Helpful UK based Customer Service & Low Cost Insurance

5
Each yr I would trawl comparison websites for competitively priced car insurance. I ignore the ones that don't have a UK based customer service team, and ones I've had bad experiences with (plus their sister companies). I was with AXA for a number of yrs, although I had a great experience with AXA they couldn't reduce down their pricing any further which was still £35 more than By Miles. I do less than 1000 miles and I felt I was paying extra with AXA's lowest option of 4000 miles. The welcome pack with By Miles was clear + concise, and when I asked questions, regarding the Tracker unit, via their Chat they were understood + answered concisely. I have just received my 2nd yr renewal letter + even though the p/mile has gone up, overall it'll be £10 more than last year. I will renew again as I like the concept, especially the daily price cap, + the service received to date. Reviewed on: 17th August 2022

Perfect insurance for a new normal

5
I am now in my second year with bymiles and they have been fantastic. When I joined after a bad year with my last insurance place and having issues with my no claim Bonus certificate they were very helpful getting the issue sorted and my rate lowered. With me now now doing less miles due to working from home it is great to see the amount of money I am saving and I have recommended them to everyone I know! Look forward to staying with them as long as possible! Reviewed on: 17th August 2022
