Very convenient and affordable

5
I was really shocked that I was actually paying too much for my insurance as i only use my car for travelling to and from work. When i switched to by miles my monthly has dropped by 75% as I'm only paying for what I use on my miles. And its fully comprehensive cover and everything is covered. I've recommended to friends and family. Thank you by miles Happy driving Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

low Mileage drivers dream come true

5
Our second car is only used for a couple of thousand miles a year. By Miles is the answer all low mileage drivers have been waiting for as it combines a great price with fantastic customer service. To add icing to the cake, for every referral who joins we both get £50 of Miles and when you thought things couldn’t get better they let you use your NCB on another car should you need to. Can not recommend this insurer highly enough - no other insurance company comes close for low mileage drivers. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Good service, good price. What else could you want?

Absolute game changer

5
When it came to the usual time of looking to renew my car insurance, I was expecting much of the same crazy amounts coming up. Then I saw bymiles. How they work is so much better! You only pay insurance for the miles you do! This is the first time I've seen something like this and I am so glad I chose them. It was so easy to set up, the app is user friendly and you can clearly see how much you are going to pay as it tells you an overall and price per journey. It even has a safety feature where it tracks your car which I like. I couldn't be more happier with bymiles. I have already told everyone I know to use bymiles! Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Disruptive Technology at it's best

5
This is how things should be - a new model - nicely presented, well executed and improving choice and value for the consumer. Excellent app, hardware that 'just works' and value for money. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Fantastic for those who do low miles

5
Having not been insured for a couple of years I was getting huge insurance quotes, compounded by the fact I would only be using my car for less than 5000 miles per year. By Miles should save me £300 over “normal” insurance. It was really easy to sign up and the black box simple to fit. I would definitely recommend ByMiles to others! Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

thousands of pounds wasted with OTHER insurers (!!!)

5
I am a low mileage driver of an electric car. Previously my policy has cost me HEAPS of money, until I found BY MILES which takes into account drivers who clock up low mileage. The initial premium is affordable and each journey I make costs me mere pennies. It is by far the best way for low mileage drivers. About time other insurers took note. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

This is what I've been looking for, a policy that takes mileage into consideration. The set up is so simple and it has saved me a lot of money. Reviewed on: 1st August 2019
