Best switch I made!

5
Finding bymiles on a comparison site I thought "this is too good to be true". My tracker box arrived and it really was as simple to connect as the confirmation email said. The app has been great and even helped me find my car when I'd forgotten where I left it! I love that it tracks your mileage and tells you distance and cost of each journey! The referral scheme is so good aswell! Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Have recommended this insurance to everyone.

If you don't want an expensive insurance and only drive local this 8nsurance is the best one to go with. I've recommended miles to friends and family. Just wished you did motorbike insurance too. Been with you for third year now. Not looking to change anytime soon. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Been with bymiles the past 3 or 4 years.

Best value by far

Did several quotes on comparison sites, By Miles came out cheapest by miles. Even when I put it an extra 6,000 miles above what I estimated I would do, it was still the cheapest. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Drive as you Go

You have all heard of PAYG, this is the driving equivalent (DAYG), only pay for the miles that you drive. Furthermore, the 150 miles capped discount is also a welcomed. Well done By Miles for coming up with this innovative idea for lower mileage drivers. 5* all the way from me. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022
