Don't get the hump, get telematics car insurance instead

Buying car insurance doesn't have to be frustrating, especially if you're a young driver or a low-mileage motorist, because, although it usually seems that you get the short straw when it comes to motor cover, insurethebox offers telematics car insurance which is ideal for drivers who otherwise seem to get a raw deal.

Metaphor ahoy with insurethebox
Yes, when you search for the cheapest car insurance, if you're a young or low-mileage driver you've probably experienced all the metaphors, clichés and exaggeration out there:

• Insurance providers have got you over a barrel
• Searching for cheap car insurance is like searching for a needle in a haystack
• Car insurance will cost you an arm and a leg

And there's millions more, literally millions – but here at insurethebox we believe in one, plain truth about our car insurance policies:

• If you're a safe and positive driver you could save money with telematics car insurance.

It's simple – no hyperbole, no eulogising – if you drive sensibly, during daylight hours and only do around 6,000 miles a year, insurethebox could save you a packet (oops!), we mean money.

Telematics car insurance explained
Firstly, when you take out cover with insurethebox we will fit a small telematics device in your car. The Clear Box monitors key aspects of your driving, such as how far you've driven, the speeds travelled at, the time of day you drove, the roads you travelled upon and your driving quality, eg braking, acceleration and corner handling.

We analyse this information and then display it for you to see on your customer portal which you have exclusive access to through the insurethebox website.

Drivers who exhibit positive driving traits and behaviour have the ability to earn up to 100 Bonus Miles a month to add to the initial 6,000 Base Miles which they bought at the outset of their policy.

Other insurance providers and news reporters call this type of cover different things, such as: curfew car insurance, GPS car insurance, tracker car insurance and black box car insurance. We call it "good-sense" car insurance, because if you are in a driving group which is usually penalised because of other road user's bad habits, insurethebox's telematics car insurance gives you the chance to create your own insurance profile as you drive, so when you come to renew, insurethebox can give you a car insurance quote which is tailor-made for you.
