About this product

Find out how genuine customers have found their experience with LittleBox by checking the Admiral LittleBox reviews on Smart Money People.

As a new driver, insurance premiums can be costly. A common way many people reduce the price of their premium is by installing a black box, a telematics device designed to measure how well you drive in order to reward safe drivers. Admiral’s Little Box policy does exactly this.

For new drivers, choosing a telematics policy can be a great way to save money. With Admiral’s LittleBox, safe driving sees you rewarded with a discount on your premium when it comes to renewal. On top of this, Admiral offers free tracking if your car is stolen, as well as regular feedback on your driving, highlighting any areas in which you could improve. If this is something you’re interested in, read our Admiral LittleBox reviews to find out more.

Have you had an Admiral LittleBox policy? Were you satisfied with the feedback that was given regarding your driving? Did you have to make a claim, and if so, how well was it dealt with? When it was time to renew, did you find the discounted price to be reasonable? Whether good or bad, leave an Admiral LittleBox review on Smart Money People today.

Excellent support. Highly recommend Reviewed on: 18th August 2023

Many small trips, AVOID

1
I thought I might give this insurance a go, but it turned out that you are a greater risk when you do many small local trips. After 2 weeks of a sad face and no clear guidance I was on the phone to the insurance company for about an hour. Ended with that smaller trips does effect your scoring. So a mum with a child is going to college, after school activities. I could be doing 5 to 7 trips a day. Marks me down as a high risk.... It doesn't matter if you are a good driver or a bad driver.

Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!

I have nearly 30 years experience driving with zero accidents, claims or penalties. Admiral gave me NO CHOICE regarding the black box because I have a full, clean Irish license. The three criteria for rating you limit you to driving only in your hometown, and for short journeys. If you drive outside your area you are marked down to zero. If you take more than two trips per day you are marked down to zero. The area I get 100% on is my driving, the other two criteria pull my overall score down to below average. The stupidity of this beggars belief. When I phoned and complained I was met with the rudest personnel I have ever come across. AVOID ADMIRAL AS A COMPANY AT ALL COST! Reviewed on: 6th August 2022

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!

Copied from another review because he absolutely nailed it Gives!! Gives little to no freedom and choice with your driving Admiral little box expects a driver to simply use a car for a commute, nothing more. If you attend college and want to pick up a friend on the way, you will be marked down for taking a longer route If you drive more than 5 miles away from your named home address you will be accused of unnecessary driving If you park in too many different places throughout the day, you will be marked with a bad score?! I spend a long time attempting to correct bad scores, which penalized where I could go and spend time, and today was sent an email telling me that it wasn't good enough and they would like to cancel the insurance. All this despite me driving under all speed limits, braking and accelerating extremely smooth, and some days not even driving the car to keep admiral happy. The way the scores are generated are a manipulation of the customer and simply shouldn't be tolerated therefore I have canceled the insurance and moved to a new provider. I do not recommend this insurance for anyone who plans to drive more than 15-20 minutes per day. Reviewed on: 29th June 2022

Admiral little box means that I only need the box for a few months and that’s it! I don’t need to worry about how well I’m driving and if it’s up to standard because the regular update emails keep me well informed. A great service. Reviewed on: 3rd September 2018
