CHave you ever received an invoice from your electrician, only to find that he has charged you a hefty 17.5% VAT? Or are you worried that a plumbers bill scrawled in pencil on the back of a cigarette packet might not be genuine?
If so, then this could put your mind at ease...
All companies who are registered to charge VAT are required by law to supply their VAT registration code on all bills, receipts and invoices. CodeCheck can test these 9-digit codes to see whether or not they are valid.
If you ever receive a bill with an invalid code then you will instantly know that they are not registered to charge VAT, and they they are breaking the law by trying to make you pay VAT for their services.
To check a VAT code, just enter the 9-digit number into the box and a message will instantly appear telling you whether or not it is valid. You can now be sure that nobody will ever try to make you pay VAT when they are not genuinely registered to do so!

DCodeCheck is shareware. The unregistered version is fully functional, but there is a slightly annoying delay between entering a number and the program telling you whether or not it is valid.

BThis could be essential for anybody who runs a small business, and needs to take credit card orders over the telephone.
When somebody gives you their credit card number, you can enter it into CodeCheck to instantly find out whether or not that number is valid.
This could be extremely useful for protecting yourself against fraud, and also gives you a quick & easy way of checking that the customer has read their card number out properly.
Please remember though that CodeCheck only checks the validity of the number; it doesn't test whether or not that account actually exists or whether their credit limit is big enough to cover the transaction. You will still need to use a credit referral agency to do that!
