The information I got was not worth the money at all. Although, you customer service is lovely, I am very disappointed and I will not use your service again.
I had no idea my husband and his cronies were career criminals.
There is no social media information again. Last time I only saw Twitter but now there's none.
It will only show me Twitter social networking and I know he has at least 3 Instagram accounts so where are those?
There are people,I know, have lived at same address for 30 years and you don't find them.
Surprised that a known person at same address for 40 years is "not found"
Difficult to manuever. Few details. Wants more money to expand info. Used Been Verfied. It's easier, more detailed and less$. Will only use the 1 mo. I signed for with Whiz, but wish I hadn't.
I haven't seen anything yet but it sounds really good!
My daughter is being stalked & we recently got a pfa. We are trying to locate the stalker & used People Whiz hoping to get more information. Not only didn't they provide anything we didn't already have, we actually found out more utilizing the internet for free on our own. I would highly recommend not using this site. Google had more information than these people.
Pay 27.00 with the understanding that you will get a full search, only to find out it is false. For more money they will tell you a little more information. You never get the answer you want. They mention criminal history, arrests they have only you need to upgrade and find that's false. Biggest rip off I've seen. You should get what they say and not make you pay extra for the rest of the info. DO NOT USE THE LOW LIFE COMPANY. FORGET ABOUT GETTING YOUR MONEY BACK
Some things are out of date, plus I paid for a premium report, Twice! Wanted to see something in social networks, but of course nothing.
Don't waste your money. I looked up myself and saw absolutely nothing that you could not find elsewhere at no cost. The data available certainly would not give one any insight or knowledge about me.
Have you been taking auto monthly payments from credit card? I was only intending to use PeopleWhiz on an as needed basis. I have gone months without using PW. If you haven't been notifying me about a yearly subscription, that's a slimy way to do business. I started to rate PW one star, then changed it to two. Now I can't erase the 2nd star.
I looked up my name and found a lot of wrong info. I only married one woman, Paula Pascuzzi, and she later divorced me.
But pW lists six other marriages to three women and three men(!), none of whom I have ever heard of. Also listed under "Associates" are 30 names, none of which I have ever heard of. I lost the respect I had for pW, before I began searching today.
Inaccurate info plus additional costs to get complete report (real bait and switch at initial signup) — cancelling my subscription. If you only want to pay for one month of sucky service (stop auto renew), be sure to Cancel your membership immediately.
This site reeks of a scam. First off it's expensive for what you get. Secondly, the information is inaccurate and lastly the site wants me to pay more for "Premium " service. So,I'm being asked to pay additional money for more inaccurate information?
Quite disappointed.
This is such a frustrating site. I have paid for premium services and because there are several Alia's profiles for each individual it will not refresh or update the accounts that I have already paid for more than once! This is very misleading and unethical to do.
This was very misleading on premium! It does NOT say $19.95 for 1 report! Ridiculous
You promoted that the premium would provide 2x's the information so I did it and nothing new was provided. This is basic stuff that you should definitely have on here but you have nothing. It seems like this is a fake sight just to steel money. I want a refund of the premium payment I made on my credit card..
You keep charging me saying you have more information, it takes 25 minutes to get thru all the pop ups and crap you throw out then you want to charge again for the exact information.
Well you didn't see that I have been married for 13 years and you missed that I was divorced so being that those types of information are very easy to get I'm not at all confident that you will be able to provide me with anything useful
Quick, Easy and accurate. Use it primarily to verify possible on-line dating information
On the report it shows that I live in some place in Hawaii. I have never been to Hawaii. The email is wrong and the people that own the email and the home address are Bonnie and__ KING! What is wrong with this information and why am I being ghosted by the Kings in Hawaii? Is this what I pay my membership for? Please advise.
Answer: If you need customer service, please contact us at [email protected] or call us at 833-276-9449. Our CS team will be able to process and address all concerns.
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: Hi there. Our customer service number is 833-276-9449. We have reps available 24/7 to serve you.
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.
