Excellent offer

5
Pay just right with low initial cost Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Best product and service in years

5
Brilliant service up to signing on the dotted line and then afterwards. App is great, communication is best that I have had and the product suits my driving needs perfectly. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Miles better than the rest

5
ByMiles does what it says on the tin; charges only for the miles you actually do. This has saved me £100’s in unnecessary insurance payments, particularly as a relatively low mileage customer or when not on the road due to lockdown restrictions. Highly recommended Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Fair way of charging.

5
The only way to charge fairly for car insurance. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

The future of insurance

5
If you want to adopt PAYG this is the way forward. I walk, cycle and use public transport most of the time and need the car occasionally - By Miles lets me have comprehensive insurance for the car and pay a nominal per mile fee. Prefect for the utra low city dwelling car owners. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Innovative and efficient car insurance solution

5
Overall a very good experience with By Miles car insurance. Innovative solution and good customer service. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Simple and easy

5
No hassle, just kept things simple and easy. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Simply the best!

5
An excellent product, I’m so glad I switched. There are no hefty up front fees, I more than halved my insurance costs. I like being able to pay for the actual driving I do. Unless you are a really heavy car user, By Miles makes economy sense. You won’t be sorry you switched! Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Easy to use and competitive provider!

5
Bymiles track your every mile which means if you're not using your car you're not paying for a service you're not using. This has been excellent during the covid crisis when I havent been using my car! Unlike others who have paid their insurance in full but havent been using their car. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Amazing car Insurance company

5
I was wary at first as I had never heard of by miles and it’s the first time I’ve heard of a pay by miles insurance. But I went ahead and I am amazed at how easy everything was, also when I had an accident last year they were brilliant. Handled fast and efficient. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020
