Pay only what you use

5
For a long time now I've resented paying for insurance on a low mileage car - for me the Pandemic brought this home forcibly. Like many people my car was sat on the drive for the best of 10 months yet there was no acknowledgement from my insurer when it came to the renewal. No a single penny, even though I asked. I was so incensed that I started searching for a better way, a company that only charges you for miles you drive. Enter ByMiles. Its a brilliant proposition, tailor made for these times. You just pay for the miles you drive. My insurance premium has fallen 70%. Brilliant, thanks ByMiles Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Amazing concept! Amazing service!

This policy has saved me so much money and has also changed my outlook to how I use my car. Less driving miles, more walking miles, but still have that A1 protection when I need to drive. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Outstanding

By Miles has a great customer service and the best thing about it is the cost Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Keeping it simple

5
I have been with ByMiles for 2 years now and never had any issues. I get exactly what I pay for and know what I'm paying each month. So I have flexibility in my finances using this kind of insurance. Only pay for what u use. It's great for city living as I commute back and forth so works perfectly for my use cases. I would recommend to anyone who likes to drive local and doesn't want to pay over and above what they need to. ByMiles keeps car insurance simple and straight forward. And you know where you are at using the app too with live data at the ready and an agent not too fat away either. All in all its a great all round service. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Best Pay As You Go

I am very pleased with this Insurance. I even was able to travel to Europe & saved lot as I reached the limit of £12.50 per day & got lot of miles free. I was even able to show that I was not in country when somebody tried to put claim on me! Its awesome to have such Insurance on car as they track the miles & not how I drive! Keep Using ByMiles every Mile Reviewed on: 4th August 2021
