“PURCHASSE OF MY JEEP”

Edward G.
6/1/21

As advertised. Quick, easy, no hassles. Came to my house on time. Michael Mullinax was very professional. Took less than an hour to complete everything, including signing paperwork and presenting a check for the amount estimated on phone. Picked the vehicle up the next day. A pleasure doing business with him and them. Thank you "

“Scam, got charged $28.95 instead of $1.00! Closed down my cred it card!”

Judy A.
8/8/23

The agreement looks like you are paying $1.00 for a report on your car. However, you are charged $28.95! We received a text moments after I agreed to the $1.00. "Chase Fraud: Did (my name) charge $28.95 at VEHICLE HISTORY on 8/07? Reply YES or NO." We replied NO and my credit card was instantly closed down! Clearly, Chase has had problems with VEHICLE HISTORY in the past to send me a fraud alert. Now, I have to update all my auto payments relating to my card! To say that I'm angry is an understatement! Do not do business with this company, you will be sorry.

Was charged the advertised 1.00. Then charged again 3 more times for unauthorized transactions. Called the number asking for a refund and was told I would receive a call back. Have not heard back at all. Submitting a claim with my bank.

Horrible customer service and site. I was overcharged when it mentioned a certain price and then they put me in a monthly payment. When I tried to get a refund through chat and email support, 3 times I had to ask for a refund. All times they stated it was being canceled then even tho I canceled it a week prior. They don't send email confirmations and don't even try to contact you for help. Said a week ago that it would be 3-5 days for a refund posted but I see no pending refunds and no email confirmation. Worse company and service ever. They do not even try to help you. Just empty words about having tech support reach you shortly. Do not go through this horrible company. My worst experience EVER trying to get service and help.

Tip for consumers:
Don’t use their services or spend money. You’ll wait forever on replies and no proof of refund.

This is an update on my prior review which was based on a promise of a $10 amazon card for a 5 star review. Vehiclehistory.com never sent the giftcard and never responded to emails inquiring about it. Liars and scam artists

VehicleHistory.com is scam! I agreed to a 1.00 charge, then was charged 19.95. I called support and was issued a confirmation number cancelling all future charges but was told that i agreed to the online bill of 19.99, it had been processed and they would not do anything about that. I have contested the charge with my credit card company, and have a standing agreement with them that if it reappears next month they will credit my account and then i would have to cancel the card/change the account number..

Well... DO NOT use this site. I wanted info about a vehicle the other day and was charged more than I expected to pay. Today they said I would receive and email if I gave them information, which they already have, to resolve the issue I had with them. Tonight I was told I would receive an email within an HOUR, no message rec'd yet. I, too, was told I would receive a gift card for amazon if I would reconsider my comments on this site. Believe me I will share this with everyone I know on every social media source available.
