When researching ur site I figured it would be well worth the cost that u charge but after signing up for a $1 - 5 day trial and running a few background checks on my family and I, I was rather unsatisfied with what all info ur site came up with on any of us or better yet the lack of information u were able to locate on any of us. Plus what little u were able to find and apply to each report that was actually correct information or better yet it wasn't even the correct person I was searching for info. If I had paid full price for an actual subscription to ur site I really would have been highly upset with what u say u can and will locate and then what u were able to provide to me on these searches. U really should either upgrade ur resources and do better scans to get the information u say u will provide. And make sure it is correct before sending these reports out. I'm just sorry I wasted my time with this site. U actually would get no stars from me at all.

A lot of the information is very old and incorrect.
Relatives listed are actually spouses relatives and none of my own. Not even my parents names. So if I'm using this to back ground check someone I. Can't really rely on information.

This provided no additional info than from basic google search and gave inaccurate information in two places. Person was married and was divorced. This shows no to both of those. Unreliable and a waste of money!

Your search is the worst I've seen so far. I know he drives a Tractor and tailer, so it should he has a FTL. I know he was pulled over for bad log book. So that should have been in there too. I was told he was married 5 times. Not in there Not sure what I paid for but was not it.

Not happy
September 12, 2022

Grossly incorrect information. I have never heard of the person you listed as my husband. I've lived in the same house nearly 50 years. You show numerous addresses to be mine, some of which are relatives; some I have no knowledge of.

Your service is ridiculous
September 12, 2022

Your service is ridiculous. I pay a monthly fee of 27.99 and for this report I paid an additional 29.00, or something like that. For my money I got nothing in return. Your reports are not informative and difficult to maneuver. I will call my card holder and and tell them that this is a scam. Shame on you.

Very incomplete
September 12, 2022

Very incomplete. Other reports show addresses going back 25 years or more. Numerous past phone numbers but none listed. All relationships listed except family members don't exist.

Missing data available in other reports, overall info ~30% erroneous, thin file.

I do not like the fact that you have to pay extra to get more information. One fee should be for a complete report. Will not renew my subscription.
