Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 335 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently report being charged for recurring monthly subscriptions, typically around £39-£40, after initially making a single, low-cost payment of about £5-£6 for a car check. Many people state these subsequent charges were unauthorized and unexpected, as they believed they were making a one-off purchase. Reviewers often describe the company's practices as misleading and deceptive, with the subscription terms not being clearly disclosed. The website's design is criticized for intentionally hiding subscription details and lacking clear options to cancel these recurring payments. Consumers also mention not receiving email notifications or agreements for these subscriptions, making it difficult to track or terminate them. Many customers expressed strong concerns about these actions, with some needing bank intervention to stop the unauthorized charges.

AVOID these scammers

I wanted to check out a car I was planning on buying. This site appeared and I paid for the search, which was at a fair discounted price of £5.95. Payment went through, and I thought that was that.
The following day, another payment went through for £39.90. This seems to be a scam site. AVOID at all costs. Now I am having to go through the process of cancelling cards, etc

We’re very sorry to read your feedback and understand how upsetting this situation has been for you.

We would like to clarify that when purchasing a vehicle report at a discounted price (such as £5.95), it includes a 7-day trial to our premium platform. After the trial period, the subscription continues at £39 per month unless cancelled. These details are displayed clearly on the pricing page, at checkout, and in the confirmation email sent after purchase. Subscriptions are never activated without prior disclosure.

We completely understand how frustrating it can feel if the subscription terms were missed, especially when expecting a one-off report.

If you are experiencing issues with unexpected charges or cancelling the subscription, we would like the opportunity to review your case and provide assistance. Please contact our support team at contact@checkmycar.io
or call +44 20 4579 8987 (Monday to Saturday, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m.), and we will investigate your account promptly to find a fair resolution.

We hope you will allow us the chance to clarify and resolve this matter. Once addressed, we would greatly appreciate you considering updating your review to reflect the outcome.

AVOID scam

AVOID, I got suckered into the £39 subscription. Tried to use the email termination, but couldn’t recognise my email address even though it was the one I logged in with.

Had to call them, and though they answered quickly, the operator was insistent that I was the one in the wrong and it was clear in their website. Reading their reviews there must be a lot of blind people out there.

Operator cancelled my “subscription” without so much of an apology and refused to refund.

I wish I read these reviews before I was suckered in by this low price for a one of report.

Used this company to check a car we were buying. We actually searched for car vertical, but this company came up and had the 'tag line' car vertical. Purposely misleading straight from the start! Be warned, using this company will result in you being signed up to a subscription of £39 a month, not at all clear on their website, and deliberately misleading.

Thought I was checking a vehicle…

Thought I was checking a vehicle history with a reputable company. Got charged about £5.99 for a report that was useless with no more details on it than I was able to find out on the DVLC for free (I suspect that is where they pull the info they give you from).
Several months later I was trying to track a payment for some electronic components and noted a £39.99 per month going out to something I did not recognise. It seems they charge it afterwards for as long as you don't notice it going out. Utter scamers of a company.

These terms are displayed clearly on the pricing page, during checkout, and in the confirmation email.

I was charged a monthly subscription…

I was charged a monthly subscription fee of £39.90/£39.99 without my knowledge or consent. I only intended to purchase a single report, and I never signed up for any recurring payments. This is a complete scam and a theft of my money. I demand an immediate full refund. I have already reported this fraudulent activity to my bank. Avoid this website at all costs!

Same a lot of people here fell for the sneaky tactic of charging £39 for an unwanted subscription, impossible to cancel and written in a minuscule text just below the £5 pound charge. It's unbelievable that such scamming companies are allowed to operate.

2. Impossible to cancel? We want to fix this for you right now. You don't need to struggle with the website; our team can handle this manually for you. We offer a 30-day 'Satisfied or Refunded' guarantee, and we will be happy to refund the £39.00 charge in full.

