What California customers say
“Even with my clean driving record, other insurers have not been able to come close to the value I have with Metromile. I’m driving as much as I need to and still save hundreds of dollars a year with Metromile.”
“We live in San Francisco and only use the car on occasional weekends, so Metromile is perfect for us. We park on the street and get texts to tell us when there is street cleaning.”
“I don’t drive tons, but I do a few roundtrips from San Francisco to Tahoe here and there. I have saved myself around $300/year on auto insurance.”
“I have a car that is garaged most of the time. This is a great alternative for people like my self. Love the GPS location and notifications for car trouble and street parking. My car was stolen and found within two hours. My claim was also resolved promptly and with courtesy.”
“No guessing. Always prudent. Great communication. Excellent rates.”
“Great and commendable when one does not drive that much.”
