While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 155 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Customers generally find the user experience to be helpful, trustworthy, and easy to use, making tasks like paying car tax straightforward. Many appreciate the simplicity and ease of navigation, especially those who are not particularly tech-savvy. However, a significant number of people were dissatisfied with the pricing and subscription model, often feeling misled into paying for services that are available for free elsewhere. Many reported unexpected monthly charges after an initial small fee, believing they were using an official government website. The website itself also drew mixed opinions, with some finding certain input fields confusing or the process lengthy.
