I've used a different app and it provided more info in my searches for the same price.
Criminal records and relatives I've previously searched for do not come up with this app.
Disappointed!

You said people were putting negative information out about me, and I have to pay you to find out what that is... I should be able to cancel this contract ASAP after I review this report about these invasions of my privacy by others.

You should tell people that there is going to be a charge read from the beginning. It also takes a while of time to get to the point where I am now.

Vry poor, almost a scam.
September 27, 2022

I paid for a report and it was very incomplete. I only signed up because I had received an email stating that there might have been criminal items added to my record which there weren't. The records searched were very incomplete. They did not show my marriages or divorce, my Federal Aviation licenses nor my gun permit.
I did not receive a complete report because there was no mention of having to pay an addition fee until I had already remitted payment.
I wish to cancel this account and hope you will send me a refund for fees paid for services not provided

I want to cancel now! It was misleading until you got my card number. Then you talk about more money for a complete report. Cancel I am calling my card company to no stop payment. Unless you let me know it's canceled.

Very misleading, paid for a month and then wanted me to pay more for another report that was said to be included. I'll be asking for a refund and reporting to the BBB.
