Very limited information unless you upgrade. Seems like a bait and hook situation.

Information is inaccurate. Reports are missing a ton of information. The fee is way to high for not providing much information at all and false information to top it off.

The only info you get for your $ is an address. You have to pay additional $ for the rest of the information. It's crappy that they take your $ and then ask for more.

Not much information for the amount charged. I could have found the information returned in a very short search on my own. Very disappointing.

I would give this app negative stars if I could... I just wasted $50+ on this crap app! Everything I saw here I could find on my own just by using Google, and it's free! I want my money back!

Expensive and Inaccurate
April 13, 2022
Updated review

I was disappointed in the results. I have received much more accurate results from other websites in the past. It was expensive for the limited amount of correct information. I won't use you again and I won't refer anyone to your company. I discontinued my subscription within minutes because everything was so wrong, including my address etc.
