To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software.

Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 62 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers found the service to be very helpful and a necessary part of buying a car, providing valuable insights into a vehicle's history, faults, and potential issues. They appreciated that the service could save them from scams and headaches, offering a good understanding of what they were considering purchasing, often at a reasonable price compared to competitors. Some also highlighted the ease of use and the detailed information provided, with the free check often being considered excellent. However, a significant number of people expressed dissatisfaction with the pricing, feeling that the checks were too expensive for the information received, especially when similar details could be obtained for less or even for free elsewhere. Many reviewers felt misled by the product offerings, as they often had to pay extra for service history reports, even after purchasing what they believed to be a 'full' or 'comprehensive' report. There were also complaints about inaccurate or missing information in the reports, including incorrect vehicle images, false red flags, or a lack of data for which customers were still charged. Payment issues, such as being charged multiple times or experiencing difficulties with card details, were also reported.

Hey Daniel.

We have replied. Please be sure to check your junk/spam.

As for your enquiry you made, you purchased the report for CE06 HUG. There is no such report under that registration. We do offer a data guarantee through experian. However, as mentioned, for the reg above, now report has been purchased.

Brilliant! Was about to test drive a car, hopefully to buy, did a quick check through vehiclescore and found out it has an outstanding finance agreement, yet to conclude this situation, but I’am now pre-warned.
