I'm new about a month with DeleteMe and so far I am pleased. They give me emails of status updates. I love their idea in that we are paying them to delete us as to protect our privacy that which is what the Federal Trade Commission's Consumer Protection Division allows us, our privacy to protect us. We know if DeleteMe continues doing a great job saying what they are doing, they are going to be superstars. Because they protect families from stalkers so we are so grateful to you DeleteMe! Please keep up the great work.

I'm not seeing any changes on return from my $100 investment on this account. I still daily receive spam phone calls at 8-10am that wake me up sometimes and hang up when I talk to them. Scams, frauds and crooks are still not even at bay. I hear from delete me on this my second month and all I see are it saying my information has been sent for removal from 48 companies that I have never heard from. I'm going to contact the better business bureau and the theee large credit companies
Hi There,
When it comes to removing personal information from people search and data broker sites we are best-in-class. Unfortunately, we cannot delete data from telemarketers.
However, this article from the Federal Trade Commission may be helpful in removing your existing data from telemarketing lists:

I have been paying DeleteMe for 4 straight years and so far, I am seeing my name in so many sites like truth finder, ancestry.com. Etc. When you ask DeleteMe, they will just reason out that they have no control over those sites and that I have to be the one to request for the removal of my info. I don't know what I am paying them for.
First, let me say that you're not alone in your frustration. People are finding their info spread across the internet more and more these days, which is why they're turning to our service to help them remove it. However, we try to be very clear up front that our service focuses on data brokers and people search sites, but we are bound by laws in place, and is not a 1-stop-solution to all online privacy issues
For example on our "how we work" page we provide a specific list of sites we remove from. We are constantly working to add more, but it's not easy -- many of these sites are adversarial, they change their policies frequently, and do everything they can to avoid removals under the letter of the law. The landscape changes on a daily basis.
Certain data brokers are refusing to respond to all third-party agent removal submissions as we have communicated. We will continue to advocate on your behalf to combat this non-compliance to honor our opt-outs and remove your information from these data brokers. If we are not able to remove on your behalf, and we will do our best to try, we want to ensure that you have the collateral and walkthroughs needed to remove yourself in places in which we can't.
We understand taking action is essential to reducing your personal information on the internet. While DeleteMe is hard at work in regaining compliance using the means at our disposal, we have provided steps that you can take to effect removal of your information on these sites.
Folks are responsive, intelligent, and know their business. They really care about privacy!
Thank you for the glowing review! We are grateful for your kind words and are pleased to know that our product/service has exceeded your expectations!

Answer: Hi There, Thanks for your great question! As our privacy policy states [https://joindeleteme.com/legal/], we won't track, store, or sell your personal information to anyone, under any circumstance. Simply put, your privacy is our business. Getting it right is how our company succeeds. Without a reputation for trustworthiness, we couldn't stay in business for long. We've been in business since 2011, and we've processed over 10 Million consumer opt-outs. That said, your information is likely to reappear over time. Many activities that we engage in generate data that can then be republished. Some examples of the activities include: Registering to vote Purchasing real estate/vehicles Signing up for Utilities [Phone/cable/gas] And many more (you can find the full list at https://joindeleteme.com/help/kb/how-does-my-personal-info-get-online/)
Answer: Hi There, Unfortunately no. Social media sites like Facebook, Instagram, other accounts that you have created are not public information and are user created. This means that the creator has agreed to the terms of these sites in creating this data and therefore as a third party, we cannot remove that data.
Answer: Unfortunately, that type of content is not something that the DeleteMe service can remove from the web. DeleteMe removes personal contact information from people search sites only. You will need to contact the site in question directly for removal, they may request proof of expungement to remove the case listing.
Answer: Hi Brian, Thank you for inquiring about our DeleteMe service. Essentially, our service is set to remove personal information - names, age, addresses, DOB, phone numbers etc. from a large list of people search and data broker websites. These sites pull information from public record sources - renewing a license, buying property, getting married / divorced, etc. Since this information is taken from public records in the US, we are able to opt out of it from these specific sites https://joindeleteme.com/sites-we-remove-from/. Sites like this are not public information and are often user created. This means that the creator has agreed to the terms of these sites in creating this data and therefore as a third party, we cannot remove that data.
