From the article: "The scheme is voluntary, and will only offer discounts rather than price increases, which could be worth up to £350 a year. However, Admiral has not ruled out expanding firstcarquote."

This is not a discount for courteous people. What this is is collection of personal data for advertising and data collection (to be resold) and a good way to advertise to people's friends.

And 350 a year? I'll believe it when I see it.

I can see nothing to that effect in the linked article. Are you hypothesising or is there something I missed?

I'm not saying it's not plausible but the T+Cs should clarify one way or the other.

Just hypothesizing.
