Review of the By Miles, Car insurance:

Easy and affordable

I've been with them for a few years and have saved myself ££££s Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Highly recommended

5
I have been with By Miles since March this year. Excellent value, plus so much more provided. For each month you can see how many days to go, how many journeys made, current/updated monthly balance, how many miles driven, each journeys details, where your car is parked, and loads more.

Great so far!

I like the modern app and updates on cost with every trip. Great so far, good price compared to other companies and hopefully the rest of the experience matches the perceived value so far. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Best insurer EVER

I have always struggled to afford “normal” insurance rates, by miles have changed my life massively by saving me so much money! I’m able to do more with my children which I couldn’t afford before and I’m so thankful for a company like this! I will be sticking with them for many years to come! Thank you by miles !!

Cheapest insurance for low mileage

5
Have been with them for a few years, and so far very few companies have come close to match their annual cost of the car insurance and the level of cover. The first year I joined them I saved about £500, now it's only a modest £100, but with uncertainty of lockdowns and even less travel it probably is the best choice of them all. Comes with a handy tracker, so if you drove past a picturesque spot or a nice house you can always find it later by following your route on-line. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Cheapest for low mileage - no brainer!

5
As more of us are looking to minimise travel costs & emissions it makes more sense to pay insurance per mile. By Miles is simple to use & shows what you spend per trip, which is gratifying when it's only pennies. Makes sense for the insurer too. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Fantabulistic!

Had a great experience from the get go. Love the fact that I can track each journey which helps when claiming mileage expenses. Got my wife signed up and tell everybody I know about it. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022
