Stay away from Goodcar
Stay away from Goodcar. First, i signed up in Feb for $1.95. My report was seriously lacking information i expected like Carfax would have. I requested a cancellation that never went through. I just got charged again today and i went online to make sure it was cancelled. Chatting with the agent, they were like, "no problem, you can still use the service for another month" even though i just paid today and haven't used the service for months. When i said this wasn't good enough, they said, "I'm sorry this isn't the outcome you are looking for but you signed up and agreed to our terms!"
So once i asked to talk to a manager to escalate this, they finally said they will refund this month.

This app is terrible and scam
This app is terrible. Don't use it, it's a scam. I only paid $1.95 for a consultation, and then a few days later they charged me $29.95 and haven't refunded me.

Hello Maria,
We’re sorry about your experience and understand your concerns regarding the charge.
We would like to clarify that we offer a 7-day trial for $1.95 to access reports. During checkout, we clearly state that the trial automatically enrolls in a monthly subscription unless canceled before the end of the trial period. An Order Summary is also provided, along with a checkbox confirming acknowledgment of our Terms of Service and Billing Terms before purchase is completed.
That said, we value our customers and would appreciate the opportunity to review your account and assist further. Please contact our support team so we can look into this matter for you.
Have a great day, and stay safe!

I have tried to call for several days since signing up, with several different numbers given by Good Car Company. Left several messages with no reply. I really don't believe the recent positive reviews. It seems nearly impossible to cancel via phone or email I have tried call several times and sent a email 6 days ago with no reply. Wish I would have chosen CarFax instead.
