So I'm 18 now renewing my policy for 2nd year and in all fairness they've been absolutely spot on I've had a 400 pound refund after 90 days and since has stayed the same even tho I've drop from a score of 90 to 70 never had any phone calls and the box doesnt seem to be strict in any way

I purchased this insurance for myself and 18 year old son. I was sceptical after reading some reviews but can I take a minute to inform yous. We have been insured for 6 months now and already had a reduction to the policy. It’s my son that drives the most and he is in late at the weekend but earlier through the week and his scores are really good on the app. As long as your sensible this is a great insurance company and I would highly recommend it.

Overall, reasonably fair when it comes to assessing your driving via the telematics box. Obviously sometimes it is required to go above the speed limit for safety reasons (getting out of the way of emergency vehicles for example) and I've never been penalised for this. Obviously if you speed continuously, it will register on your score and will lead to your insurance being cancelled. I'll be honest, I corner fast and I brake late. I still managed to get a discount, my driver score throughout the policy seemed to stagnate at about 73. The only factor that seems to be really heavily weighted is the "dangerous times" metric. Drive after 11pm for any length of time and it will take months for your score to recover. Only other sticking point is that you have to pay £90 to have the box removed at the end of the policy, despite the fact it doesn't belong to you, it resides in your car and you supposedly aren't allowed to touch it.

The only bad thing with the policy is that the black box you have installed will malfunction if you have a heated/anti-glare front windscreen. Apparently the GPS signal cannot always get through. Meaning I have been marked down on my driving because the box recorded a whopping 90mph on the M62! (I have never gone above 75mph). The staff that work there (in my experience) have all been pleasant and quick to resolve any issues. I have claimed on my windscreen as in winter my cars windscreen cracked, £50 later it was organised within the week. Please note- the claim hasn't increased my renewal premium. However, don't get sucked in by thinking you will earn lots of money back, because you wont. You will for your first month then wont after that. They constantly want improvement even when it is physically impossible- slight problem with the technology I believe. Young drivers dash board is good and interesting to use. I would recommend this company.
