Not up to date by any means, and you have not given me any information that I did not already know. This has been a $ 30 rip off. If this is the only information you provide to your customers, you should be reported to the BBB.

You represented that all I had to pay was one price to get all the information. I had all the initial info you gave. You led us to think I would get ALL for one price. You were misleading. I won't use you, I want my card removed. I will pay for what you got but won't be used. I already know the initial information. You keep the rest.

I was married to Richard Ervin Jackson. Your report is incorrect an I want my money back. Richard Jackson spent 3or 4 years in an Iowa prison. He was married 5 times and has 4 children. He was arrested for insurance fraud. He had numerous businesses in Wisconsin and Iowa. He lived for many years in Arizona and southern WI. He died in Green Bay. I paid almost $30 for nothing.
