I am with by miles insurance since last 6 months and am very happy with the service. It’s app is simple and great interface, with tracking of all your journeys. Cost is calculated per journey and gets quickly updated in your account. You see everything on the app so it looks very transparent and intuitive. I have already recommended to my family and friends.

Insurance with Top Class Service

A rare thing these days! An insurance company with a heart. Friendly communication strikes the right note .. like a great waiter, always there, anticipates your requirements yet unobtrusive. Why would you change? Very happy I found them! Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Perfect for low-mileage drivers

Made a huge difference to my insurance premium over the year -- quartered it in fact. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Haven't made any claim yet

3
So I normally, like most educated drivers, judge an insurance company on their claims procedure and how well they settle any such claim. Thankfully, I have not had the displeasure of having to make a claim so I can only say this, "they aren't the cheapest, possibly not the best either, but I always know how much every drive has cost me".

Ideal insurance for second low usage vehicle, made easy with the plug in tracker. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Cheap insurance, its what everyone wants.

5
I have already recommended by miles to so many friends and family so they can also enjoy the benefits of saving money on their car insurance and not to forget I’d get £50 worth of free miles each time someone takes insurance through my referral link. The referral system is great because you’re already paying for next to nothing for insurance you get to get more money off!!! By Miles is By Far the best insurance I’ve had. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

Easy and honest

5
Very clear and simple terms and with the app it just stays that way throughout the policy. Far far cheaper than the nearest prices policy and suits my needs better than any policy I’ve looked at before. 100% recommended Reviewed on: 4th August 2021

It does what it says on the tin!

5
Having used traditional insurance for years it was great to finally find a company that charges per mile. Since lockdown my mileage took a tumble and yet I was still paying a lot while going nowhere. Thanks to By Miles I am much better off every month - and the app/billing is great. You always know how much and why you are being charged. Reviewed on: 4th August 2021
