Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: September 13, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to Motorfax, a trading name of Ann Trading LTD ("we," "us," or "our"). These Terms and Conditions govern your use of our website at https://motorfax.co.uk/ and all services provided by us, including vehicle inspection reports. By accessing our website, using our services, or making a purchase, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use our services.

2. Our Service

Motorfax provides vehicle inspection reports based on information compiled from various third-party data providers. The report is a summary of publicly available and proprietary data sources, presented for your convenience.

2.1. Accuracy of Information

While we strive to provide the most accurate and up-to-date information, the data in our reports is sourced from third parties. We do not independently verify the accuracy or completeness of all information. Therefore, we do not guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or currency of the data provided and are not liable for any errors or omissions. The report should be used as a guide and is not a substitute for a professional vehicle inspection.

2.2. No Warranty

Our reports and services are provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. We make no warranties, whether express or implied, regarding the reports, including, but not limited to, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

2.3. User Responsibility

You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide to generate a report, including the vehicle registration number or VIN. It is your responsibility to verify all information in the report and to conduct your own due diligence before making any decisions, including vehicle purchases.

3. Payments

All payments for our services are processed securely through Tyl by NatWest, a third-party payment gateway. We do not handle, store, or have access to your sensitive credit card information. By submitting your payment details, you consent to your data being handled in accordance with the terms and conditions and privacy policy of Tyl by NatWest.

4. Refund Procedure

Given the digital nature of our service, our refund policy is designed to be fair and transparent. We will issue a full refund in the following circumstances only:

4.1. Eligible for Refund

  • Report Not Delivered: If you successfully complete your payment but do not receive your vehicle inspection report via email within a reasonable time frame (typically within 15 minutes). We will first attempt to resend the report; if the issue cannot be resolved, a full refund will be issued.
  • Report Does Not Match Vehicle: If the report you receive is for a vehicle other than the one you entered and paid for.
  • No Data Found: In the event that our data providers are unable to find any information for the vehicle registration number or VIN you submitted.

4.2. How to Request a Refund

To request a refund, you must contact us at inquiry@motorfax.co.uk with the following information:

  • Your full name and email address used for the purchase.
  • The vehicle registration number or VIN submitted.
  • The date and time of the transaction.
  • A detailed explanation of the reason for your refund request.

We will review your request and respond within a reasonable timeframe. Refunds will be processed back to the original payment method. Please allow a few business days for the refund to appear in your account, as processing times vary by bank and card issuer.
