Awful and unfair charges and customer service who don't care! Bought a policy with them 23 days ago. I had to unexpectedly sell my car. Goskippy are trying to charge me £75 cancellation fee £118.45 - ‬£5.15/day instead of the £1.42/day pro-rata charge Customer service attitude: "It's set in our terms and conditions - do you want me to read them to you?" Complaint raised to their GoSkippy complaints department and will submit a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman if there's no resolution with fair cancellation charges! Read more Read less

I used different insurers over the years and no one requested this much proof, go skippy even asked for nino and requested me to download documents from dvla myself for them. They notified if I don’t provide the documents they will cancel my policy and charge me a cancellation fee . I cancelled voluntarily (£100 ) after only 3 weeks since contracting, rather not have dealings with them at all Read more Read less

Con artists charged me for 2 weeks and an extras £100 after I’d asked them to cancel my policy and no longer owned the car on it. Rude CSA on the phone with a right attitude on her. I wouldn’t insure with these again if it was free. Read more Read less
