False info about marriage
How would I be married in 1991 if I was born in 1993. Common sense.
Also false divorce info
I can not divorce someone if I was never married

Personal Search Review
September 2, 2022

I looked up data on myself to see what might be out there. Most things were correct, but some information was lacking, like personal professional licenses and credentials. Other things were incorrect, like listing me as having lived in Florida at two addresses; I've never resides in that state. I'm not sure how to correct such info, Overall this site gives a general profile, but don't expect everything to be thorough or accurate.

This website is a ripoff
October 2, 2022

This website is a ripoff - no pertinent information was provided. Then you try to scam me for more money to find out nothing of importance. You should be ashamed of yourselves!

The report didn't have that I was married nor that I was divorced. It had no record of my lifetime teacher's license. It has my address as my sister's. It listed my current address as where I once lived. It had a Portage, IN address where I never lived. There were a couple of relatives I didn't recognize. The report did not include my other son's name. I am not pleased with the results; therefore, I shall be canceling this membership before the month runs out on October 2nd!

Updated review

All I got was what I already knew. The address and phone number. Then they try to make you pay more money to get any further info... so it was a waste of time and money. Fortunately I only paid the $1.00 for days. Better not be charged anymore. Only used it for 1 person and learned nothing I didnt already know. Which is just what's in the phone book
