Easy sign up, best prices.

5
I came across By Miles fortunately after receiving a 50% increase on my car insurance with may current provider. Signing up with By Miles was speedy and easy. The tracker arrived within 2 days and was easily fixed into my car. I'm now enjoying the best value mileage and insurance. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Smooth service, great value, and brilliant customer experience

By Miles have nailed it. I was initially a little sceptical about moving over to a pay-as-you-go service, as I was worried it would encourage me to drive less with the overarching thought of being charged every time I drive my car... but it has been a total game-changer! I've saved so much cash as a result of switching to By Miles (especially during COVID, where lockdown has drastically reduced my driving habits). Their service is second-to-none — I received the tracker, installed it in my car and was setup with their phone app within a week. I've also really enjoyed seeing my monthly breakdown of how much I've driven, average speed, etc. I've been a customer for almost a year now and I'll definitely be renewing when the time comes. Highly recommended! Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Perfect for low mileage drivers

5
Patient and knowledgeable customer support, clear pricing, and the gadget you add to your car just does it's job and doesn't get in the way. Probably the cheapest and best insurance I could have found. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Very helpful insurance company who seem different to others in a good way

5
Absolutely delighted with by miles, my insurance policy is much cheaper than it would have been with other insurance companies and their customer service is excellent and the staff are very helpful. I very much like the fact I can contact them through a online chat messaging service and get help pretty much instantly. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Fantastic company

Since finding By Miles I’ve saved hundreds on my car insurance, I mostly drive my wife’s mobility vehicle and thought I’d do about 5,000 a year I don’t think I did 1,000 but the saving from doing such low mileage is amazing I’ve been telling all my friends & family it’s absolutely brilliant!

Great for low mileage.

Cheapest quote on comparison site, was a little weary as seemed too good to be true, but so far everything seems to be great. I work term time so my mileage is low, but due an accident a couple of years ago my insurance quotes have been pricey the last couple of years. So far with bymiles my monthly payment is 1/2 of what it was before. The capped mileage is brilliant meaning I can travel to family in Scotland and not worry about a huge price jump, which also gives me peace of mind. Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Value for money

For me personally who spends half of the year working abroad and not uses my car a lot, by miles is perfect for me. It worked out far cheaper than a lot of their competitors for me Reviewed on: 29th July 2020
