Happy with how By Miles keeps me updated on miles travel and what is due to pay. Its the 1st time I have had pay by mile insurance installing the device in my Nissan Leaf was reasonably easy after looking up a youtube video on how to access the port. One little niggle it would be nice if the device were a little smaller so I could put the cover back on, on the other hand I can see the LED light that shows everything is working ok.

Modern insurance

The best for people who drive little. It was really easy to purchase and the communication was excellent from the beginning all way through. It's like they thought of everything. The application is amazing, works perfectly as well. The notification coming straight after journey. The history of journeys is fantastic. They don't pest with emails. Only one email update per month, witch is absolutely enough. To be fair the best car insurance I had so far. I don't won't it to end. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

As I show my 2 Australian Terriers travelling from the Scottish Borders at least once a month to to middle England did wonder if I had made the right choice. Definitely did and my payments even for longer journeys are still cheaper than my.previous insurance companies. Great idea! Reviewed on: 16th August 2022
