Payments

Paying and refunds

Is this a subscription?
No. Every purchase is a one-off payment. Nothing renews.
How long do checks in a pack last?
Unused checks stay valid for 24 months from purchase and work on any car. Your account shows how many you have left.
What if a report cannot be produced?
If we cannot produce a report, for example because no record exists for the registration, the check goes straight back into your account.
Can I get a refund?
Because a report is delivered straight away, the usual 14-day cancellation right ends once it has been supplied. Unused checks in a pack can be refunded within 14 days of purchase. Something wrong with a report? Tell us and we will put it right. Full details are in our terms.
How do I pay?
By card through Stripe, a secure payment provider. We never see or store your full card details.
Do you offer business accounts?
For larger volumes, the pack of 10 brings a check down to £3.00. If you need more than that, contact us.
