Don't use it's a scam site.
Did a check and the when you go back to look at it there was nothing there. These are con merchants do not use. Update 28/05/2026. They now claim that because of different email addresses that was the reason I never got to see the check. Utter rubbish. I have the payment details on my bank statement.You took a payment via Paypal which is linked to my former business account which is still in use on Paypal. Email addresses are irrelevant. You were paid and nothing was delivered. The link they sent me as proof shows no check made. Their system is useless. They cannot be contacted by email as they only use no reply. Tells you all you need to know. Avoid.
Ripped clean off!
Paid £9.99 for a comprehensive check and never received it. Contacted customer service nothing at all. I had been using this company but don’t think I will bother again. Ripped clean off!!
Waste of time.
COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME !
AVOID ! Paid the requiired fee by text and all I got was a valuation. NOTHING ELSE. Contacting them again by premium charge texts was extra expense and was a complete waste of time. AVOID THIS COMPANY !

DON'T BOTHER!
DON'T BOTHER. The information provided was incorrect and a complete waste of money. I've seen the other reviews and blocked MyCarCheck from taking any more money.
Please, don't bother. I will be reporting this a fraudulent as soon as I've finished this review.

Paid £25 to get credits to check the history of the vehicle I want to buy but I cannot use the credits it just keeps telling me to buy more. Basically just completely ripped me off - 100% a scam. If anyone knows their customer service email please send it (although I doubtful they even have one). Avoid at all costs

Waste of money. Didn’t tell me anything free sites couldn’t tell me. Was hoping to see mot history but it shows nothing other than what I already knew. Wouldn’t recommend and will never use again.

Absolute scam beware!!
Rubbish inaccurate data
Rubbish ! Data cannot be trusted. Told me there was outstanding finance on a vehicle I was looking to buy. Finance company confirmed it had been removed on 4th November 2021, so data is 2 months out of date. They told me Experian and HPI shows this. Will be using them next time!
Don't trust them
It doesn't work! I did a test with my car which has a finance and the report says "No outstanding finance found". HPI works correctly...
