When I click on the report it doesn't open it just comes to this your opinion counts

WAY more useless data than needed or required. Data on superfluous folk and UN-related and I have paid for this report twice in past two yrs.
Not much info found more on different site that I paid for.
I do not wish to continue with this subscription, I did not realize it would be an on going billing cycle. Please cancel.
Thanks Richard Oder.
The ad said it was free and it's not, I had to pay. In addition from the searches I have done so far, I have been able to find more on my own searching the internet than you are providing. The first profile had information about a few different people in 1 profile.
Hoping this is accurate, which other reports have not been.
I took the $1.00 for one month trial. The information I received was very general. Most of it could be found by simply googling the name. Then another prompt came up telling me about additional, more important and descriptive information, other than name and address and relatives that People Whiz apparently found on the person I asked your company to research. Therefore, I was intrigued with the Premium Package for a month. When the Premium Package was presented, there was a list of people with the same first and last names but all different middle names and middle initials. There was absolutely no further information available on the PERSON I REQUESTED WITH THE MIDDLE INITIAL THEY USE!
Needless to say, I am totally dissatisfied and would like a full refund. Please call me ASAP at
*******315 or *******759. Thank you!
Stupidly, I trusted what I was being told and I went for it! But the company's research did not follow the middle initial I had provided for the person. I felt as if I was reading a phone book with all different middle names.
I truly believe I was scammed and would like my entire amount spent today credited to my credit card ASAP! You "seem" to have back up of many reliable magazines, and companies.
I cannot truly rate my experience thus far, I have not received the report!
I received the report but the information received was not as much or as informing as they led me to believe
I thought I would have access to all of the things like, social media, phone numbers, more updated and recent information but it was outdated and not that helpful. I'm sorry
For $27 I would think you would get some pictures of this person so you know that it's them. All the information is very vague I expected more. And against my better judgment I did the premium I haven't looked at it yet but I'll let you know.
OK I got the premium report it was full of crap that no one is looking for in a background check. I feel that I have been deceived in what you claim and what you deliver. I would like my money back but doubt that happens so i guess spreading the word of the quality service you DON'T deliver appears to be my only recourse unless of course my money was to find its way back on my card
I could have gotten this from a telephone book. Nothing here... this is a ripoff! You have to keep upgrading, i e., spend more to get an astrological sign!
These records are too old, nothing up to date, too hard to navigate. Didn't show marriage records, or anything of interest
Good good good good good good good good good good
Absolutely useless! Looked up myself, didn't have any reliable info other than address. Not my professional licenses, record of my manage. Etc for ANYTHING! Request refund.
The site kept rejecting my credit cards. I soon got fraud alerts from the credit card companies I had entered. As this developed I began to fear PeopleWhiz was a fraud and a means of collecting credit card numbers. I immediately declined the charges via the fraud alerts. One account went through. I not only declined but called each of the rejected (by PeopleWhiz) cards. One canceled my card and will send a new one and the other assured me a charge from PeopleWhiz had not gone through on the card. This was a very scary experience and caused me a great deal of time to resolve.
Notice address on person l am checking is not exactly right
I paid with the intention of getting a full report. Not the case!
Now you want to charge more to get the actual info I am seeking.
I have been going around circles for nearly one hour with your not accepting my numerous responses to Change my I'd!

Answer: Searching took a very long time, and information provided was incomplete. I know that the person I was searching has been arrested for prostitutuion numerous times, yet those did not show on the arrest record. Most arrest records gave no reason for the arrest and no date of arrest. I cancelled membership immediately and have requested a refund, but doubt I will receive one. DON'T USE
Answer: Hi there. Our customer service number is 833-276-9449. We have reps available 24/7 to serve you.
Answer: I had the same issue today. Customer service said the only way I could access the details of my 'multiple criminal charges' was if I paid a subscription fee. Hmmm, who 'd the real criminal here? For the record, I've never been arrested. Like, ever.
