By Miles Car insurance reviews (13081)

Great policy, great price, great people. Pay for what you use.

5
I moved over to ByMiles during the pandemic as my renewal come in at £600 but I was hardly using the car. ByMiles quoted me £200 including breakdown and I only paid for the miles I used. Saved myself hundreds. I've not needed to claim...Touch Wood! But when I have enquired about policy changes, they are quick to respond, always friendly and competent in their advice. I always recommend ByMiles to my friends and relatives. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

By Miles - great new way of pricing insurance

5
This new way of pricing insurance makes such perfect sense and is very fair to all road users. The less you drive the less chance you have to be in an accident - surprised it took a pandemic for someone to think of it! The Billing is all very clear and it's easy to see at any point in time what you are clocking up via the App. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Very simple and cost effective

All the explanations were simply worded when I signed up and all was always very clear. Very good value for money too! Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Peace of mind as needed

5
By Miles offer a completely self managed mechanism to manage my car insurance. Why pay insurance when the car is just sitting on my drive. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Saved me so much money

5
Now that I only pay per mile for insurance, my car expenses have gone down dramatically. I now pay less than half what my insurance was previously costing me. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Best Insurer for low mileage user

5
Fantastic service from all angles Customer Service on, backed by top provider, small fee, then you pay a few pence by the mile only. If you do less than 5000 miles don't look anywhere else. By Miles is the only way to go for low mileage users Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Perfect car insurance

Great product for varied car use. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Payment details

4
I am insured with By Miles because my payments are spread over 12 months which is convenient for me. After paying a small deposit I pay for the mileage I do at the end of the month. So the less you do the less you p. I would recommend anyone who does low mileage to get a quote. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Friendly, helpful, money-saving....

5
I no longer drive any great distance, so finding By Miles was wonderful. They were super helpful setting it all up originally and have always dealt with any queries in a friendly and competent manner. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Exactly what I needed

5
Great help during this financial crisis and lock down . Other than that helps keep track of mileage and people like me that rely on a car but don’t drive much . Also for company cars keeping track of movements Reviewed on: 9th August 2022
