Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

"Young drivers are often faced with costly insurance premiums. HughesDrive has been created to help offer more affordable options to young drivers in Northern Ireland and depending on your driving style you can earn weekly treats! HughesDrive is a telematics App that monitors your driving. It records metrics such as how often you drive, how far you go, your acceleration, braking, and swerving. It uses this information to calculate a personalised driving score, which you can view on your secure in-App dashboard. Please download the App for free after purchasing a HughesDrive Telematics Policy. If your car doesn’t have Bluetooth, simply request a Beacon in the App and it will be sent to you in the post. If you have a green driving score over a consecutive seven-day period from Monday midday, you will be eligible for a treat! Every Monday at midday an eGift will be available in the HughesDrive App. Next steps: To complete the on-boarding process please complete the following steps. 1. Download and install the HughesDrive App 2. Once the App has been successfully installed, please login using your email address you provided to us when activating the policy and the password that has been emailed to you. You will be prompted to amend your password on initial login. 3. Provide photographs of the insured vehicle as instructed by the HughesDrive App. 4.
