Not good
May 12, 2022

It said I had no divorce and no felony. I have both. Felony was 35 years ago.
The part that was bad was another woman with my name had some really bad things. It popped up with my name saying don't let let Mari Tolbert near your kids. It didn't show which Mari.
I want you to reimburse my fee and get me off your list. I sure would hate to have that pop up under my name.

You sure don't get much for the basic $27.99/month membership. People Whiz hasn't uncovered anything on anyone I didn't already know or could have found out on my own just by looking people up on Google or Facebook. Honestly feel like I've been ripped off!

Misleading capture prior to purchasing the report stating criminal information. Once purchased there were no criminal re it's. I feel this was very deceiving.

I would of rated this 5 stars but, due to the fact it charged me $1.00 and said it's a 5 day trial and then barely gives any information I feel it was a waste of my time and money.
