Best year of insurance, worst renewal

2
By Miles have an excellent product that works well. They also have excellent customer service. They say they are different to traditional insurance which is correct until that is I got my renewal quote - my excess went up 160% even though I drove less than 4000 miles over the year. So not so different an insurer really. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Fantastic service

Best Insurance Company EVER!

5
This company has been FAB! It was recommended by the Martin Lewis website which gave me reassurance. The initial payment was at least £200 cheaper than the nearest rival, including the company I had been using the previous year !!! I LOVE the monthly statements & the app which shows what I have used and how much I owe. As I am a "light" driver this has never been more than £10 a month! The company also took the trouble to send reassuring messages during Covid. What can I say? I have been driving for 30 years and this has been easily the BEST company to have insurance with EVER! Give them the accolades they deserve xxx Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

New approach that is cost effective

5
Over the past 3 years I have had no accidents and every insurance renewal I have seen no reductions to my insurance costs this is frustrating to say the least the amazing thing about by Miles is that based on my current annual mileage I will half my car insurance costs. And even if I went above 10,000 miles a year by miles would still be £300 cheaper a year than other insurance quotes I have had it's safe to say I am really impressed Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Brilliant Insurance

5
This is my second year with By Miles and can't fault them at all. Last year I had a smashed windscreen and they got it sorted straight away. This year, when it came to my renewal, my premium and cost per mile actually went DOWN! I can't say enough how great this policy is and how I always recommend to friends and family - especially those living in London where the number of miles you drive really does factor into the policy! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Amazing value

5
Complete game changer for the car insurance market. This year I will save £200 at least from last years premium. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Easy to use, friendly team, simple and straightforward

Definitely the best car insurance provider I have ever used. The customer service team is easily accessible and it is always straightforward getting in touch. Nothing is convoluted or complex when liaising with the team, so I am would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020
