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

Great company. The free check is quite handy when browsing for cars. I always use the paid comprehensive check when actually buying a car. I wouldn’t go elsewhere.
Everything I wanted to know, and much more. Excellent free service with the option much more info. Perfect for what I needed and as simple as putting in the registration number.
Having access to the complete MOT history. Being able to review failure points and conclude as too whether the vehicle details had been misrepresented by the seller.

Worth paying for?
Most of the information provided can be found if you obtain the car's 11 digit code from its C5 and enter it into the appropriate Gov website. Getting the code is necessarily easy

Reply from Carcheck.co.uk - Car check
You’re absolutely right — the UK Government website allows you to check MOT information quickly using the vehicle registration.
However, Carcheck provides much more than just MOT data. In addition to MOT history, we also offer service history, damage records, detailed vehicle specifications, images, stolen vehicle checks, and more
If you have paid for something you didn’t need, please contact us and we’ll be happy to arrange a refund.
Very Useful

Disappointing, I just paid for a premium report expecting the report to include a valuation, but valuation was not included in the report received.
