I went online to check and see if my vehicle had any recalls on it. When I asked Google it came up with an image from Carmax and below it was safercar.gov that showed the specifics of any recalls. So, I went to safercar.gov and was redirected to the vinhistoryusa.com site. The site says that it will charge you $1 to get a report on your car's VIN number. There is an *option to pay a membership every 2 weeks of $29.95. However, when you are putting in your card info & checking out, it says it's $1. But they charged (and caused my account to be overdrawn) $1 and also $29.95. When I emailed them to ask why I was charged the $29.95, they said that the web page did state that. And when I asked for a refund of the $29.95 they refused but said that they cancelled any other future "membership" charges. I told them that was a scam and is very misleading. Obviously, I wouldn't have willingly given my card info thinking I would be charged $29.95 instead of the $1 that it says just for a report regarding recalls. Which is all I thought I was requesting. And to be denied a refund is completely ridiculous and unreasonable.

I paid for a report with this company, I received the report which was noted to be $1. I continued to receive charges monthly from this company utilising different bank names.

I used a website to try to track the history of a vehicle I have. The site said the report was ready and to access it I had to pay $1, and then their membership of $29.95 would be charged every two weeks afterwards. So I paid the $1 and then I got an email saying they were not able to obtain the report. I checked my bank and they had charged me the $1 for the report they couldn't provide. They also charged me the $29.95 that their site said would not be charged until 2 weeks from now

I authorized $1 to purchase 1 report on a vin #. I was charged $29.95 by TrackThatReport8, $8.95 by FindTheirReport8 and $1 by ReportsPros. My bank cancelled the charges and my debit card. I called 202-751-4073 and was told all those belonged to Vin History USA & he offered to cancel the re-Occuring monthly $29.95 charge that I did NOT make. Scammers.

The website said that you can get a vehicle VIN history report for $1.00. It then charges you $29.95 for a 2 week subscription without any notification of the change in cost.

Was doing a VIN look up on a vehicle my daughter was thinking of buying and did not want to pay the outrageous price that CarFax charges to look up one vehicle. so I put in the VIN I was searching, then it processed for a few minutes. When it done doing it's thing, a window popped up saying the the report was ready. I clicked on the report and another screen popped up saying there was a $1.00 dollar processing fee. I entered my debit card info and I was able to get to the blank report. My card was charged two $1.00 transactions. One was from Budget Vehicle Repo Fl Miami, one was from Test Results 251 KY 251-280-1885. A few days later I was charged $4.95 from Test Results 251 KY 251-280-1885. Then on 3/23/2023, I received a call from fraud alert from my Credit Union, saying there was an attempt to charge my debit card $29.95. I had my card permanently blocked and called my Credit Union order me a new card, which by the way is very inconvenient.

I searched a vin number on this site and it said it returned a match. I was looking at buying a used bus on an auction site and this site said it was only $1 for your first vin report. I submitted payment and in no case did it show there would be a recurring fee of $29.95 every 2 weeks. It also came up AFTER I paid and it had already said it found the vin I searched- that said vin was invalid. I tried to cancel and their website requires you to call a phone number that hangs up on you or email them. I am disputing all charges with my bank.

Very similar situation here as other reviewer. Firstly I was lied by their $1 report and this is how they charged me for 3/2 service:
3/2 Trackthevin $1
3/2 Trackthevin $29.95
3/2 Budget Vehicle Reports $1
3/5 Budget Vehicle Reports $4.95
3/17 Findtheirreport $1

What's up with all these different merchant names and these random dates of charges EVEN AFTER THE CANCELLATION OF THE SERVICE was done immediately in 3/2?

TOTAL SCAM! STAY AWAY! AND REPORT!

This company bills you after you try to obtain a free Vin car report thru vin history USA.com ( which advertises free reports but informs you that there is a $1 processing fee) and charges you $29.95.

This company obtained my payment info from vin history USA.com after I tried to purchase a vin car report. I did not authorize a charge of 4.95 for any service from them or from vinhistoryusa.com. This charge showed up 4 days after using the website.

Openly advertised and claimed a $1 fee for checking a VIN. Immediately charged $30. Didn't say it was going to do that anywhere. Also the info on the VIN report was incorrect as well.

Used VinHistoryUSA to purchase report on a VIN for a used vehicle and had an authorized charge of $1.00. Credit card was charged $1.00 with transaction description of "TrackTheVin (202) 751-4073". The same day, I was charged an unauthorized fee of $29.95 with transaction description "TestResults 251-280-1885". Two days later was again charged unauthorized charge of $4.95 from "TestResults 251-280-1885". A web search found multiple other victims experiencing the same scam. It seems that these companies are registered under Jammin Enterprises, LLC in Kentucky, and the agent/manager/director name on file has been previously charged in court for fraud.

As many others, I googled free vin report &this one came up saying “absolutely free!” So I put in my info then it says only $1 & notes “companies that say they are free may give you bad info & companies that charge you $40 are taking advantage” then it throws up a little ticking countdown clock to further pressure u. I made sure I reread everything and all the fine print. I do see it says there’s a 29.95 membership every 2 weeks but it says “order summary: initial report $1 so I assume the 29$ is billed after the 2 weeks but I also don’t see that it says that I’m signing up with a membership so idk if that’s just another option that I didn’t choose or what…. But it says summary total $1. Wrong $30 billed immediately. Ok I chalk that up to my stupidity. But then I still have no access to the website as I was supposed to for this $29 fee so what is the fee actually for?
I immediately follow the online directions to cancel and apply for a refund easy process but neither worked. The lady told me my account would be canceled after 3 days. 3 days later I got another 4.95 charge. I started googling vinhistoryusa.com scam & see from other peoples stories it can get a whole lot worse so I’ve had to contact my bank now to freeze my card

They say they charge $1 for a vehicles vin history and after they charged me $1 they tried two times to take $29.95 from me for a service I never signed up for. Then they charged my $5 when they my bank labeled the $60 they were trying to take out as fraud.
