Go Skippy Car insurance & Footprint van insurance

Update on these companies:


Go Skippy Car insurance, Part of Eldon and Southern Rock have just made over 200 employees redundant in Bristol and moved all their facilities to Durban, South Africa.


You will no longer speak to a British agent but rather a South African/Indian Agent.


The Group Director Aaron Banks, A Proud sponsor of UKIP has dropped 200+ Jobs to make more money rather than secure UK Employment.


Footprint insurance services - The Commercial side of Go Skippy Car and Eldon Claims is also about to close.
I do not believe the staff have been made aware of this but due to a compliance issue they cannot move the van side to Durban for another 90 days till licences are granted.


If you deal with Go Skippy Car insurance or Footprint insurance services then I suggest you keep your payments on time as they are cancelling policies to get charges out to customers to build a new business hub in Durban, South Africa.


If you have either give you a call then it is your decision to buy a policy a few £££ cheaper but the problems will soon arise when you call for something.


Good luck to all the poor staff who were laid off to fill a UKIP supporters pockets in Africa.


Brightside is safe for another 1 years.
