As I work in town centre, I only use my car on weekends. So paying by miles is much cheaper than other ways. Thanks for offering this amazing service! Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Epic car insurance!

Quality service right from the get go. Lovely staff over the phone who were so helpful in answering any questions. After being with them for almost 12 months. I could not be happier with the service and pricing. No issues at all. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Just how insurance should be!

5
Why should we pay for estimated miles. Bymiles and their approach in insurance should be compulsory across all insurance companies. Love it, brilliant and true insurance. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Much better than other forms of insurance

I love this approach to insuring. It's working out much cheaper for than than previous insurance. Although I don't do many miles. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Great concept and customer service

Really like the new concept of by miles, easy to set up and use and really makes you think about what mileage you are actually driving on a monthly basis. All very transparent, my only gripe is that you can’t add anyone on the policy unless they live with you or are a relative, I really needed some support after I broke a bone in my foot, I live in village on my own with my 10 year old son in Devon and they wouldn’t insure my expartner even for a day to drive my car (he had a van) which was very disappointing- I had to take out separate insurance.

Pay-as-You-go Car Insurance that Works!

5
Fantastic insurance concept, that makes keeping the car on the road affordable if one doesn't wish to drive too often or too much, but wishes to own a car in case it's ever needed in the future. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Good value for the Ltd mileage I do

First year with bymiles. Has been a good experience; easy to join, good value. Have used the app to easily locate where I’ve parked my car on several occasions. Tracker simple to install, literally just needs plugging in. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Great customer service very convenient and financially affordable Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

One of my best decisions!

I joined By Miles some years ago, they were excellent then, they still are! The opportunity to pay for your insurance as and when and if is a great idea. I feel that I’m getting value for money as I’m only paying for the times I drive as opposed to a high annual premium.. Plus I also know my car is insured whilst my card is parked at home. Plus other benefits such as tracking system included! Their Customer service has always been outstanding and friendly… Difficult to beat all round! Reviewed on: 11th August 2022
