Took out car insurance for my son through Haven, via Acorn Insurance - his first policy as a new driver, included a "Black Box". The box monitored his driving habits, which isn't such a bad thing, but he also had limited mileage allowed, and fines of 15p per mile for exceeding his allowance. Tried to up the mileage allowance as he had change places of work and had to travel further - but their additional costs for doing this were prohibitive - so had to stump up an additional £50 per month for the additional mileage he was covering. Have now CANCELLED the policy as have found an alternative insurer who is over £1000 less per year AND with no black box or additional charges. Worth the hundreds of pounds Haven charged for cancelling their policy!!!
