Thanks for visiting my profile! I am Ian Carrott owner of Checkaco (The Credit Check Co)Why I founded Checkaco?We hear all too often, from our friends and the news, about everyday people who lose large sums of money when a company goes out of business.When a Wiltshire based Hot Air Ballooning firm went under in 2013 taking up to £1m worth of prepayments, we were left with no other choice than to go out there and create a place where members of the public can assess a company before handing over their hard earned money.You don't have to be a big business or spend lots of money to check out a company, you just need to sign up and type in the name of the business.
