Modern and flexible

enjoy the app and messenger chat feature. wouldn't of got without the £55 credit offer though as there's not many miles/month I could have done before I'd of been better off with standard insurance. Reviewed on: 13th September 2020

Great insurance if you're working from home

I've always been very keen on this pay-per-mile insurance since I was doing a low mileage every year, but with the lockdown and work-from-home conditions imposed this year I've been saving even more. It's a shame that we can't do the same with the car tax! Saves me hundred on insurance a year, and since the start of the lockdown I've been paying about £2 a month. Reviewed on: 13th September 2020

Great service and deal

Good experience overall. Communications need to be improved. Reviewed on: 13th September 2020

brilliant idea.

5
I did 1500 miles last year, nd my monthly bill comes to about £2.30. This is such a brilliant idea to pay for what you use. The BBC need to do this with the television licence. The saemenet comes through in email at the end of the month, and the money is taken there and then out of your account. THE BEST, for low mileage users, Reviewed on: 13th September 2020

Appreciate the insurance customer relation and the policies.

The service is second to none and the policy is transparent. It allowed you to plan ahead and reduce your overhead at the end of the month. Reviewed on: 13th September 2020

More money to save

Straight forward insurance., it shows me the mileage I used and the amount of cost you traveled straight away. Reviewed on: 13th September 2020

Great service at an amazing premium

5
This last 6 months have been extremely disruptive at best. One aspect that has benefited from this disruption had been our car insurance. Without realising it at the time, when we opted to go pay as you go, we stumbled upon a mega means of saving a significant amount of money due, simply, to the fact we weren't able to drive as often it as far and as a result these reductions also reduced the cost of owning our car - very much welcomed. The pricing model is perfect for those of us who rarely do significant distances on a daily, monthly or yearly basis. Having access to my policy and it's details within an app 24/7 has been great and I can't recommend them more. Reviewed on: 12th September 2020

Friendly, easy and value for money

Works on tracker system and support in setting this up for my Mum was excellent - friendly and down to earth telephone contact. Ideal for Mum who is older and drives just locally so extremely good value for money. Reviewed on: 12th September 2020
