“Works well, needs improve”

Sy K.
7/11/24

They collect the information very well, showed it with cheap promotion. I searched two cars, first one via plate number and the second other one via vin. Vin research worked pretty well. But plate number, as soon as I paid for the membership right after I search the first car and saw that the report is ready. There was nothing. Even if they sent another link that I can get the free record. I still doubt that was the best they could.

“Absolute SCAM”

Becca E.
9/17/24

Site is an absolute scam. RUN AWAY. The $1 report produced absolutely nothing. Then, canceling the subscription is absolutely impossible. If you call, they tell you to ask the chat bot. If you chat, they tell you to email. In the email they send you to a link that doesn't work. SCAM. SCAM. SCAM.

It's amazing that this site is even still operating. They have nothing to offer, and will only take.

Tip for consumers:
They continually update and use different names such as: "Findthereport" or "Trackthevin". They offer a $1 trial, which if you accept them immediately you are charged $29.95.

They say they will give you a vehicle review for $1.00. After you authorize the $1.00 they will charge your card $24.95 for their monthly service.

Tip for consumers:
Watch your credit card charges. There $1.00 report will really cost you $25

I received notification from Experian that there was a lien on my car, and this company was sponsored by Google. It ended up being a lien from the previous owner when he financed the car, it wasn't active. But like everyone else on this thread, I paid the advertised $1 for the VIN report, no invoice or total to pay listed, just the $1 VIN report and clicked on the check out button. Next thing I know I'm charged $25 on a separate charge. The phone number for them is disconnected but I found another on their website, and chose the refund option on their switchboard (already a bad sign if you have a refund option.) Went through that process as well as trying to live chat with someone going through the same refund process. I disputed the $25 charge with my credit card company and waited for the refund only to be charged another $4.95 by this company for IDK what days later at 2 AM. Now I had to report it as fraudulant and go through the process of getting a new credit card. On top of all of that, they seem to have sold my information due to getting a bunch of spam calls on my cellphone and emails. I've already reported them to Google so hopefully they remove them as a top "sponsored" search result. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY AND SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE.

Don't

Bogus report and got scammed as I was only signing up for the advertised $1 report. No cart, nothing in the verification email telling you the REAL charges!
