Seems great so far

Great price, quick and friendly service, haven't been with them log but no issues so far! Reviewed on: 10th September 2020

Rewarding, fair and great service

5
The by miles system of charging by the mile has been great for me, it's always tough to have to estimate accurately for the year and frustrating when other companies charge you more in the following year if you are slightly above rather than slightly below your estimate. By miles gives you control over this and it has encouraged me to drive less which helps the planet. They have rewarded my loyalty going in to my second year with a lower by mile rate and their service through the app and on the phone has been excellent. Reviewed on: 10th September 2020

It just makes sense

5
If you use your car a lot and are on the road more, it makes sense that you pay more insurance as you're statistically more likely to be involved in an accident or incident. The experience of COVID-19 made it even more apparent. Having the basic cover for a car that was been parked on my drive for the majority of time for 4 months was all that was required.

The fairest way to pay.

As an OAP on a limited budget who still likes to drive small miles a month, this is a life saver. So pleased I changed to By miles. Reviewed on: 10th September 2020

Value for money.

I am mother of 3 kids. Day to day i am no driving much. Before my husband fund this, we used to pay unnecessary money for car insurance. But with this we pay drive as you go. Love it. Reviewed on: 10th September 2020

Everything from the get go has been hassle and stress free. The process of getting a quote, accepting, paying and even installation of the tracking box have been easy. The app is great, you can see exactly where you're at each month for the costs. My favourite car insurance company yet. Reviewed on: 10th September 2020
