Great service, cheap insurance

Cheapest insurance about, nice and easy app, everything is made simple and stress free Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Changing to By Miles

5
I'd been with my insurance provider for 12 years. Every year it went up abit, but I stayed. A work colleague told me about By Miles. I got a quote and my car insurance halved. The whole process has been very straightforward and I'm happy to be saving over £300 per year on my car insurance. I recommend them to everyone now. Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

First time with a black box

5
So this isn't your usual black box. It's even better as you only get charged for where you drive. I'm glad to know if there were to be an accidental or anything my whereabouts are known to the police. This was actually the cheapest quote that came up whit all search engines so I took a gamble and went for it and so glad I did. I'll be renewing next year, to do alot of driving often going from Wales to Scotland which is usually 400 miles a day. The company only charged me for 150 a day. This is their maximum charge. That I did not know so it says I'm on track for a refund. Couldn't be happier. Everything has gone smooth so far from start to now. Thanks by miles Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Great support

The data connector arrived within 3 days of taking insurance. It took me 2 days to find where to fix as there was already one fitted from previous owner but great support enabled me to plug in Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Great insurance!

Super easy to set up, great app and the best part is you only pay for the miles you drive - perfect in all possible ways! Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Excellent value for money

Understand customer concerns, especially with the car insurance price hikes Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Great service great price

Seems like such an obvious solution given we don’t do loads of mileage but we haven’t seen this option before. Easy to arrange and get started. Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Seems like a good idea.

I haven't claimed or had any dealing with the company and hopefully won't. The device was sent out quickly and I get a message after every journey to say how much I am to pay, which is totaled at the end of the month. I will definitely save some money by not being charged for miles I do not drive. Reviewed on: 18th August 2022

Really pleased
