I called several times Friday 7/15 between 5:15 and 5:35 and was hung up on by a lady two times because i asked her to speak louder. When i reset my Password and requested a new report, i was prompted to pay a fee. I have paid a monthly fee for years and rarely use the service. Please have someone em with help or call me at *******062 during business hours. Thank you

Too hard to cancel a membership
August 14, 2022

Too hard to cancel a membership. Frustrating watching my money go without being able to do anything about it because you're too damn stupid to make an easy to cancel button like Amazon or other major sites have. Please fix it because I can't afford it anymore.

Old news
August 14, 2022

The information was outdated by YEARS. Strangers were listed as family members and one of his adult children was omitted. His address was 2 yrs old. And the items promised were only available if an upgrade doubling the price was purchased. Bad news.

My review
August 14, 2022

Both people have been married, Kristen twice. You had her with relatives that are not related to her and she has been divorced. Also you had her living in New York at one time. I was married to her for 24 years so I know where she had been. He has been arrested a couple of times in the past 18 months.

Fine so far except I know I do not have a criminal record - for a FACT.
You have no marriage details or divorce details and apparently I have no other relatives other than my husband! I have been married to me husband for 48 years and the worst I have ever had was a parking ticket. I think you all need to check your reports out better than mine was.

It should be upfront about extra charge to get report. What is shown I knew so I just wasted money to find that out

I did a search on myself and it showed nothing. The only thing that was accurate on it was that there was no death record because I'm alive everything else was false. It's a scam and I'm out my money

You pay 30.00 to receive no valuable information that you need to pay an additional 20.00 for?
Silly waste of money
