Trying to cancel, I realize I've been tricked into further payment. I just want OUT. I'm canceling card so there'll be no more money collected anyway. But I want it canceled now.

Same as all the others
October 5, 2022

Same information as on all the other look up peoples sites. And then they all want to nickel and dime you to get as much money as they possibly can. Then they make sure to keep it going with automatic payments.

It is ridiculous that you charge a monthly fee, then expect users to pay an extra 20 bucks to get the full report.

You say nothing during sign up that you will have to pay additional monies for the information you advertise to be on your reports. Thank you, but I am not impressed with your product because I feel that is a definite bate and switch.
