Easy and quick

Easy to set up and easy to track costs on a daily basis. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Perfect Service, Use of Technology & Customer Support

5
Having been with By Miles for some time now I really can't give the company enough praise. The technology is simple to install both in-car and using the phone app. Whenever I had a question, customer support were helpful and polite, answering exactly the question being asked. By Miles really does offer an innovative solution especially for people who don't necessarily use their car on a day-to-day basis, made even more simply by the style and content of the companies communications. Everything has worked exactly as intended and I'm overall thoroughly impressed, highly recommended indeed. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Simply brilliant

Thanks to pay per mile I'm on track to save £400 and I couldn't be happier! Not to mention the app has excellent features and encourages to budget more wisely. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Finally, a policy that reflects my car usage!

I used to work in a job where I would be commuting between bristol and Coventry regularly which meant I had high mileage- to make this more comfortable I bought an expensive BMW. Then when I started a new job in Bristol I was within walking distance of office, therefore my car is idle for most of the week and I have been contemplating getting rid of the car that I love because of the running cost . However, Bymiles means that I can now justify keeping my car because I pay so little on the insurance in comparison! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

ByMiles, ByFar the best!

5
I first came across ByMiles last year whilst I was shopping for my car insurance. It was the most easiest and smoothest process to get insured, there was no hassle and with everything being online based it suits me as I have much more control and involvement with tracking how many miles I have driven and how much each journey costs. For the first time ever, I have not shopped around and have let my car insurance automatically renew with ByMiles! For the first time I’ve not had to stress or worry at this time of the year to look for a cheaper quote as their quote was by far cheaper than all the other providers who emailed me. So glad I came across this provider. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

It does what it says on the tin

I chose ByMiles because of the market-leading, initial low policy price. The tracker and monthly mileage payments, together with the app, have all worked very smoothly. I can only give 4/5 stars as I haven’t yet had to contact their customer service team. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Great and fair service. Good value for money

5
ByMile is the only new challenger product within this space! It is a novel idea one that rewards people based on their miles ( which is the fair way to do). Further their app is best in class and they have the best customer service team. Great product and throughly recommend Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Finally!

Finally a decent, modern and fair insurance company. I only pay for what mile I do and I'm saving so much money. This is the insurance of the future, I hope the big companies are worried! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020
