Innovative model that adjusts my cost with my insurer's risk!

5
Very good all round. Great price, and you feel it's a fair deal - the more I drive the higher risk and the more it should cost to insure. Gadget arrived quickly and easy to fit. Tiny monthly charges. Clear communications. Have recommended to F&F already! Reviewed on: 30th July 2020

Fair and friendly company that has saved me £1000's on my car insurance so far...!

5
I joined By Miles very soon after they first started up in 2018. Before this point I was paying at least £1000 for my car insurance every year and this just didn't seem to be going down despite years of no claims. I stumbled upon By Miles and at first was understandably worried that they were a brand new company however after speaking with an adviser I just couldn't fault the concept of only paying for the miles that I drive. I have been with By Miles now ever since and have changed address twice, had work done on my car meaning the tracker had to be removed and each time I had to speak to an adviser about these, the service was always highly efficient and friendly! I also recommended a friend and so was rewarded with £50 in free mileage (which lasted me months!). Also, the app is fantastic, it tells you where you car is currently, alerts you of any health warnings on your vehicle (which informed me that I needed a new battery during lock down) and it is an easy way to check your mileage charges and payments regularly. I truly cannot fault By Miles car insurance. I don't plan to use any other company now unless I suddenly have to start driving hundreds of miles a day. For a regular driver that wants easy and fair car insurance with an excellent customer service offering- By Miles is the way to go! Reviewed on: 30th July 2020
