Service book & your records
Your own paperwork, kept with your car's records and ready to show a buyer.
What is the free service book?
A free online service book for your car. Enter the registration and we set it up with the car's details and its MOT history. Then add the services you have paperwork for (receipts, invoices, or photos of the stamped book) and share the whole thing with a buyer.
Start your free service book. You'll sign in with your email address; there's nothing to pay.
How do I add a service record?
You can add records to a free service book or to a report you've bought.
- Open your service book and choose Add records, or open your report and choose Add your receipts.
- Upload photos or PDFs of your receipts and invoices. You can choose several at once, and photos from an iPhone are fine.
- We read each document and show you what we found: the date, mileage, garage and work done. A page of a stamped service book can hold several services, and we pick them all out.
- Check the details, correct anything we misread, and save.
No paperwork? You can type a record in yourself instead.
Files can be PDF, JPG or PNG (iPhone HEIC photos are converted for you), up to 4.5 MB each.
Why is my document stuck on 'Reading' or not read?
Reading a document usually takes 10 to 30 seconds, and a long PDF can take longer, so keep the page open until it finishes.
If we can't read it, the photo is usually blurred, dark or cut off. Take it again flat, in good light, with the whole page in shot, or type the details in yourself. Documents that aren't service records, such as parking or fuel receipts, are skipped.
Who can see the documents I upload?
Only you. Your documents are private: nobody else can open them, apart from our support team if you ask us for help.
Your report or service book shows the record we read from the document (the date, mileage, garage and work done), never the document itself. We don't copy your name, address or phone number from it.
Why does one of my records have a warning?
We compare the mileage on each record with the car's MOT readings. If a mileage doesn't fit between the readings either side of it, we flag the record.
The record still appears. Most flags are a mistyped or misread digit, which you can fix by editing the record.
How do I edit or remove a record?
Open your service book or report, go to Add records, and find the record under Already on this report. You can edit or remove any record you added.
What does 'Show these services to future buyers' do?
When you add a record with a document, you can choose to let that service appear on other people's checks of the same car, so a future buyer sees the servicing you paid for. It's optional, and nothing is shared unless you tick it.
Shared records are anonymous: your name, address, invoice number and the document itself are never shown. We only share a record whose mileage fits the car's MOT history, it appears after a waiting period, and you can remove it at any time.
