Review of the GoSkippy, Car insurance:

Worst scammers

I went with them as I thought was cheaper I've ended up paying more with them that I would if I'd stayed with the co op AVOID AT ALL COSTS Reviewed on: 4th April 2023

Do NOT trust GoSKippy for Provisional Licences !

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.

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

Absolutely appalling, they basically stole my money

Absolutely appalling company, token money from me without my permission. Basically money was stolen and they refused to give it back Reviewed on: 13th August 2024

Fraudulent behaviour

I purchased a motorbike insurance with Goskippy providing all relevant data for a price of over £500. A week after receiving insurance documentation, I received a request to provide pictures of my driving license. Goskippy subsequently claimed I had to pay a surcharge of over £100 (i.e. over 20% of total insurance cost) as my driving license was issued in 2020 (and not 2010 as I indicated). Their understanding was however wrong as 2020 was issuance of my latest license (since the previous one expired) but I first received an insurance in 2010. I provided my explanations to the company and never heard back until a few weeks ago when Goskippy notified me of cancellation of my insurance and reimbursement of £320, therefore charging me over £180 for effectively 3 weeks of insurance. I have written numerous emails to Goskippy trying to rectify the situation and reinstate the insurance without them acknowleding my point. I have also called with no response. They should be fined for fraudulent behaviour and confiscated their license Reviewed on: 6th August 2024
