Why provide a FREE check?

       
mycarcheck - car data check

It was initially hoped that providing you with the ability to undertake a free search would ensure you remembered us when it came time to buy your next second-hand car and wished to check it out before you handed over your hard earned cash.  We all tend to buy to our income and a vehicle purchase represents a big lump of our disposable income, a sum criminals are only too eager to take from us.  We do hope you will appreciate this service, place us on your list of favourites and return to us regularly possibly even purchasing a check at some stage to undertake a full search using the link to the left.

 

 
     
  However, it soon became evident that there were other uses for the data, other means by which the facility could benefit you:  

 
Insurance Claim Has someone stolen a vehicle from you?  You have reported the crime to the police, advised your insurers and are now waiting for their offer of settlement ... but what if:
  • the police overlooked placing your vehicle on the PNC (Police National Computer) as 'stolen' or
  • vehicle was found (recovered) buy no one told you?

If the car is not on the PNC as 'stolen' then anyone enquiring of the registration mark (police, insurers, automatic number plate readers etc.) will not be alerted to its stolen status - the vehicle is highly unlikely to be 'recovered'; located and returned.  Now you can ensure your vehicle is recorded as stolen.

If the vehicle is found, you want to know about it.  The vehicle may be undamaged and driveable; it can be retuned to you and your claim withdrawn.  No need to hire a car or buy a new one.  Sadly, too many victims are not advised that their car has been found, errors occur.  Now you can check the vehicle whenever you wish to see if it has been removed from the stolen register.

If the car is not on the PNC as 'stolen' your insurance company will either query whether it was in fact stolen or if it has been recovered.  If the latter, you want to know immediately so the insurers can appoint an engineer to inspect any damage and decide whether to repair or write-off.  You do not want this process delayed.

If your vehicle is not on the stolen register and no one has told you it has been found your claim will be delayed but on the bright side, you may not need to claim.  Insurers check the stolen register, now you can:

   

Abandoned vehicles Possibly the vehicle at the end of your road has not moved for some days, does not fit with the surroundings, or has an out of date tax, possibly the person who walked away from it was not someone from the neighbourhood or it could simply be your sixth sense, a gut reaction - something is not quite right.

By all means phone the police or your local council to advise them of the abandoned vehicle but don't expect them to tell you the car is on the PNC as stolen.  Now you can see for yourself:

   

Pre-purchase Possibly all you wish to do is see if the vehicle you are about to buy, or are interested in, is on the stolen register.  Be our guest:
   

Curiosity You want to check the registration mark.  Why is your concern and we are unlikely to cover every reason.  However, if you feel your interest would be of interest to us and should be publicised possibly because its a public service, please tell us using our feedback link.  In the meantime, please fee free to:
