Best ever insurance

I'm very happy with my insurance Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Best Company by far for Cheaper motoring

Why have all the big insurers not thought of this. By not doing so then BY Miles will be making a killing. I am going to bring my car insurance down by around £200 or even more, depending on how i use the car. During Lockdown i have been walking more to the shops to get my everyday shopping but about once per week i use the car and it costs me peanuts compared to getting a taxi home. Be part of the FUTURE.

Excellent service. By miles is transparent, and I have saved thousands of pounds in insurance costs versus other carriers that have high minimum mileage. I hope By Miles could selectively allow young adults under 25 who are working, have had strong academic performance to join the program to reduce underwriting risk while expanding to younger populations so i can sign up my kids.

Brilliant

I think that By Miles is the best insurance company i have ever used .i have been driving 50 yrs without making a claim with any insurance company only twice and both times it was not my fault . but i feel sure they would be there for me if i did need them . thank you for all your supportive e-mails and messages Thank you ANN HALL Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Inexpensive and sustainable

5
From the beginning I was pleased with By Miles. Firstly my insurance bill was halved then I got a location device so my car could be tracked if stolen. Into lock down I received a reminder that my car battery appeared to be losing charge so needed a top up. And I have the thought that I only pay for the miles I drive - an additional incentive to avoid greenhouse gas emissions. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Good Insurance

Can't fault this insurance. Under the lockdown my last three months have been between £1-50 and £2.10p a month. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Great and easy insurance

I was so stressed out trying to find an affordable insurance without eating into my pockets. I came across By miles and to my surprise an insurance that you pay for only the mileage you use. This suited my situation greatly as I do not always drive my car. I would definitely recommend, easy set up. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020
