Adrian Flux black box reviews
Abi Dye, 19, has been using FluxScore black box insurance since she passed her driving test.
“I have had the app for nearly two years now,” she said. “I find it very easy to use and it also doesn’t restrict my driving as much as I thought a black box would after I passed my test.
“The app allows you to keep track of journeys, check how many miles the vehicle has done within the renewal year and also gives you daily updates on how your driving is doing.
“One aspect of the app that I really love is that it allows you to see how much your premium is going to go down (or up) depending on how you are driving. This definitely pushed me to drive a bit safer so that I can save as much money as I possibly can when it comes to renewing the policy!”

The app is showing incorrect data – what can I do?
At Adrian Flux, we have a dedicated FluxScore team. So if you do find that there’s a glitch with the GPS or you have any other issues with the box, let us know. Our FluxScore team is here to make sure everything’s working correctly so you aren’t penalised for anything that isn’t your fault.
What happens if I get into an emergency?
Insurance is already expensive for young drivers, but pair this with a The FluxScore telematics box includes GPS tracking to locate you in an emergency. The device can also be used as a phone between yourself and our team, meaning that even if there is an accident, we can call the emergency services for you.
I had a bad day of driving – will I still be penalised?
A one-off bad day of driving is less likely to be penalised than constant unsafe driving over days, weeks or months. So it may be possible to recover from the odd bad day by returning to safe driving habits. Your policy provider is more concerned about consistently unsafe driving as it can signal that you’re at a higher risk of getting into an accident.
It’s worth bearing in mind that the black box reflects how the car is driven and does not differentiate between drivers. This means that if you share your car with siblings, parents or someone else, the black box will track everyone’s driving.
If you get a warning, don’t worry – you can use the information included in the notification to improve your driving.
Warnings are given if you drive dangerously. This includes instances where you drive above the road’s speed limit. There are three different levels of alerts depending on the severity of the dangerous driving.
If you receive a push notification caution, named drivers on the FluxScore policy will receive map access to show you exactly where the mistakes were made during the journey. This helps you see where you might have gone wrong and what you can do to improve your driving.
If you receive a warning, you’ll also be told that poor driving could lead to your renewal premiums increasing. Accruing three warnings can lead to your policy being suspended. The three-strike system resets after 30 days.
Note that if you disagree with anything that has been flagged, please get in touch with us so we can look into your case.
