carVertical is a car check and VIN check app that helps UK drivers review vehicle history before buying a used car. Check the vehicle history before you pay and use available records to spot costly hidden issues.
Enter a VIN to review available mileage records, accident and damage history, theft records, taxi use, historical photos, ownership changes, price history, and other important vehicle information.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Find the VIN in the vehicle documents, on the dashboard, or on the body. Enter the VIN in the carVertical app. Get a detailed vehicle history report and compare the records with the seller's claims.
WHAT CAN A REPORT INCLUDE?
If available, carVertical reports may include mileage history, damage records, theft checks, previous use, historical photos, price changes, ownership changes, service-related details, equipment information, and other facts that help you understand a vehicle's past.
WHY CHECK VEHICLE HISTORY?
Mileage rollbacks, hidden damage, previous accidents, theft records, and poorly maintained vehicles can lead to expensive repairs or safety concerns. A car history check helps you make a more confident decision before buying, selling, or inspecting a used car.
Use carVertical for car checks, VIN checks, vehicle history reports, mileage checks, damage history, theft checks, historical photos, ownership details, price history, service records, equipment details, and used car research before you buy.
Download carVertical and check a VIN before your next used car purchase.
Have checked many cars with CarVertical. 90% of the cars have no info at all,or just 1 mileage info. High price for low info.I rather do vehicle check with dealer. Its higher price but info is much much better,and source is trusted. On Car Vertical many car damages are listed without pictures or naming source. Only one car had pictures,from add and full milege history About 15 car i have checked so far. Its not a good number....

Thank you for sharing your experience. We truly appreciate the time you've spent using the service and checking multiple vehicles. It's important to note that we collect data from various sources in real time, but the amount of information available can vary significantly from one car to another, depending on how much data is recorded and shared by the data sources. Since we do not own or create the data ourselves, we cannot guarantee that every report will include details such as accident photos. That said, your feedback is extremely valuable, and we’ll continue working to improve both the coverage and clarity of our reports. If you'd like to discuss your experience, feel free to contact our customer satisfaction team at support@carvertical.com.
Credits expiry - beyond ridiculous
Grof Flek
About a year ago, bought a pack of three credits, since the pack seemed a better deal per credit than buying a single credit. However, today, a year later, I got a mail stating that my remaining credit (spent 2 of 3) will expire in three days.God forbid that CarVertical would clearly state the credits have expiry date when I was buying the package. I feel cheated, and would advise anyone to steer clear od this scam of an app/service
Developer Response
We understand your concern and apologize for any confusion. Please be reminded that report credits are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase, and this information is communicated to clients in several places, including your account, the Terms of Service and the "Help" section. Additionally, we send reminders via email a few days before the credits expire. If you need further assistance or have questions, feel free to contact us at support@carvertical.com.
Reports expiring
Smyblue
The App is quite nice and useful but the bad thing is that the credits which you use to generate a report have an expiry date
Developer Response
Hello, thank you for sharing your feedback. Our reports are valid for 30 days from the date of generation, and we do recommend saving the report in PDF format during that period if you believe it will be needed later. By keeping old reports accessible via our website, we would risk misleading vehicle buyers and sellers. This information is available in your carVertical account, in our Terms of Service and the "Help" section on our platform.We understand your concerns and will consider how we can better communicate this in the future to avoid any confusion. If you have further questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out to us at support@carvertical.com.We appreciate your input and hope to improve your experience going forward.
Not much info

For a car 5 years old I didn’t get any info for milage and registration
Developer Response
Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand how frustrating it must be when the report doesn't give you the details you were hoping for. Our platform gathers data from numerous trusted sources, but there are times when specific details may not be reported if they haven't been recorded in the data sources that we rely on. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and your feedback will help us continue improving the value of our reports. If you'd like to discuss your experience, feel free to contact our customer satisfaction team at support@carvertical.com.
