Just a scam

Just a scam. Costing me loads. I can’t get my money back and have never received the dbs. And still they keep charging me £8 a month.

Don't forget county checks

These background checks are thorough as long as you pay all the extra fees to click every single option. Their base checks aren't that great. CLICK TO SEARCH LOCAL COUNTIES OR A "CLEAR" BACKGROUND CHECK MAY BE MISLEADING!

I would have left a negative star…

I would have left a negative star rating but this was not available. Was charged £101 pounds by Clearcheck for a DBS check. Also charged for document verification. Never received my certificate and was charged £8 a month until I cancelled my credit card. These scammers should be prosecuted.

SCAMMERS

Pretty much the same as all the other comments, £86 initial check, and then £8 per month for…???I’m currently trying to get a refund, but strangely they can’t find my details.Can’t think of why I didn’t go straight to the gov.uk site (just over £20 all done in next to no time).Clear Check need to be shut down (after they have refunded the customers they have scammed)!!

Use the GOV.UK service instead

I had to obtain a DBS certificate for an acting job that involved working with children. In my ignorance, I ended up using Clearcheck. It is a complete rip-off. They charge an extortionate fee for providing the same service that you can obtain on GOV.UK for £21.50. They also ask for an ongoing payment of £8 per month if you want to share your certificate with anyone else. GOV.UK provides this service for no extra charge.The GOV.UK application takes about 20-30 minutes and you will receive your summary certificate online within minutes. The full certificate will then be mailed to you within a matter of days. Do yourself a favour and use this service instead.

SCAM VERY MISLEADING

SCAM VERY MISLEADINGTHEIR WEBPAGE ASKS YOU TO CHOOSE WHICH CERTIFICATE YOU WANT (Once you have already selected that you are an INDIVIDUAL) then doesn’t mention anything again once they have taken your money and your BASIC arrives.Have requested refund several times and have basically been told it is my fault! If you want A BASIC DBS- you can get it for £21.50 from DBS via .gov.uk you do NOT need to use Agent. I am sending email to Ombudsman today and hoping for some accountability and a full refund.

Do not go on this site

Do not go on this site. I struggled so much with a dbs check and they kept asking for more payment. Eventually got it cancelled but today £8 has been taken from my account and I have tried to cancel but with no success as it does not give you the option.
