    One further question if I may. It's 3 different places for 3 different jobs (not the same emloyer). Do I count milage getting to one of them as commuting and the other 2 as business use, or is my journey to all 3 business use? Thanks again.

    What are you declaring your occupation(s) as?    Are all 3 jobs within the same sector?   
    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 2.60% of current retirement "pot" (as at end May 2025)

    You will need to provide details of all your jobs.  This is provided for in the quote engines.

    Do the quote engines even differentiate between social mileage and commuting mileage?

    If you get business use, it won't matter.

    I always have business use and it never really costs much, sometimes even cheaper than without.
    Interesting, increasing my business miles puts my quote up...

    They do indeed, they ask how many miles total and how many of these are business, or a slight iteration on this.
