Revolutionising Car Insurance

Democratic, fair and a totally fresh and relevant approach to the way we now use our vehicles. Brilliant concept and completely transparent and user friendly. The app is great too. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Affordable and staff always there for me

5
I'm with By Miles for 2 years now and I'm really happy. I get charged for how much I drive and with app is so easy to keep track of my miles and also to ask questions when needed. Staff is quick when answering my queries and so helpful and polite. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Brilliantly innovative insurance concept!

5
Had never heard of By Miles before and was intrigued. The quote was reasonable and I liked the idea of being in control (to an extent) of what I pay. There was an issue with the policy start date in my email and the customer service was impeccable! Thank you. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Best car insurance concept to date

4
I have not had to make a claim, however as far as cost, mileage calculation, real time information on the app, and collecting payments by DD so far, this is the best insurance policy I have had so far. I wish I can recommend to everyone. Hope no issues, if I ever have to claim Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Excellent

5
I have only been with Bymiles for a few months now, but I could honestly say the are best car insurance company that I’ve been recommended to as well as their customer service very polite Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

The perfect platform

5
By Miles is the perfect platform for anyone who does not do many miles. The one off fully insured option plus paying monthly for additional miles is perfect. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Best kept secret

5
By Miles has to be the insurance world’s best kept secret. I can’t imagine why anyone wouldn’t want to use it - not only are prices great (especially in a Covid-restricted world), but the quality of the app, customer service etc are excellent. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Very easy to use and cheapest on the market

5
The app is brilliant, very easy to use and you can see how much you’re charged for each journey. Cheapest insurance on the market. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Very satisfy

I'm very happy and I'm having peace of mind because I'm just paying by miles and when I'm not driving my car I'm paying anything Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Modern, flexible car insurance

5
ByMiles has been my motor insurance for about three years. I like the fact that they are "small enough to care". Enquiries are handled by their team in Oxfordshire, very friendly and efficient they are, too. Good value for money! I only pay in the region of £300 per year for a yearly mileage of about 3000 miles. I spend several months driving abroad every year, and By Miles has no problem with that. I shall stay with ByMiles for the foreseeable future. Clive J. Watford Reviewed on: 9th September 2020
