Yes you did not say anything about having to pay more to get all the info. I paid to get my report and I'd like to get it. This shows me absolutely nothing. It's useless, so thanks for stealing my money I will not use you guys again and I'll let everyone know that it's a joke

Would Not Recommend
July 8, 2022

My personal report is at least 2 years out of date and includes information about someone else. I hope my coworkers and employers don't use this site- they will be getting a VERY inaccurate account of my life.
Just to see if maybe my report was a fluke, I looked up a person with an extensive criminal record, social media presence, and they are presently married. They have a clean criminal report on this site, none of their current social media platforms are shown (PeopleWhiz did manage locate this person's MySpace page- way to stay current!), and there is not a record of their marriage.
So, just to summarize- the facts and this site are in conflict. I would not recommend it to those familiar with reality.

It said there were criminal records for this person. However after I paid and got the final report, there were no criminal records. This was a false statement and I should be reimbursed.

The info you provided is nowhere near what you indicated you would. Also, it is incorrect as it has an incorrect address and telephone number. I would like a refund of my payment. I paid for what I thought was a comprehensive report and then you wanted even more $$ to get more information. I AM NOT HAPPHY.

I received notices informing me you've found something I should be aware of and to "refresh my file" yet I'm not finding a refresh tab anywhere… though I've sent an e-mail to Support, + resent today asking how to go about "refreshing" my file, so that I Can get this alleged updated info. Also I have discovered the info on others to be old/dated, and or missing completely when it came to arrest records that I know exist…If I don't get a response from Support, I shall unsubscribe from this company.

On first search, report had "Twitter (20)" and showed 3 other men by same name, yet, I wasn't able to see the other "20" that may've been connected.

This is a joke
July 8, 2022

This is a joke. I searched my ex husband. This said he has no prior divorces. I divorced him twice. No criminal background or sexual offences. That's a lie he went to prison for statutory rape. This said he has no driving record. That's a lie he has 2 DUI and license suspended.
