Very disappointed, your ad makes a customer think they are going to get information but there is nothing that I didn't already know & the info is not up to date.

Not what I thought
November 14, 2023

I did not understand that you had to pay an additional 1995 for every single report that you got. It looked as though you could pay 1995 and it upgraded your account to premium so all of the reports you got would be more extensive.

Read good things about PeopleWhiz
November 12, 2023

I thought I was signing up for a $1.00 5 day trial.
Turns out I had to give my credit card number, which should have been a tell. I, unknowingly was signing up for a month of service after the five day trial period. Took me a little bit of time but I canceled my PayPal payment as PeopleWhiz was not as accurate as truth finder, which I already have.
