Simply the best of the best

I am so glad I stumbled across By Miles on a price comparison website. I’ve been with them since April, love the reward system they have in place, saved an absolute fortune since I joined By Miles. I pay as little as £20 per month for the miles I drive, this is accurately calculated by the miles tracker that’s plugged into my OBD2 port on my vehicle. Where as before I as paying over £100 a month for the same cover minus the excellent customer service By Miles always give their customers. I’ve been so impressed with the service I recommended a friend to join, he was really apprehensive joining but after doing his research it was a no brainier and he is now part of the family. Overall the By Miles product is really simple, after a one off fee to insure my car, I pay for what I drive not what the insurance dictates I may drive throughout the year. Were in 2019 it’s time to move on, I hope By Miles will remain competitive If this is the case. I don’t see myself moving elsewhere as long as the service remains the same (better is always good) and costs stay down (pence per mile.) Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

By far the best car insurance providers I have ever used

By Miles has been the best car insurance I have ever used since I have been driving. The customer service department are always pleasant and very helpful at all times. I would happily recommend By Miles to anyone wanting car insurance. Easy to use and cost effective. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Best thing I have done for insurance

Since I have got in touch and then with bymiles, it has changed my life. I dont drive much and still used to pay like someone driving 10k miles. Bymiles changed everything and not only saved me money but also kept my piece of mind and NCD protected. Really happy with the customer service and transparency. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

By miles is the best car insurance company if you do not use your car much. I saved over £600 joining by miles and have encouraged all my friends to join as well!! Best decision ever! Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Insurance at ease

Easy to set up, great customer service at hand, cheaper than what I would usually pay as I do not use my car as much as I use to. Would highly recommend to anyone. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Great system and save money

5
Excellent communication made it a pleasure to deal with By Miles. I have now used them for six months and saving money on not paying for miles not driven. When my other car is due for renewal it will be put on By Miles insurance as well. Using the tracker is easy and can even get a health check on my car from the plugged in dongle Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Outstanding is an understatement

I have been with multiple providers before joining bymiles. The strategy behind their insurance is genius. I love that my car insurance is tailored towards me. I believe bymiles provides a fair and honest service. They of the modern era where i need to contact them directly unless entirely necessary thanks to their handy app which shows me exactly what i will be paying for the month and other useful features like the location of my veichle and the distances i have travelled. Bymiles has been significantly cost effective for me and my family especially where we are a lower income family. This company has help restore my faith in insurance companies. They are always on hand to help very quickly and deal with their customers professionally and efficiently at all times on my experiences. I will definitely stick with them going forward and WILL be renewing as i believe there is no better method out there for car insurance especially for young drivers who are usually exploited in my opinion by other insurers.

By Miles Insurance is fantastic for me as I do under 4000 miles per year, you are charged by the mileage you do. I think they are unique
