Good value, great service

5
Fair charging model based on genuine miles travelled. Great customer service. Really easy company to do business with. First time in years I haven’t switched companies at renewal time. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Finally, an insurance company that plays fair

5
From the get go over considered that I had a working relationship with the company. They're really transparent. I can make choices each month how much I cost myself. I didn't need to ask for a gesture during lockdown, it's all locked into the concept. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

The most cost effective car insurance ever

5
I only travel around 4000 miles per on average so using By Miles & their ‘pence per mile’ system is perfect for me. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Gave by miles ago with my car insurance.which as I don't use a great deal..so being charged by miles really worked for me.and when I do use it it's very reasonable anyway..so the flexibility works for me.also like the app which shows every detail of what and were the car is.working as tracker almost .

The Car Insurance Youve Been Waiting For

5
This insurance policy is perfect for me. I’m on a modest income and mostly drive around for work With the occasional long trip - fetching and delivering things for clients. Not having to pay a hefty amount up front and being able to see how much I use my car and only pay for the miles I drive Is ideal. I recommended to my brother and he’s signed up too - plus I got bonus miles for him doing so - highly recommend!! Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

Excellent

5
A great plan for lower budgets, and students and realistic journey prices. Also if your car is stolen it can be tracked. Customer services are always very helpful too Reviewed on: 9th September 2020

THEY ARE CHEAPER BY MILES / MILES AHEAD

5
well i'm more into the service and the experience i have had with other insurances have been bad but so far they answer all my questions and if they couldn't they found out and called me back and i'm charged by the mile not the car and in my book that's a great thing. I have only been with them a short time and no problems but with another insurance i had in a short time i had trouble getting my windscreen fixed so i will judge by SERVICE received and BY MILES has got my custom .

Innovative car insurance

By Miles has introduced a new approach - the amount you pay reflects how much you drive. Brilliant, especially if you have low mileage. Reviewed on: 9th September 2020
