Not wanting a recurring bill
March 10, 2023

I thought I was buying a 1 month subscription. Now I see that I have to cancel it online as they set it up to do recurring billing at the highest monthly rate.
Hoping this is not a bs thing

While the site was pushing their data they indicated that the guy I was looking up had legal offences. After I paid for the report, none were found. I would not have paid for the report without their misleading information.

I am not sure
March 10, 2023

I am not sure. First of all you have me living in New York. I have never lived there. My name in several places is misspelled. Shouldn't you be more careful? The correct spelling is Katherine H. Ziegler and formerly Katherine H Mavrick there is no other spelling.

Self Check/ Missing key info
March 9, 2023

Your initial scan identified criminal records but initial report provided claims there are no criminal records... but if another payment is made($69)...that report would supply the information.

Very misleading and very expensive for a report generated by a computer search.
