Outstanding insurance company

By miles is a outstandingly good insurance company and I recommend to friends and family all the time great for people who don't want to pay over the odds for insurance we love you by miles Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Suits me but ---

I'm happy with what I have especially the 150 mile a day cap placed on me meaning I wasn't charged for the rest of my mileage wandering down to mid France; however when I tried to get a £100 for introducing the missus as she does minimal miles as well, I got a phone call a week later in reply, by which time she went elsewhere. What a pain. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Do the Maths.

I am paying around £4 a month for my usual chore on the top of £168 base price. I can afford to drive few thousand miles for summer holiday and still save more than £100 than my least quoted insurance. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Absolutely Brilliant

5
For someone like me (and most persons in London who park and ride the tube/bus), By Miles has saved me £100s in car insurance as I only pay when I drive, which is very rare. Gutted I hadn't discovered them sooner. Seamlessly, brilliant! Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Cheap Insurance

I have had no problems with by Miles. I drive and they track my mileage, so long as I don’t go over my estimated annual mileage, I don’t pay anymore. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

The best car insurance choice I have made in years

5
By Miles is perfect for me as I use my car on fairly irregular basis throughout the year, ie more in the winter than in the summer when I tend to cycle for short journeys .So the way it works is perfect for me . In addition the details in terms of cost down to each journey is great with the app providing a great user experience . So overall super satisfied including lower costs overall for me Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

I only pay for the miles I drive!

5
Perfect for me as I am a very low mileage user. Even checked on me when I broke my ankle and wasn't driving for several weeks! Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Absolutely amazing

5
Since we don’t use our car that often, paying by the mile makes more sense and has saved us a lot of money. The support is responsive and resolves any questions promptly. I would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 16th August 2022
