About Instantcarcheck
Where the data comes from
Each report pulls together several official and industry sources. DVLA records supply details such as colour changes and import or export history. Mileage readings are checked against the National Mileage Register, which belongs to HPI. Finance checks are optional and supplied by HPI Check, revealing any agreement still outstanding. MOT history is included as well.
Making the most of a report
Run the check before you pay a deposit rather than after. If the report flags finance, a write-off or a mileage problem, raise it with the seller before going any further. Reports are generated within seconds, sent by email and kept online, so you can check a car on the spot.
Paying and support
Payment options are Visa, Mastercard, PayPal and Apple Pay. As a digital report service, there is nothing physical to return. Customer service runs seven days a week: 8am to 6pm on weekdays, 8am to 5pm on Saturdays and 10am to 5pm on Sundays. The app also offers rewards, and referring friends earns rewards too.
