Consumers frequently mention that the staff and customer service team are extremely polite, professional, and exceptionally helpful throughout the entire application process. People also genuinely appreciate the fast response times and efficient guidance that make getting important documents processed much easier.

My rating is based on my dealings with…

My rating is based on my dealings with MARY, she was fantastic in dealing with my issue and query and quickly resolved it having previously tried and failed with someone else. The company itself is questionable to say the least but I give MARY 5 STARS for understanding and resolving my issue quickly.

Hidden mandatory fees

After paying the fee to perform the DBS check, I was required to pay an additional (NON DISCLOSED NON OPTIONAL) fee for my id verification. At least notify the user of this on signup if its mandatory. No alternative option that doesn't require additional funds.

Really poor.

Anonymous email so there is no retaliation

I had paid £60 for a DBS check already and these guys charged me £98

I only needed a Basic DBS check, which normally costs £21, but I was willing to pay extra because I needed it urgently. When I reached the payment page, I only consented to paying £40 for the fast-track service.

What I was not made aware of was that this company would later charge me an additional £57, on top of the £40 I had already paid and the £21 DBS fee. I also ended up paying for online ID verification and a PDF document service, which I did not realise would significantly increase the total cost.

When I spoke to Mary, she said this was covered in their terms and conditions and that they take a partial payment first before charging the remaining balance once the DBS application has been submitted. However, this was not made clear to me during the checkout process. If it had been, I would never have gone ahead with the purchase.

I feel completely misled. A Basic DBS check costs £21, so ending up paying £98 is, in my opinion, excessive and unacceptable. I have contacted my bank to dispute the charges because I do not believe the pricing was presented transparently.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend using this company.

Should have option to direct contact. Messaging service was quite complicated and confusing. Had to take someone else’s help to upload documents.

I had an email looking more details…

I had an email looking more details from this company as I gave them a bad review on trust pilot ,I sent more details and they cancelled the account for premium cloud account which we didn't sign up for , we ordered a basic police check at £29.50 for my 16 year old daughter and they also took £15 and £57 ,totalling £101 from my account,I contacted my bank and they looked into the matter and couldn't find any details as to what these charges are for so they blocked them from taking any more money from my account ,so be very wary of this company as they will just keep taking money from your account and no police check ,please look at the reviews on this company before you sign up for anything with them

Hi Karen, thank you for your message. We can see that you’ve already left a review, and we can also see that you’re currently in contact with our support team. That’s the best place for us to help you, as Trustpilot isn’t a support platform and we’re unable to resolve account‑specific issues from here.
Our team will continue working with you directly to review the charges and make sure everything is fully clarified. Please keep replying to their emails so they can assist you as quickly as possible.

They took £15.00 for what

They took £15.00 for what? Then they took another £78.50. I am a pensioner and need all the money I get just to live simply. I would like to cancel this request and have all the money taken refunded.