Be careful they can start payments again with no nitice

Be careful, I fell for the £39 a month scan as did many others, I managed to cancel the subscription eventually. Now 14 months later they charge me again out of the blue with no warning, using the same card details as a recurring payment. Nothing for 14 months then this. Reported to the bank as fraud. I have had to cancel my card and order a new one to prevent them using the same number. Absolute thieves

Beware the hidden subscription charge!

One more unsuspecting punter who experienced an unexpected monthly subscription charge of £39.90 following the attempted purchase of a single £5.95 report. Luckily, HSBC's Fraud team caught it for me.

I usually check everything on TrustPilot before purchasing and very rarely get caught out, but this site was similar enough in name and appearance to a reputable one that I have used previously that I thought I was using that. Lesson learned.

I believe that this organisation is in breach of various aspects of marketing legislation, consumer contracts regulations and the Data Protection Act 2018.

DO NOT GO NEAR THIS COMPANY - Scam - Thieves

As everyone else mentions, this company is a scam and then steal money from your account. I paid £5.95 to check a used car registration number. Three months later I notice a direct debit for £39 going out of my account to HP Check My Car Ireland. Contacted my bank Barclays who canceled the DD's and are investigating through Fraud. Dodgy company and the owners should be put away for years.

Deceitful company, AVOID!

Just like the rest of the victims. They signed me up to a monthly subscription of £39.90 I wasn't aware of, until I seen 2 months of payments taken from my bank. No email notifications of subscription or payments taken. The subscription is purposely well hidden on their website to trick customers into there deceitful practices. If they were genuine, they would actually take action on customer reviews and actually amend their website to make it much much clearer, regarding monthly subscriptions. Of course that hasn't been done as this is how they are making their money by bad ethics and morals. Shameful.

Their email responses seems generic. Using "dear customer", not even using my name. Never heard back from them when I requested a refund. Do not use.

Paid a one off payment of 5.95 to check my car. A day later they tried to take 39.90 out of my bank, only for the bank informing me they had put a stop on the card I wouldn't have known. I phoned the company and asked why they had done this, she said it was an automatic subscription because I had made the 5.95 payment. She was all made up with herself when she said she had cancelled it (big wow as I didn't sign up for it in the first place) told her it was a big scam to which she said "no it isnt" and put the phone down. Stay AWAY from this company. Its theft in a legal way. If I could have given it 0 I would have done as the don't even deserve the 1. Be warned and read all the reviews

FRAUDTSERS, POLICE INVESTIGATION PENDING

This scum of a company charged my card for £39.90, I've never used this website ever, put in every single email address I own to see if there was some sort of subscription linked to this website, of course not a single email has been used with the company.

They tried to charge my card for the exact same amount on 24th Jan 2025 but under the company name CHECKMYCAR1. Obviously I've disputed with my card and will be refunded

But everyone needs to know this company is full of fraudsters that are sold stolen card details from a third party, police investigation pending on these lot.

EDIT
Ignore the automated robotic replies, no email address was used on their platform, or they’re malicious and clear account history which you will notice from several other negative reviews.

You scammed the wrong person!

Hello,

Thank you for your message. We take concerns like yours very seriously and want to clarify the situation.

Our platform includes a free trial period and all subscriptions are tied to accounts created on our site. No payments are taken without a user registering and entering their card details directly. If you did not create an account, it’s possible that a third party attempted an unauthorised transaction using your card. In this case, your bank’s dispute and refund process is the correct step, as it ensures your protection.

We encourage anyone who sees unexpected charges to contact their bank immediately and to reach out to our support team if they believe there is any connection to a legitimate account. Our team can verify and cancel any subscriptions associated with your details if necessary.

Hello Alex,

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We’re truly sorry to read that your experience led you to feel this way, and we understand how alarming it can be to see unexpected payment alerts.

We want to reassure you that CheckMyCar.io is a legitimate service and that no card details are ever “wiped” or misused.
