Great customer service at considerable value

5
I have found that I can have a real time conversation on live chat with them 100% of the time. This resolves concerns and problems more quickly and there is no press option 1 then 4 then 3. Then start again; for those that know what I mean. Oh and did I mention the savings you can make opposed to other traditional insurances. With ByMiles you also have an app and a tracker, so you will be able to monitor journeys and keep track of your car always. If like me you’ll never loose your car haha.

value for money

First of all i think it is great value and you can see what it is costing on a daily basis which does help cash flow etc Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Sensible no nonsense insurance.

5
Low mileage user. Basic insurance and cost per mile over my annual 4000 miles equated to a saving of over £100 against any other insurer. Do not pay full premium at outset. App is excellent and realized that whilst not intrusive e. g. monitoring by driving it does record times and paths of journeys. This would be very useful if the vehicle was stolen i. e. You know exactly where it is either on the move or ststionary. Already mentioned you to several friends and family. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

So easy to set up .I would definitely recommend to friends and family

Ive only recently joined but upto now I'm satisfied Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Car insurance made simple

5
By far and away the cheapest quote for me. It really was a no brainer. I was so surprised and impressed by the 'pay as you drive' philosophy. It makes perfect sense for me as I do not drive that many miles. A great service provided all round. Definitely would recommend. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Fairer Pricing Insurance

5
As I am a low mileage driver in my own car this is an ideal product for me. I estimate savings of over £300 this year alone compared with your usual insurance company. And did I tell you the service is great also. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Huge savings

5
I have saved so much money by insuring with By Miles, and their customer service team are second to none! I cannot recommend this company highly enough. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Great Car Insurance

The more I don’t use my car the more I save. !!!!! Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

It's the fair way, when you leave your driveway

5
By Miles is a great way to insure your car. The old way, you work out roughly how many miles you might do and then add a couple of thousand for just in case. The By Miles way is a fair way, only paying for the mileage actually driven. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Excellent idea.

5
I find this a brilliant insurance idea as i do limited mileage. The app allows me to check how much my journeys are costing and to budget accordingly. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019
