Best Car Insurance I have ever bought by miles!

5
Very good value and very fair car insurance at last! Excellent customer service. I had a problem fitting the tracker in my car. Within the day I received the part I needed to make it work and was reassured that I was still fully insured in the mean time. I hope this service continues for the life of my policy. If so, I will be renewing immediately without doing a search for a cheaper option, for the first time in 30 years! Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Practical, I like the idea ,you dont drive ,you dont pay

Smart and fair

I like the concept of paying per mile as I don't drive that much. By Miles have made this concept easy with very friendly and efficient app which I can also use to check my car's health. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Good insurance if you drive less than 20 miles a week.

As I'm working from home now I dont need to drive to work everyday so by miles is the perfect car insurance for me as I'm only paying for how much I drive, its saving me hundreds of pounds! Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

First time with By Miles. So be interesting to see how it all works. Cheapest quote I had. Been having afew hiccups with the device. Used the live chat and phone to ask for help. Customer service is impressive. All very helpful, polite and patient ( like to mention Frank). All credit to the company. With live chats/emails ....they respond extremely quick. Looking forward to when its all up and running properly. With experience so far...will definitely recommend friends and family. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

It is so helpful to have this insurance choice as a short-distance commuter! It saves me a big sum of unnecessary cost! Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Excellent, simple, modern service

I wanted an insurance product where I felt in control and wasn’t laboured with an extortionate annual payment. The ability to monitor the number of miles you drive every day, month and year is fantastic way to understand your driving. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Best car insurance for low mileage

By Miles is a great choice if you are only driving a few thousand miles a year. I have halved my previous premium based on my expected 1500 miles driving in the next 12 months. Easy to fit tracker and good mobile app which accurately records all trips. Impressed so far. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020
