Not As Easy As It Looks
The first thing required is payment .. then the problems arise. I started off using my Drivers Licence, checked info about 3 times and the site kept telling me it was wrong. Out of necessity, I used my Birth Certificate as that was the only other document that qualified.
Then more problems arose due to my marriage certificate not being available etc.
Whole process took nearly 3 weeks and about 20 emails from the company saying they are working on it.
I have used other services in the past without any problem, so probably won't use this site again.

Human beings 1: Website 0
The website is clunky, especially if one of your photos of documents is sloppy (my bad.) I resubmitted my entire application several times and kept getting the same email notifying me of the original bad photo.
It was fixed quickly and courteously by whoever answered the phone. Please don't get rid of the human beings who can help when technology isn't performing well.

Voluntary Work Check
Was fast but required too much data. Too many questions. Given that I have used this service before, I shouldn't need to provide so much repeated information to complete my order

God format
Good website and easy to use. Took a lot longer than I expected as I had a previous police clearance with WorkPro which came in a bit faster. I thought having done a check before, that this time it was going to be quicker. It wasn't. Other than that not bad.

Time consuming
The application took a few goes to get it right. I found it frustrating and it would have been quicker for me to go to the post office to get it done.

It's thorough.
I used this for my first ever Police Check. They are thorough. They will ring to ask for more. Very easy to speak to.
More than likely I will use them again, when I am instructed to by my employer.

Would recommend
Easy process to do and apply for. Cost wise could be slightly cheaper and I did find it took longer than expected to do, had to wait a while before I received the clearance.

Time factor longer than expected
Waited several weeks before I received results. However, staff were very helpful and that was appreciated. I did receive a message that there would be a delay. I have had a police check a few years ago when I was teaching in Chine and that only took a week to complete.

Very slow service, was kept up to date with progress until I called to see why it was taking so long! Not the first time I have used the same service.

Im not a criminal so lets prove it......
It is fairly easy to upload the documentation required for identification purposes.
I find the reason for the clearance being a little slow unreasonable; ie someone on the database has a name similar to you. I dont believe this is possible given the identification requirements. However overall I am satisfied with this service.

Good Police Check Option
This process did take a lot longer than expected, but at least regular emails were received from Intercheck to advise that there was ongoing delays and the processing was continuing. Also there was not a lot of specific details provided regarding reasons for processing delays. And final Police Clearance gave little information regarding the check, it moreso detailed Intercheck clauses.
But all-in-all, I found Intercheck to be a simple, convenient, and economical for this type of service.

It took too long considering I have applied before.
There is definitely only one person with my details in Australia and all details were provided so I cannot see how it took the time it did for the response.

Slow process
I can't go pass commenting on the thoroughness of the criminal check itself, having never been in trouble with the authorities, my clearance took a few days but I was constantly updated. Also, I wasn't too comfortable having to post photocopies of my identify details, not having a scanner which works, but 2 and a bit weeks later I am still waiting for the hard copy to arrive in the mail. For real peace of mind, I would prefer to renew a clearance in person as an extra precautionary measure, regardless of online 'convenience'!

in the nick of time
despite having put in my request early so it would be easily ready to send to my new employer so I could start on the date required it only turned up on the afternoon of the last possible day to send it. I had emailed my new employer to explain that this document was missing in the morning citing the statement that the police were doing an extensive check of my claim. Given that I have no criminal record I thought this would have taken them about ten seconds on a national data base to confirm. I did not tell them about the first message you s...Read more
ent to me saying the police had found another person using my name and personal details as I think they would be a bit worried about that. I did not get any feedback about whether they apprehended the person who had stolen my identity but I can assure you I looked all over the house for him just in case. Still by holding back to late afternoon I was able to send all the documents at once and on time but it was all a bit anxiety provoking and had a bit of a KGB atmosphere about it. I would say that you were very clear that theses type of shenanigans by the police did happen regularly and that they were usually just time wasting exercises that turned up nothing as was indicated in your statement that this happens regularly so do not be concerned. however I do realize this process was out of your control and you were very clear and courteous so I continued to practice a mindful acceptance of the situation to reduce my fear and anxiety. kind regards :]Similar opinion?

I will request for Product review to take it down, no problems.
Sorry to hear that Terry. The company should except this check, as we are an accredited Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission agency. We have been accredited for the last 7 years and because of this our checks are widely accepted. It seems that the business you provided this check to have outdated policies around accepting clearances. In addition if they are saying that they only accept SAPOL type of clearances, they should have made it more clear to you in the beginning.
I requested an online and a paper copy that was sent to my address. With the latter it is different but contains all the same information as previous police checks. I wouldn't know how to take down a review.
