Review of the By Miles, Car insurance:

Easy and affordable

I've been with them for a few years and have saved myself ££££s Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

The bees knees,

Hi. I have a Thalidomide limb disability which means my insurance could be more with most insurers. .When I got a big old sportier model I thought my insurance would go through the roof. My nearest quote was £500 more. Now my basic insurance for a Merc is less than £150. How great is that. Michael Brear Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Has worked smoothly and is saving me money on my car insurance!

I’ve been a customer for 9 months, I’m happy with the saving I’m making compared to the renewal quote from my previous insurer, works well for the mileage I do. Customer service was good when it came to taking out my policy, since then everything has been self-service through the app which has worked well. The real test will come when it’s time to renew, or in the case an insurance claim arises, but so far so good. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

The best car insurance company out there by far.

The day i found By Mile was one of the best days of my life. I have been with them 3 years now and i wouldn't change insurers ever. Value for money, always get a friendly customer service agent and their prices are the best on the market hands down. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Cheap and cheerful

I was a bit skeptical at first but after being with these guys for a year now, I'm so happy with my choice! I have saved so much money with being a low mileage driver (roughly £400). Their app is great and gives you tons of information that other providers don't. I will be staying with them when my renewal comes and i can't recommend them enough. Good job By Miles!

Pay for what you drive, good for all drivers in all age groups Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

By miles reduced my insurance premium from over £800 to a number in the £200s! I do such low mileage that utilising the referrals means I don’t even pay a monthly by mile cost. Even factoring in the additional monthly cost of the policy it’s still way less than I would have previously paid. I couldn’t recommend them enough! Reviewed on: 11th August 2022
