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

Just the best.

5
Only had insurance with by/miles for 3 years but it has been a revelation. Able to cost long journey and decide whether to drive or not. Also partially paying monthly does help. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Best ever insurance company

5
Since I started drinking in UK , This was the best insurance company ever I had. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Novel idea but...

3
I like the low upfront costs and low monthly fixed payment, but in my experience this format only works for people who use the car least and limit trips locally. If you start making longer trips, over the course of the year this type of insurance becomes very expensive. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Best car insurance

5
Other companies charge you for driving your car and having your car parked ...this one doesn't .. you only pay for the mileage..... I've saved so much money over the years!!! Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Terrific Value, Great App, Great Service

5
I only drive around 1,000 miles a year. By Miles gives me a great product at a cost way below what I can and have bought previously. I get new quotes from the market before every renewal but By Miles is always lower cost but with similar features. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Trustworthy

5
The phone conversation was pleasant and they were patient and understanding. I ask all the questions and they were patient to explain everything to me till I understood . And there was no pressure. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Brilliant so far

5
By Miles have been absolutely brilliant so far, very reasonably priced and I only pay for how much I drive Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Miles better

5
No problem getting in touch with them when I had a problem, they were very helpful. Also it's good to link insurance to car usage as I'm not doing nearly as many miles as I used to do. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

A great idea for insurance - Wish we'd have joined sooner! Reviewed on: 10th August 2022
