By Miles is a car insurer that\u2019s challenging the traditional model \u2013 it offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/car-insurance\/pay-as-you-go-car-insurance\">pay-as-you-go (PAYG) insurance<\/a>, so instead of a flat rate, you pay based on how much you drive. If you drive less than 6,000 miles a year (around 110 a week), it\u2019s probably worthwhile getting a quote from a PAYG insurer like By Miles.<\/p><h3 id=\"who_is_by_miles\">Who is By Miles?<\/h3><p>By Miles is a British insurance company that offers pay-as-you-go car insurance aimed at those who don\u2019t drive regularly. It was founded in 2016 and acquired by Direct Line in 2023.<\/p><h3>Who underwrites By Miles car insurance?<\/h3><p>By Miles pay-as-you-go insurance policies are underwritten by a panel of experienced insurers, including UK Insurance Ltd and Covea.<\/p><p>By Miles is also authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.<\/p><h3 id=\"what_s_covered_under_my_policy\">What\u2019s covered under my policy?<\/h3><table class=\"luna-table luna-table--responsiveList\"><thead class=\"luna-table__header\"><tr><th scope=\"col\">Cover benefits<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Comprehensive<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody class=\"luna-table__body\"><tr><td data-title=\"Heading 1\">Liability to other people<\/td><td data-title=\"Heading 2\">\u2713<\/td><\/tr><tr><td data-title=\"Heading 1\">Fire and theft<\/td><td data-title=\"Heading 2\">\u2713<\/td><\/tr><tr><td data-title=\"Heading 1\">Accidental damage<\/td><td data-title=\"Heading 2\">\u2713<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p>By Miles only offers comprehensive insurance, so there\u2019s no option to get basic third party or third party, fire and theft cover.<\/p><h4>Optional extras<\/h4><p>You can choose to add <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/car-insurance\/legal-expenses-insurance\">legal expenses cover<\/a> and breakdown cover to your policy, but also get no-claims discount protection included.<\/p><h3 id=\"what_are_by_miles_cover_options\">What are By Miles\u2019 different policies?<\/h3><p>Unlike other providers, By Miles only offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/car-insurance\/comprehensive-car-insurance\">comprehensive car insurance<\/a> and does not offer policies for third party only (TPO) or third party, fire and theft (TPFT). According to By Miles, this is because third party only cover can actually increase the cost of insurance, but it also means drivers may be able to find cheaper basic insurance elsewhere.<\/p><h3 id=\"how_does_by_miles_pay_as_you_go_insurance_work\">How does By Miles pay-as-you-go insurance work?<\/h3><p>By Miles car insurance is a comprehensive pay-per-mile policy, which means your insurance premiums are calculated based on the total number of miles you drive during the insurance period. You\u2019ll still need to pay a fixed annual premium, which covers you against any theft or accidental damage, but this will likely be lower than a regular comprehensive insurance premium.<\/p><p>After you\u2019ve bought your policy, By Miles will send you a telematics box, known as a Miles Tracker, which you\u2019ll need to attach to your car. This device measures the number of miles you drive, which can be tracked online or via the By Miles app. You\u2019ll then pay a premium based on how far you drive.<\/p><p>Unlike other types of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/car-insurance\/young-drivers\/black-box-car-insurance\">black box insurance<\/a>, By Miles does not track your overall driving performance and your premiums will not be determined by how well you drive.<\/p><p>If your Miles Tracker is unplugged, you\u2019ll automatically be charged at a rate of 150 miles per day, regardless of how much you actually drive that day. Your policy may also be cancelled if you leave the Miles Tracker unplugged for 14 days.<\/p><h3 id=\"how_do_i_make_a_claim\">How do I make a claim?<\/h3><p>In order to make a claim, you\u2019ll need to call the By Miles claims line on 0330 088 3838, which is open 24 hours a day, all year round.<\/p><p>You\u2019ll need to provide details of the incident, including registration number and contact details of the other party, any witnesses or injuries, as well as photos of the incident if possible.<\/p><h3>What is my excess?<\/h3><p>When you make a claim, you have to pay an amount of money towards it \u2013 that is called an excess.<\/p><p>The exact amount varies according to a few personal factors, like the type of car that\u2019s covered and the age of both the car and the driver.<\/p><p>Taking out protected or guaranteed no-claims bonus protection will also affect your excess.<\/p><p>All the details about your excess terms can be found in your policy schedule.<\/p><h3>By Miles customer reviews<\/h3><p>As of May 2024, reviews of By Miles on the platform Trustpilot \u2013 totalling almost 10,000 \u2013 are overwhelmingly positive, saying it\u2019s \u201csmooth\u201d, \u201csimple\u201d and \u201cexcellent value for money\u201d. The overall score is an \u201cExcellent\u201d 4.3 out of 5. <\/p><h3>How to cancel By Miles car insurance<\/h3><p>You can cancel using the live chat feature in the app or on the website. There\u2019s a \u00a350 cancellation fee.<\/p><h3>Frequently asked questions<\/h3><ul class=\"luna-accordionGroup accordionGroup\"><li class=\"luna-accordion\" data-accordion=\"accordion\">\n  <div class=\"luna-accordion__summary\">\n    <h4 class=\"luna-accordion__heading\">\n      <button class=\"luna-accordion__action collapsed\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion0000000000\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#accordion0000000000\">\n        <span class=\"luna-accordion__title\">Can I get insurance that starts immediately?<\/span>\n        <svg class=\"luna-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n          <use xlink:href=\"#chevron-down\" data-accordion-icon=\"show\"><\/use>\n          <use xlink:href=\"#chevron-up\" data-accordion-icon=\"hide\" class=\"is-hidden\"><\/use>\n        <\/svg>\n      <\/button>\n    <\/h4>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"luna-accordion__details collapse\" aria-hidden=\"true\" id=\"accordion0000000000\" data-accordion=\"details\">\n    <div class=\"accordionContent\"><p>Yes.
