First class product and customer service

Notified after every journey of your start and end times and how much it has cost. On line chat and emails attended to with speed and efficiency ... great product for a low mileage user like me Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Clever bit of tech

5
Since being recommended By Miles car insurance, I have been very impressed with the ease of set up, the quality of the app itself (I particularly like the fact you are notified of every journey and how much it has cost) and the customer service. I have since gone on to recommend it to friends and family! Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Great insurance provider

5
So happy I discovered By Miles as it's the perfect insurance provider for me as a motorist. I have a car that I don't use that often as I commute to work by train. So to only need to pay for the miles I actually drive is amazing. Not having a large direct debit come out of my account each month for a car I've barely driven has been amazing. I also enjoy using the app and getting miles and cost updates. Highly recommend if you have a car you don't use everyday. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

How car insurance should be!

5
I was facing a ridiculously high premium for my renewal and stumbled upon ByMiles just by chance. I was very frustrated at the thought of having to pay so much for the such little mileage I do! Quick Google search, I saw others very happy with the service and after seeing my quote I didn't hesitate to sign up. My first payment to ByMiles was more than half the price of my monthly premium last year! The app is brilliant and the "find my car" feature is very handy. They're customer service is so quick and helpful too. If you want FAIR and professional car insurance, you can't go wrong with ByMiles. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Way better than I thought ...

5
I have low mileage annually and all quotes from comparison sites were way too much. A friend suggested I try By Miles ... I strongly feel they should be the benchmark for all car insurance providers i.e. free GPS tracker. Other providers shouldn't lag behind. Highly recommended, no second thoughts.

Good value and excellent customer service so far!

5
I've just started using this insurance in May 2019. They are good value, very responsive and quick to respond to questions. I do not know how they deal with claims as I've never had any, but their team gave me a very positive impression so far! Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Insured my car in advance of my rental date and then acquired a private plate the change over was quick and easy and at no charge. You get the app to tell you what your going to pay upfront each month don’t use your car you don’t pay great idea Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

I was so excited to finally find an insurance company that works for me. I've saved around £1000 this year, compared with my renewal from the last company, no joke... just amazing and hassle free, just plug in and go. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019
