These guys charged me £142 for cancelling a policy within the 12 month period, reason for cancelling in the first place was because I added my sister as an additional driver and these guys took my premium from £70 monthly to £162! I decided to take my sister off the policy after the first month as she was no longer using the car and instead of going back to the initial £70 I was paying, it went up to £93 so I decided to cancel and take my business elsewhere. As a result, I got that £142 bill after cancelling. Absolutely ridiculous! Read more Read less

    Go Skippy, skipped off with my money

Ordered a brand new Cupra Terramar, which on the day of delivery the dealership- Hortons, Lincoln, couldn’t get started and after 7 weeks had still not got it working. I had insured it on that day of delivery fully comp. with Go Skippy….£523.00 and after 7 weeks cancelled the insurance because Cupra & the dealership couldn’t tell me when I would get the car or if it would be replaced.GoSkippy would not transfer the policy to another vehicle and the cost of termination…..wait for it…£297.00. and the car had never left the compound. So the moral of the story is, get a car that works, from a dealership & manufacturer that knows what they’re doing and NEVER insure with GoSkippy! Read more Read less

I had to cancel my insurance after a month due to a change of circumstance, Go Skippy Charged me £219 cancellation fee and the customer service agent was very rude. This is day light robbery and unjust practice. Read more Read less

Steer clear of this insurance company - I joined them initially due to the good reviews I saw but they are horrendous… Cancelled my insurance on the 28th January, they then took out a payment on the 28th February of £220.00 and then 2 days later an additional payment of £25.00 totalling £ 245.00. After querying this with them they are refusing to refund me the money they took from my account and now are stating I owe them £33.00!! There phone system is beyond appalling and customer service is dreadful. Read more Read less

I was unlucky enough to have to scrap my car half way through a policy and not only did they charge a £75 cancellation fee but also an additional charge of £36 broker’s fee. Out of a total of almost £200 potential refund I received only £85 they’re disgusting. Read more Read less

    HIGH hidden fees - avoid

    I have been with Go-Skippy for around 7 months, and needed to cancel recently due to my cars engine failing and becoming a write off.... I have been with Go-Skippy for around 7 months, and needed to cancel recently due to my cars engine failing and becoming a write off. Within my documents it stated that it would be a £75 cancellation fee as it falls outwith the 14 days cooling off period After a not so pleasant conversation with one of their "customer service" employees. I was told my cancellation fee would be £166, with other fees being stated in their policy documents (not clear and definitely not stated on day of purchase) Avoid this company as they don't have their customers best interests as part of their business, especially if you have to cease your policy due to unforeseen circumstances. Would not recommend to anyone, nor would I ever take out a policy with them again. Read more Read less

Do NOT get your car insurance from GoSkippy, I've been with them for over 10 years, and now they are refusing me for next year, all because I reported I had a small incident. And yet the other driver hasn't reported the incident. The 1st one ever and now I'm to high risk. This is how they treat long standing customers. Read more Read less
