Review of the By Miles, Car insurance:

Easy and affordable

Fantastic team, wonderful customer service. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Probably the best option currently on the market for low-mileage drivers

5
Unless you have many years of no claims and live in a low risk area, you're unlikely to find a cheaper option for the weekend driver. Website and app are a breeze to use, and installation is simple with only a small OBD-II dongle required. If you're a regular commuter or you already get very low premiums, By Miles probably isn't for you. But for their customer base of low mileage drivers who are used to paying £400-600 p.a. for regular insurance, it does a very good job with providing them something affordable and not wasting money on a car they don't drive very much.

By miles has been a God send to me, i have saved pounds on my car insurance since i signed up with them , they are fantastic with advice and during the pandemic they contacted me to let me know my car battery was running low there for giving me the opportunity to charge it without having to buy a new one , would i go anywhere else for my car insurance ? not a chance it is by miles all the way and everyday .

The Best Insurance Ever

5
I always had an issue with the idea of insurance as usually you are overcharged and there could be better types of assessments to define the prices. Nonetheless I think ByMiles is the most fair and consumer friendly insurance company on the market so far. You are charged for the miles your use so they consider your individuality as well as offering a great platform to keep updated and all services you need. I think more insurance companies should follow this example and look at customers’ individuality. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020
