I used MyCarCheck to do a deep dive on over half a dozen classic cars I was thinking of buying. The reports I got back for each car were invaluable in helping me discount those that had a troublesome... See more

A complete rip off, it says free but it isn't, avoid there is cheaper ones
Shocking experience
Shocking experience! Avoid at all costs. Would give zero stars if possible AVOID AVOID AVOID
Waste of money
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.
Shows clear but car is write off
Don't check cars on this site it said this car was clear I go on vcar and low and behold it's a write off atrocious says green no record of write off but on vcar there's pictures of it smashed up at co part
*****Do not use at any cost******…
*****Do not use at any cost****** Report said car was not a write off but after I purchased it I found out it was. I'm now thousands out of pocket. Response from MyCar Check

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 Finance company confirmed it had been removed on 4th November 2021, so data is 2 months out of date.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...
Lost car sale because of them my car…
Lost car sale because of them my car come up as outstanding finance after checked on HPI showed clean but the buyer was already scared. Please Do Not Use then go straight to HPI they r the best
My Car Check on mobile - not working but charging full price.
I used My Car Check via mobile on many, many occasions now. On an odd occasions I would not get the full information pack. This was annoying. The last FIVE checks were missing 50% - 100% of the data but I was still charged the full price! Car buyers BEWARE!!!!
Good Old Days !
As a senior citizen, I really appreciated the fantastic service provided at mycar Clyde. It was a flashback to the good old days. Lachie and Henry were extremely helpful, happy to help, knowledgeable and quick and efficient. Return customer for life!
Worst service in my life
Worst service in my life. I do not recommend it to anyone
Nearly cost me the sale of my car…
Nearly cost me the sale of my car informing the potential buyer that it had outstanding finance on a 20 year old car!! Said finance was taken out oct 2006 for 198 month term !! and that it was taken out with Lloyds, who found this very comical on the phone chat I had with them! Used 2 other companies to preform the check and it came back clean as a whistle! Avoid
Bought this to check a car I was going…
Bought this to check a car I was going to purchase came back clear. I bought the car on this basis then when someone had said it was damaged I did a further check and it came back stating that it had been a Category N damaged car. How can they get this wrong its a straight lift from the DVLA!! Useless service if the data is wrong on such a major point and no come back of course
If I could give this service 0 stars I…
If I could give this service 0 stars I would. They do not offer any guarantee as to the accuracy of the information within the report. I bought a car on the basis of the no outstanding finance entry within their report only to find out that the car was in fact on finance. It is likely that I'll lose the car and the money I paid. Avoid at all costs and make use of either HPI or Experian as both offer insurance against incorrect information as standard. |
Terrible lying service
Terrible service, gave me false information on my car saying it had outstanding finance when it hadn’t after paying. I wouldn’t recommend this service . I then had to use confused.com which gave the the correct information.
Never use them ever, nothing is accurate and no comeback
THEY dont reply to you. They have no gaurantees against wrong information. I paid for the searches on a vehicle that came back as not stolen etc etc. It was stolen, I had no come back and lost 13000... this is not a joke, they are not worth wasting your time. Pay the AA for a vehicle check. I will never use them again and tell everyone I know that they are a waste of time.
Great simple and informative
Great simple and informative. I’ve used the service a few times now. I will always use it and have recommended it to friends.
My car check
My car check, has given me the confidence when buying a car, saved me a lot of wasted time, worry and money, after finding out my very first car i brought was a accident right off having been sold this by a most honest? i say that word loosely so called man, i would never ever think of buying a car without mycarcheck again, such an easy site to use, great value for money.
Used this site for years now always buy…
Used this site for years now always buy a bundle used 2 only last night to find the cars I was looking at had 8 owners each an not the 4 claimed saves you a lot of money an time. Best just do a proper hpi 👍🏻
