text these people to check on any outstanding finance on a car. came back with all the information I did not want or need, and missing the info regarding finance. total waste of time and money, if I knew who they were I would ask for a refund. stay away totally useless site, pay a bit more and get your moneys worth. very disappointing. rang the finance company myself and sorted it. pay more get the real deal stay away from these amateurs, its a worthless text of no real value.

So, its cheap and cheerful. But be aware, the website is missleading, I paid £4 for finance to be included, and like others have said, it is asking for £5 more for the finance. It also is not listing anything for mileage. Therefore, its a bit shady and thus makes you question how accurate it is? It's a glorified service that is not worth much, only thing it told me I didn't know was the Vin number and that it wasn't written off. If I was buying something over 5K I would def not recommend but for something under, then I guess its ok, but still not great!

Paid £4 for service and reply omitted comments regarding finance outstanding and mileage. Subsequent text asked for £5 more for Outstanding Finance check and £3 for the mileage. I feel cheated. I won't usr this service again and recommend others avoid it.

On the main site it quoted that the search will include outstanding finance which is the main reason I done the hpi check. But after I received the texts it say I have to pay another 5 pounds for finance check. The information they sent me is all available on.the dvla site.

You wasted your hard earned cash use the DVLA for free. This company use misleading information to get your money, you pay £5.00 extra for finance information, sounds very close to fabrication of the truth.

My weekend was spent relaxing and enjoying my new motoer thanks to textreg. I did a check on Friday night ready for Saturday mornign and all was great, bought the car with confidence.

The mileage on the car I am about to by has just come back from textreg check and it is way out. Im not even going to argue it with the seller, just not touching the car now. Make sure you check a car before you buy it so you dont get burnt

I am going to buy a car tomorrow and i did a textreg check on it last night to make sure im all prepared to haggle with the seller. There are a couple of things that the check has come back with that the seller hasnt mentioned so im going to try and use them to get some cash off!!!!!!!!

I am in the trade so i have used loads of different reg checking services before. I only ever use textreg now, cheap and fast which is what i need from it.

thank text reg for helping me out, ive never bought a car before and was stressing as i thought i was going to get ripped off. done a textreg check and all is now good, thanks

Would use again if I needed to, gave me everything I needed about my car with just one text message. And it only cost 3 quid! Bargain

I sent off for a textreg report today with some reservations, I had bought a car last week and for some reason had some niggling doubts about its authenticity. I am happy to report that textreg came back as all clear!! Very pleased!

This is now the second time i've used textreg to check out a car. This time was just as quick as the last and the info was just as good, staying away from the car now as the report just doesn't match what the seller is telling me.

My dad was about to pay £15 for a check but I told him about textreg. He saved himself a load of money plus he found out the car he wants to buy is genuine. Would use again in an instant

Three Goods for textreg!! Helped me out in my hour of need, saw a second hand car on my lunch break at a price that was more than reasonable, did a textreg check and the text came back straight away. One trip to the bank later and the car was mine within the hour!

Just overall very easy, set reg number, got text back with data. It was all I needed, simple cheap and quick. Have bought my car now and would use again if I had to buy another one.

Did a mileage check with textreg last night on a car i bought 2 weeks ago. Turns out the mileage is way out, spoke to the garage this morning and they have agreed to take the car back and refund me. Glad I did the check now, just wish I had done it before though

But you could have got that info for free from the DVLA
