Y miles is by far the best

I find this type of policy very useful for be because I am a low mileage driver. Paying a fixed charge and then for the miles I do gives me great savings. It is a very good model. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

An Honest and Fair Way to be Insured

5
I have been infuriated when using insurance providers in the past for their dishonest approach, reluctance to payout on claims and reluctance to lower premiums during renewal. Fortunately, I have not had to claim with ByMiles but I have been thoroughly impressed with their approach to renewing and rewarding customers and fair and generous approach to the cap on miles per day. I prefer this style of service where I can control my expenditure and feel like I pay what I owe, rather than paying an arbitrary figure based on hidden metrics. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Terrific money saver!

5
Although I love driving, I hate being ripped off by the over advertised insurance companies. By Miles only charges me for the miles that I drive. Terrific value! Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Already recommended it to at least a dozen people

5
During lock down I had a bit of time to not just accept the annual increase my policy provider snuck in every year at the last possible moment before my policy renewed and I had time to shop for others for a change. As I hadn’t used my car hardly at all I was considering usage based but mainly wanted to get a quote to use to haggle with my current provided. The quoting hand price was so good that I bought it there and then leaving my old provider of 10 years! It saved me over £700 in the first year compared to my old policy and come renewal I was actually rewarded By Miles and my premium dropped slightly! I cannot recommend enough.
