Help! New Black box insurance

Hi everyone! After 5 years of black box insurance with Tesco Bank they have just pulled the rug out from under my feet by notifying me that they are no longer offering car insurance, 3 weeks before the policy is renewed! 

So can any recommend an affordable ( ‹£1500 per annum) car insurance to cover my daughters (23 and 20 year old students) insurance preferably using a Black box to keep the costs down?

Thanks for your help in advance

    Don't assume a black box policy is cheaper.

    Have always found cheaper non black box polices for our daughter and never paid more than £900 from age 17 and nearly half that at 21.

    Closest we have come is that one policy required a dash cam to be fitted.
