but changed the wrong driver's details. They have now been hounding me for payment of this change, as well as another balance of £35 they seem to have just added to my account for which they don't seem to be able to provide any reason or details. I have asked them multiple times to reverse the charge for the incorrect change they made to the policy and have also requested details of the additional charge. But they simply refuse to answer my questions and just keep threatening to refer the matter to debt collectors if the amount is not paid. Reviewed on: 19th August 2024
