Cost of report should be obvious up front, Basic report incomplete, automatic renewal set up without my permission,
It was ok but I think there should be a little more information without having to pay for the premium deal. But, I admit if I would have had the money I would have bumped up to the premium.
This company advertises that your free report will contain all the information of the premium service.
Then you have to either subscribe for a monthly service etc, then they offer the report for $1.00 then
You find out your only get a minimum report of the bare essentials. Very deceptive way to get your money. That is why I cancelled it!
There is a lot of incorrect information on your reports. I wasted a dollar. Back to square one.

I saw in an email that PeopleWhiz offered a trial price. Going to the website I signed up but so NO trial offer option. I took the least expensive option, and entered the name of someone I know very well. The information collected and posted was incorrect and mixed up several people of similar names. I called PeopleWhiz and asked for a refund after being signed for less than 10 minutes. I was told, after a while, that I could receive only a partial refund. I requested a full refund, but was denied, then the call disconnected. I called back and spoke to a different rep and was told the same refund as explained by the first rep was allowed. I was also told that the trial offer was offered to only random people.
Did not show either of my two marriages along with other misstatements. Useless. Would like a refund.
My brother is deceased. Report says otherwise. He died on Dec 9,2020. Other wrong information and nothing sensitive.
Asking for a refund.
The information about myself was generic and useless.
Bs bs bs bs bs bs bs bs bd this site is a awful bs bs
Easy, didn't take long to received or find information but it lacked information I had received on other sites.
It seemed to be fine at first but the information on the person is way out of date, plus there were like five or six different people with similar names in the report that have no relation at all. This could seriously cause a person harm.
The only information I received was four former addresses. That information was not helpful.
Unless you want your screen taken over by their ads constantly popping up do not even think about going near their site.
I did not give my son and his friends to check on your website for a fellow friend that was arrested on felony charges I wish that you guys would learn to check identification first before going ahead with these I would deeply appreciate a refund as my bank notified me of the charges I was not too happy with my son and your website for accepting these charges thank you very much
All was good it is probably me and my inability to navigate my phone.
This site does not have current or long term correct information. Another site gave much more information that was correct. I believe this site is a scam. They also tried to collect payment 3 times from my account. Lucky for me I didn't have enough on the card for them to get 3X from me.
With all the information to capture, just seem you would have better information,
I was looking into someone I knew and found no new info at all. I already knew more than was provided. People with similar names came up that clearly were not the correct people. If I wanted to know anything it would be an additional charge and if I wanted details on that it would have been an additional charge. I could have hired an investigator for what would have cost me less in the long run. SCAM, WASTE OF MONEY, RUN DON'T WALK!

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: 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.
