Bordering on theft – shameful

I was looking for the power rating of an electric motor that comes in two different versions.
This website, which seems legitimate at first glance, is a massive scam.
In fact, after entering the VIN, it claims to have information about the vehicle, with red exclamation marks regarding an accident...

I got scared, I paid, and… no accidents at all – it was a scam, and worst of all, there was no information about the motor. I’ve lost 17 euros.

This Site is a Scam!!

I would give this site zero stars if I could! On the "preview" page they hook you in by showing there is issues with the car! My report had so much missing data; including the report showing the car had zero mileage for years, so there was nothing useful in the report! On the preview, before purchasing the reports, it shows there was a salvage title and accident!! This seems like a very deceptive practice to get someone to buy a report, and should be against the law to misrepresent something, just to trick people into buying their reports! This site is a scam!!

Latest Reports Lacking Key Details

Although the first reports I purchased were helpful, the last ones I purchased were lacking significant information. They don't show the odometer reading, the purchase history or the service history. On the basis of these reports, it's impossible to know the mileage, how many owners the vehicle had, whether the vehicle sustained any damage, when the vehicle was last serviced or inspected, etc. These reports don't even show whether the vehicle has a clean title. The one I'm looking at now says NO RECORDS FOUND under Title Information. I won't be buying any more reports.

Fraudulent

Preliminary summary contained basic information (same as all free search services) as well as a list of additional information that was in the full report (which could be purchased for a fee). I paid the fee, received the report, and found that it did NOT contain the information that the preliminary summary identified as being available in the full report. In fact, there was noting in the full report that hadn't already been ascertained via free online searches. Classic fraudulent practice.

Horrible and useless report ever

Horrible and useless report ever. I purchased a report from VinCheckUp and received report that contains car spec (which can be obtained from any vin websites for free) and recall info (which also available on free sites and manufacturer website). The report shows absolutely nothing about owner history, title information and service records. Reached out to VinCheckUp support and Ahmed P. deflected my original question/request and once I was upfront about getting a refund, he responds with useless jargon and a link to terms&conditions page. DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE

Don't do it

Dont waste your money. Shows the vehicle I'm purchasing in Alabama, where it is actually sitting on a lot in BC. They just copied the same info from BC company.
Do not provide relevant information.
I actually just would not give any stars, but that's the lowest rating allow. Hopefully you read this before wasting your money.

Rip off

No real information aside from the make and model of the vehicle. Absolutely laughable. I did this one and then I used carfax and it showed all the accidents and claims there was 3 on carfax and none on the vicheck go figure Absolutely a rip off.

Fake report

I paid half the price of what I would have paid at Carfax but received no relevant information in return. The report was completely useless and feels like a scam. I strongly advise others not to waste their money.

Dont use VINCHECKUP.com

This is a scam website that provides basic information about the car, but nothing else. A Carfax obtained after this report showed all kinds of information, including maintenance services, prior ownership, traffic collisions, and much more.

When I contacted their customer support they basically replied with a form letter saying, "We do not create, verify, or guarantee the accuracy or the amount of information traced through our service."

Don't use

The vin report did not have a single relevant piece of information that the site said it would give. Everything was blank. I feel like I was robbed
