No hassle, straight forward company

Great company who do their best for their customers. Only charge you for the mileage you do - not like other companies who certainly overcharged during the lockdowns. I have no problem recommending this company to anyone. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

My best insurance company in 21 years

These days when everything is so expensive, it has been a relief to save a little through By Mile as you are charged on your mileage, I have travelled from Rochdale to Birmingham many times throughout the year and all the school runs etc my insurance still worked out cheaper than anywhere else, customer service is also brilliant so I am very happy with By Miles and would definitely recommend Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Excellent value for money.

The basis on which the cost to the motorist is calculated cannot be more fair. Thus, with the possible exception of those who do a huge mileage, By Miles is a company that suits most motorists and I wholeheartedly recommend it to all. Also, the staff are very friendly and it is a pleasure to deal with them. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Fantastic value for money, hassle-free provider

By Miles has been the best car insurance provider I’ve used. They offer a cheaper solution for drivers who don’t use their car as often, which is perfect for me. Getting set up as a customer was quick and easy and customer service are always very helpful and informative. I’ve been with By Miles for the past 2 years and wouldn’t swap to another provider. They’re the only insurer who’s renewal quote (for their fixed annual cost) was cheaper than the previous year. By a whole £100 in fact! Their per-mile rate cost also decreased too which I wasn’t expecting despite the fact that I had didn’t make a claim. It’s always increased regardless. The By-Miles app is user-friendly and gives great visibility for mileage and spending each month. I’m due to renew in October and I’m relieved I don’t have to deal with the usual headache of renewing car insurance. Thanks By Miles! Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Worked out much cheaper

5
Being a busy mum i use my car mostly during term time. By miles gives me the flexibility of paying for my limited usage whilst having the everyday benefit of being insured at all times. It definitely works out to be cheaper but as a plus point I can speak to someone within minutes with only 2 options on the customer service line my queries are sorted quick time. I also have the benefit of the app with an update on the cost of each journey. This is my second year with them and hope to continue if they stay as competitive as they are already!

The car insurance the world needed

I have recommended By Miles to all my family and friends and so far I got £200 in credit which is amazing. Best car insurance I’ve had in ages. I intend to renew with them for the 3rd year now. Best customer service and email responses are quick. Reviewed on: 9th August 2022

Best insurance company around

I'm now in my second year with By Miles, and still just as happy as ever. The app is an outstanding tool to use with regular updates, especially the car medic which can help diagnose any potential repairs Reviewed on: 9th August 2022
