Definitely recommend!

I didn’t even know this type of policy was available until I worked out how little mileage I actually do each year so it’s perfect for me as it keeps my costs down and I only pay for what I actually drive! Reviewed on: 17th August 2022

Best thing to happen to insurance, by miles.

5
It's just nonsensical to pay to insure your car while it isn't being used, especially if it's tucked away in a garage or on a driveway. Paying only for what you use feels novel but it's obvious, accurate and simple. It's a revelation and it's oddly made my car insurance fun. Yes, fun. Not without hiccups however - we had an issue on day 1 where we couldn't charge our EV while the by miles widget was plugged in - I sent them some DMs and they fixed it over-the-air. Genius! I now pay less for insurance per month than ever before, and know there is a tech savvy team ready to help out if anything goes wrong! Keep up the great work. Reviewed on: 17th August 2022

Fantastic provider

5
I’ve been raving about this provider since I took the insurance out - what a fantastic way to insure your car without the headache! Pay for when it’s parked and only for the miles you travel. Total control with a great app, which notifies of the mileage of each journey too! Reviewed on: 17th August 2022
