You haven't told me anything that I am unaware of. Also the subject I'm searching has been divorced and remarried and was also widowed. There was no indication of where they were born and that they lived out of state and outside NYC.

I paid the fee you asked for to give me a report. Now you ask me for more money. This feels like a bait and switch. I got zilch information from you.

Not what I hoped….
March 23, 2022

The information was dated, & I know it was dated because I looked up myself, & someone I have known for almost three years & the info provided was less accurate than what I'm able to get for free using Opera search engine's suggestions.
Also, at NO time while I was registering or during my subsequent payment did I notice that in order to receive the more sensitive information I would have to PURCHASE ANOTHER "MORE DETAILED" Report FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL THAT I SEARCH!' EACH "ADDITIONAL" Report is $30!?! EXTRA!? MORE!?!
I am extremely disappointed in this service, if my families' safety was depending on this service and the ability to find that person based on the current contact information or worse was reliant upon the thoroughness and complete accurate information I had believed I was signing up for and paying for…My family might certainly be in harms way! Because of those two reasons alone, I would never recommend this service to anyone I know, not the other moms I know, not my associates that may be looking to hire, not friends that may be searching for a trusted babysitter, and not my a neighbor looking to find trusted domestic help! In other words, I would not recommend your service to anyone who is looking into whether or not they should welcome someone new into their home, lives, or business based on the information that your service is willing to reveal based on the primary information that's disclosed, and I would hesitate to believe that the information that is considered to be of PREMIUM VALUE (which is the information that is most often times needed and therefore sought) would be any more contact current so other than costing an additional $30 and THEN & ONLY THEN being made aware of any potential dangers that person may present, you are only able to try and keep this person out of your life but God forbid something else happen because you still would not be able to contact or alert whatever authority may need to be notified where they might be able to locate that person!

No happy it's been a long time waiting to get to this point. I called the police in milwaukee. They went to the last address and found that she had moved one block away. They talked to belinda at the new address. But the family wants to here from her.

Deceptive about the amount of info you get! Didn't get complete information as insinuated. Was surprised to have paid, only to find minimal infoRm action and the option to pay more money.
