    Steve is not with insure the box, That was his point, It cost him 2.8p per mile and not a thanks for your custom but your policy is now over or you can not driver any further unless you add topup mile at a silly sum.

    I had a family emergency recently and have double my mileage i dread to think what they would have charged me.

  • I recently had a text message from insure the box about topping up with more miles as i had exceeded my limit by almost 6000 miles!!!!!!??? why did it take them so long to tell me that i owed them almost another 3000 pounds!! when in june my portal told me i was still in credit. 'IF' i cancel my insurance will the 'dept' be forgotten too? its not so cheap after all..:mad: SCAM!!
  • When taking out a policy with insure the box, we were miss sold insurance, they said we had 15,000 miles on the year as they added abit more to the yearly price. now they're telling me I have almost 6000 miles of dept because they ONLY DO 6000 MILEAGE POLICY. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Did you take out the policy by phone?
    If you did, ask them for a transcript of the conversation.
