Cheap

Use them for 2nd year now. It’s perfect if you don’t drive much and quite cheap. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Simple and fair

5
Pricing is on point and competitive. Good customer service when needed Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Revolutionary

5
If you work from home but still need a car for errands and occasional commuting to see clients, this is the perfect product for you. You pay a reasonable upfront free to cover your car whilst it's sat on your driveway, and then pay pence per mile travelled and is billed monthly. I've already saved so much money, compared with standard insurance providers. Definitely recommend this to anyone! My only criticism is that I would like to get a tesla but miles (and their underwriters) can't insure me yet due to age (I'm 28). Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

So helpful, such good value

5
We found this company to be the most fair when it comes to the cost of a policy, especially for older folk who no longer drive very far. They are so helpful and value their customers. I would thoroughly recommend them. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Wish I knew about By Miles before !

5
By miles has been great from the very start, I received excellent support when looking into quotes and once I had purchased the insurance, the team were there to help as I got up to speed with the app! The app is so simple to navigate and provides great visibility and transparency. I’ve recommended them to many friends who are unhappy with their traditional insurance providers and when they sign up I will receive bonus miles ! Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Best car insurer

5
By miles is the best car insurer you can find out there, you pay for the miles you drive. I was so lucky to find By Miles in March 2020 just days before the lock down and switched to them. Switching my car insurance then was the one of the best decision I have taken recently, it saved a lot money I wasn't driving much during the lock down. I could find myself with a monthly payment of less than £5 couldn't have been better. I would recommend you without any hesitation. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Excellent!!

5
Would 100% recommend ByMiles! I have saved so much money on insurance as I don’t drive a lot. The pay as you go is perfect for me! I have been using ByMiles for 2 years now and wouldn’t even bother looking at an another insurance company when my renewal comes up. The app is great for checking what your journeys cost and is very user friendly! Reviewed on: 4th August 2021
