A way to escape unfair pricing

5
You pay a small fee for coverage whilst parked at home and then pay per mile driven which gives more choice to the driver. The way it should be. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

cheaper by the miles

5
well priced, well suited to my needs, I have a car in showroom condition, I take it out once a week to charge the battery and one holiday per year plus service and mot, in all less than a thousand miles a year so by miles offer me the cheapest car insurance available on the market, I know because I fully researched it on the internet not bad for a £78.000 Mercedes, I would fully endorse and recommend BY MILES.

Helpful.

When I returned to England after living in France for many years no one would insurance me so when I saw by miles I thought I would try them they were so helpful and helped me with their Insurance so being on my own I was very grateful for all their help.And if I have a problem I know that they are a phone call away. Thank you for looking after me. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Very good company to use, all very professional and will save me money not driving as much per year Only slight concern was when changing to an older slightly cheaper car my insurance went up Would use again though and reccomended Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Excellento!!

So this is simple, you do not drive your car, you do not pay anything! I am loving the fact that on months that I have not used my car much, I did not pay much. The app makes me track usage and miles, so its fair. I would highly recommend especially the elderly and/or anyone who does not use their car much to be wiser and go for ByMiles! Perhaps the best car insurance provider I have used so far!!! Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Simple, well thought out, responsive, good customer service, all I can expect from you, very well done Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Good value, good service!

I've found the experience of being a ByMiles customer very smooth and easy so far. I haven't had to claim yet but I love the fact that I pay for how much I drive. I find tge principle rather fair! I also like that every time I unplug my tracker, I receive a note. This is reassuring! I had to contact the customer service a couple times for the tracker and every time I got a response straightaway and it was made easy for me. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022
