I should have known better, I paid my dollar for a report that was not only incorrect but incomplete. I was then told via email to use the "Autocheck" report and that "any expense would be promptly reimbursed" by Car History Records.So I spent the $25 for an Autocheck, emailed the receipt, and was told "please contact our manager for further assistance".

Be Ware, I was reviewing their website and thought I was trying the free vin look up as I was interested in purchasing a used car. Somehow I got charged $1 and then an ongoing monthly charge of $18.95 which I no way authorized. I remember about a $1 lookup fee but didn't think my credit card went through. I contacted my credit card company and they will dispute the charge and issue me a new credit card. I also contacted the company and they were happy to cancel the charges but I will wait and see what the credit card company says when they issue me my new card. This was very sneaky on the part of the website and I believe this is false advertising. It seems like if you do one vin search they automatically bill you the monthly fee when it was never authorized nor was it mentioned in any on line documentation at the time of the vin search.

As with most of the other reviews, I was of the understanding that the report was $1, but when I checked my bank account it showed up as $18.95! Nowhere on their site did it indicate that that was the charge. When I disputed this they were very polite and accommodating. We will see, though, if they did, in fact, close my account, void and remove the remaining charges.

Paid the $1 for a car report in April. Actually, the report wasn't too bad.

Found out about the $18.75 charge when I got my CC bill. Paid it because I did use the service for the one car.

Just found out about a second charge in May for $18.75. Filed an unauthorized charge with my financial institution.

Then I found this website. If this continues to be a problem, I will file the form with the US Gov Internet rip off people.

I pursued a $1 VIN report with carhistory.us.org and have spent over an hour with an online assistant trying to get reimbursed. I was told there was no phone #s for any of the managers, and that I could only communicate through email. I so regret the decision to believe I could get a $1 report. Caveat Emptor, this is a deceptive outfit.

Do not use this site. If you have they will charge you $18.95 even though they claim it's a $1 charge. In addition to that Both cards that I used said they were declined yet they charged me anyway so now I have to worry about my other card being charged too. I called them and they claim they're going to give a refund within 3 to 5 days. I'll be checking back and reporting them as necessary!

Don't use this site, their stated fee is a lie and the information they send back to you is less accurate than cargurus or other sites. The vehicle I searched through them came back with no issues but both cargurus and my bank found that the frame was damaged. This site is unreliable and a rip off.

total scam. Tried two cards and both said declined. Said the fee was supposed to be $1 and nowhere else did it claim of any other kind of fee then looking I was charged $18.95. They claim they'll give a refund in 3 to 5 days but I will check on it again and report them as necessary.

The car history was good. I found it a little hard to make sense of at first as I was used to using and reading Carfax, but I was tired of paying $39.99 for a car history too! So I took a little time and it was fine.

What further email needs to be sent

I put my credit card information in for the $1.00 charge. No mention of any additional charges. I entered it 3 times since it kept bouncing back. I know my card is good so I couldn't understand. NOW I DO. That particular account I placed I was going to place the $1 charge on had 12 dollars in it. Glad it didn't go through. Rip off artists.

BBB, is but a shadow of its former self!

Setting aside I got dinged for $18.95, the main problem I had is that the reports are not detailed like CARFAX. It only states if a car has Salvage or Rebuilt title issues but does not explain why. CARFAX is much more detailed and goes into greater depth about accidents. Also, for one report, CarHistory.us did not show that the car had been in an accident, but the CARFAX did. So there is missing data here.

With that said, you do get 25 reports. I was able to track down some of the cars I previously owned going back 10 years. So I guess I'll just use my 25 reports then cancel before the next billing cycle.

If your are looking for a trip down memory lane, this is a cheap way to do so. However, if you are looking for a detailed report on the VIN# you will only get basic information. It's not worth it unless you plan on running a lot of VINs and even then the data may not be accurate.

BEWARE. They absolutely take advantage of people that don't necessary look at their credit card statement carefully, but then again that's how they make their money, sneaking charges onto unsuspecting customers credit cards. I also was charged the $18.95 and "signed up" for a year subscription that I did not authorize. Yes they will refund your card once you call them out on it, but nevertheless SHAME ON THEM.

I paid for their 1.00 report to check out a truck I was considering purchasing and the report was informative and helpful. However they billed me an additional 18.95 about 15 days after this transaction that I did not authorize. I don't recall anywhere in the online billing literature stating there would be a reoccurring charge of 18.95 monthly. I contacted them and their customer service representative was very helpful cancelling the reoccurring charge and said I would be receiving a refund for the 18.95 in 3 to 5 business days. Bottom line is this type of unauthorized billing tactics are becoming more and mote common these days and in my opinion is a deceptive and unethical business practice that prays on consumers that do not monitor their bank accounts carefully. My advise if you chose to purchase their car report to immediately call them and cancel the service once you have obtained the report to insure you are not getting over charged above what you approved to be charged.
