Updated review

So far I feel like I am receiving the old bait and switch routine. With the initial subscription fee of $27.99 I did not get a satisfactory report and was prompted to spend more money. I have already unsubscribed.

Missing info
April 1, 2023

Divorce records can be expunged but are sometimes not listed even if not expunged. I falsely accused someone and then searched myself. My own divorce records were not listed either. Cancelled service.
