Excellent value for money

5
Been using this for last few years and it has really helped me save money! Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

I love them!

5
For me, this is the best insurance ever. Way cheaper than if I had to purchase "normal" insurance. Even on the months I have driven loads, like when I went on holiday, it has still never come close to what I would have paid with standard insurance. Also, it's so easy to speak to someone, you can just Online chat with them and they usually answer immediately. If there is a wait, its never long, and you can leave the app and you'll get a notification when they've replied, so can carry on with your day. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Best Miles I have taken

5
When I insured my car with By Miles I was apprehensive to how it worked . After receiving my first statement I was amazed how cheap it was . How my statement showed all my journeys how many miles I had drove and the cost of each journey . I can budget so easily to what each cost will be . I have retired from work so doing my insurance this way is the best thing I have done and I have recommended By Miles to my friends . Best miles I have taken Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Really great company hassle free

There are a very good company any time I've had an issue somebody's got back to me straight away and dealt with it Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Great car insurance, especially if you dont drive that much

4
Going with By Miles has saved me money as its worked out as the cheapest option, specifically if you dont drive a lot of miles. I still drive everyday and still has been the cheapest option. Great so far, would recommend! Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Ethical Car Insurance

5
Used ByMiles for two years and I doubt I'll use anyone else ever again. A car insurance company that doesn't feel like it's sole purpose is to rob you. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Well worth the move if you don't drive that much.

5
The move to By Miles three years ago made he think hard about the miles I drive, and since driving to work came to an end I felt I would pay too much for conventional insurance. Though the dongle sticks out in the CPU port in the car, it doesn't matter. Excellent service from the By Miles team and *still* an excellent insurance offer compared to other insurers if you don't drive long distances too often. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Perfect money saver following pandemic

5
Working from home I really see the benefit paying ‘by miles’ made insurance much more affordable and would recommend to anyone working remotely Reviewed on: 9th August 2022
