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.

Safety starts with understanding how developers collect and share your data. Data privacy and security practices may vary based on your use, region, and age. The developer provided this information and may update it over time.
Paid for 2 reports, got 1 with the other nowhere to be found in the app, have had to pay another provider for this in the meantime. My emails have also been ignored asking what's happened, but they're happy to bombard you with marketing junk. The report provided is no better than what you can get elsewhere for a fraction of the price. The app and website are also terrible, with bits in the app refusing to load or work most of the time. Avoid!

Not satisfied at all. Last 2 reports came almost blank. Probably, this is a result of some kind of "personal data protection", but Carvertical still claims "full report". How can it be "full", when you het nothing, what you paid for? App doesn't sync with same account on other devices. That was crucial issue when tried to check car on field. Customer support works good tho, they tried to compensate those 2 reports... But my experience, as a customer, is very bad. I wouldn't recommend it. Sorry.

Please read before purchasing!! The service that carVertical is very expensive compared to others and from my experience not worth paying for. It does not find mileage issues! Over 40% of the customers on Trustpilot score them 1 star, and I can now see why. They will take your money and do not care that their reports are incomplete. Do not use them. Autotader is 3rd of the price and gives the same results.
