Review of the GoSkippy, Car insurance:

WORST INSURANCE COMPANY EVER! DO NOT USE!

1
I am being chased from a debt collection agency on behalf of Go Skippy of a sum £216.16 when I cancelled my policy with them last year. They falsely advised me when I had my Insurance out with them! I was involved in an accident where the 3rd party insurer went in the back of me! The 3rd party insurer and his insurance company admitted full liability to me on the phone and also spoken with my insurance company Go Skippy at the time and informed them the same. (easy claim, yes?, NO!) Well as the claim was proceeding Go Skippy said to me that they 3rd party insurer didn't admitted full liability and that they never did, they never advised me that they did either. So I was basically lying according to them. So anyway they closed down my claim and told me that there is nothing else they can do as I was 3rd Party Fire Theft and to seek a no sale no fee solicitor. Had I have been completely naive and took their word for it, then I would have lost alot of money. But instead I called the 3rd party insurer and a company called Enterprise who were helping with the claim and got the case reopened and the 3rd party insurer paid it to me direct. Not even such much as an apology for how they have treated me throughout this whole ordeal. And if that wasn't enough they are chasing me for debt that I don't owe them. I'm still trying to sort this out and have been on the phone to them for the past 1H 30Mins and still no resolution yet. STAY WELL CLEAR OF THE INSURANCE COMPANY! Reviewed on: 9th March 2018

Ridiculous cancellation fees.

Ridiculous cancellation fees. Send you threatening letters. Just days after you cancel your policy. One you the worst companies I have ever dealt with. Would advise anyone to steer well clear. Cheap and cheerful. Reviewed on: 22nd April 2024

I recently purchased insurance from them, but after 40 days, I requested an upgrade to business insurance for 2000 miles annually. Unfortunately, they informed me that they do not offer such coverage. When I asked to cancel, they charged me £320 for cancellations. I'm disappointed with their service and would advise others to be cautious when dealing with them. Reviewed on: 8th March 2024

Affordable and easy to use

Went with GoSkippy as they offered a good price fully comprehensive and no black box, it’s not the cheapest given this is only my second year of driving however compared to my first year it was a great price. No claims made yet so I can’t review on that but they have been great so far Reviewed on: 6th March 2024
