I had cardataonline do an unauthorized charge to my debit card. They credited me right away. When I asked them how they got my debit card number, they refused to answer.

There is a ton of items not listed on your report, that were listed on carfax and are verified by our personal auto records. I am disappointed in the data that I received from cardataonline.com. It was a complete waste of $1.00

Misinformation

I paid the $1 dollar to get information I received the information I requested. But a couple days later I was charged $28.95 when I did not select a monthly. Plan I spoke with the online chat a few days ago but the charge is still on my account as of writing this post.
