A complete no-brainer if you use your car occasionally

By Miles has been brilliant for me. Whereas before, I was paying a set amount (over the odds) for using a car predominately at weekends to ensure my father is safe and well, I only pay for what I use. So, at renewal and getting quotes of around £100-200 (if paying monthly) with the usual insurance companies, my most expensive charge over the last 9 months has been £43.73 for driving 568 miles (and that was mainly to drive back collecting the car from the dealer after purchasing it!). It is on average about £25 for me a month for around 330 miles. During these uncertain times, it has additionally come into its own, saving even more due to lockdown. No hassle of expecting refunds or partial ones from insurance companies; if you didn't use your car, you don't pay ! You can see where you have gone back and forth on the app, tells you how many miles you have travelled and what the total charge will be. It really has completely changed the way I look at insuring my car now, for the better and it will do you too. Trust me... Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

THE BEST CAR INSURANCE COMPANY EVER!

5
By Miles is the perfect car insurance company to hit the car insurance industry and I really hope other insurers follow suit. Fantastic concept, I’ve been getting car insurance from other insurers for years which would put me out of pocket. With By miles I can have insurance and be charged fairly for driving on the road with an app to monitor my activity on my dashboard. I will definitely be a loyal customer to By Miles for many years to come and have recommended this insurance to many of my family and friends! They deserve not just one award but many. Thank you for being a fair insurer and making it easier for people like me to have a car that’s needed to do errands like taking a loved one to their hospital appointments. Thank you for being THE BEST CAR INSURANCE COMPANY! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Best Insurance ever!

Why bymiles? The real question is why anyone else?! Since I first joined in 2018 I have never looked back - from their easy application to their affordability tailored to my lifestyle; NO other insurance company compares. Bymiles for me offers an adaptive, unique simplistic and most importantly affordable service. I have found them supportive and efficient with any problems or concerns I have. As long as they keep delivering the way they are and even better I will remain a loyal and happy customer indefinitely! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020
