Really cheap for comprehensive cover

I don't drive many miles so its ideal for me, also you get a free OBD that can check your car health and doubles as a tracker. Great value. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

It is so much fairer on low mileage drivers, perfect for me, and I’ve saved so much. They are always so helpful and friendly on the chat too. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Great policy as don't do much driving

It's great as you only pay for what you use so if my car sits for weeks without moving then it won't cost me anything which is brilliant Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Amazing value!

I’ve been with By Miles for over a year now, and didn’t even consider changing when my renewal was due. It’s really great value, and so flexible. It’s saved me an absolute fortune, especially throughout lockdown. I keep pestering my family to join! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Superb service

I have been driving since the days when a driving licence came in the form of a little red booklet and so have had many insurance policies over the years and now finally have found one that offers me full comprehensive cover and only charges me for the distance I travel on the road. Too say I have saved money on my previous insurer would be an understatement. The customer service is excellent and when I had trouble fitting the tracking device the online chat soon arranged for an extension cable to enable me to fit the tracker. The service from Bymiles is so good that both my and my wifes car are insured and when I changed my car recently I insured with them without hesitation. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Excellent Customer Service

First time I've gone with By Miles over your 'traditional' insurance company. Initially had a teething issue whereby the tracker found me to be a couple of miles away BUT.. Contacted By Miles via their intuitive app on my phone and their representative was fantastic, resolving the issue immediately. I'm thrilled that I have made the jump to pay per mile insurance so far! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Brilliant

I feel this is great as some months, if you don't hardly drive then it will cost you less. You only pay for what you drive, I feel this is a good way to insure people at a reasonable price. I will continue to use By Miles as my car insurance dealer. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020
