Review of the By Miles, Car insurance:

Easy and affordable

I've been with them for a few years and have saved myself ££££s Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Perfect for people who don't drive that much

4
It's great to have an option with car insurance whereby the amount you're on the road impacts the amount you have to pay. For someone like myself, it's a great way to keep my insurance, and perhaps it encourages others to lower the amount they drive themselves Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Flexible and low cost insurance

5
By Miles has been a brilliant choice of car insurance, especially over the last year when car use was lower than normal. It has meant that I have paid less insurance than I normally would. The app is also fantastic, showing you exactly what miles you have done and exactly how much you have spent per journey, which allows you to manage your insurance spending accordingly. I would highly recommend By Miles and will definitely be renewing with them. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Very easy to use you know how much you owe at all times great piece of mind

My first experience with Bymiles

5
My husband has been using Bymiles for a year and has made great savings. I am very new but my initial experience has been perfect. Very straight forward, instructions easy to follow. So far can't fault this brilliant idea and new way of having car insurance Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Ideal for low mileage users

5
Ideal for low milage users and you can see what you spend almost immediately! Would highly recommend Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

A refreshing change

5
I thought I'd give this a try this year, paying by Miles rather than the traditional annual policy. I liked the daily cap proposition - great for those longer trips which I do occasionally. In the main I'm doing quite short journeys so think I can save a lot. So far so good, and the app is awesome, very easy to use and understand. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Really good customer service.exclent for the person who does less miles highly recommend

Suits me perfectly

5
Due to illness I’m unable to travel far or long so this type of policy suits me very well. My monthly payments are in line with how many miles I’ve down so my bills are in turn very low which I’m very happy about. And customer service is also very fast and effective as I’ve had to contact them to inform them When the cars been in for repair or MOT and it’s very fast. No waiting on the call it’s all available online which again suits me better. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021
