Insure the Box
A different way to insure your car
Insure the Box car insurance - What’s it all about
insure the box (www.insurethebox.com) offers drivers a very different form of car insurance which uses telematics technology.
Conventional car insurance providers rely solely on the information provided by drivers who are obtaining quotes to generate a price for cover, but they have no ability to actually asses the driver during the life of the policy. Drivers who choose insurethebox (the actual company name) agree to have a telematics device fitted into their car, a Clear Box, and this monitors certain factors about their driving.
Drivers purchase 6,000 Base Miles of cover at the outset of their policy, with the opportunity to earn Bonus Miles and, if necessary, they can buy Top-Up Miles.
In return for having details of their driving, such as braking, acceleration, time of travel and journey distance monitored, insurethebox offers several benefits for drivers and for their loved ones.
Car insurance which rewards safe driving
Unlike other telematics car insurance providers, insurethebox lets drivers use their cars whenever they want to, there's no curfew time and no penalties for driving at night. Drivers who choose to drive safely, on the safest roads, within the speed limit and during daylight hours are able to earn up to 100 Bonus Miles a month, which get added to their original Base Miles, meaning there may never be a need to buy additional miles.
Plus, the Clear Box acts as a theft tracking device if the car is stolen and, in the event of an accident, the team at insurethebox can offer an accident alert service to enable emergency services to attend the scene of an accident in the quickest time possible.
