Frequently asked questions
Can I be covered to drive straight away with this insurance?
As this is a pay per mile policy you will need to fit your tag and pair it with the Marmalade Young Driver app on your phone to enable measurement of the miles used. The box should arrive with you within a couple of days of purchase and your cover will start as soon as the black box device and phone app pair successfully.
How long are the miles I purchase valid for?
Miles will be valid for 12 months from purchase, so you have plenty of time to use them if you are not driving that often. The great news is that for every year you stay claim free, you will earn a years No Claims Discount!
How do I top up the miles on my insurance?
No-one wants to run out of miles mid-journey, so we've made it easy by arranging for your policy to top up automatically when you have 50 miles remaining. You will be asked to select your preferred top up amount when you purchase, from 100 - 500 miles. If you reach a point you no longer need the insurance, you can simply give us a call and we will cancel the policy and refund any miles remaining since your last top up.
