The information I needed was the phone # which was NOT provided! Why would there be no phone #, and why should anyone pay your site when one is not provided?!

I like this website
February 10, 2022

I like this website. This website is easy to use. This website gives current correct information like for example the current correct telephone number for the person that I am wanting to know information about.

I pd for all my reports and records on my file. When I went into it, it wanted again more money. Have gotten no information on myself or my chosen relatives. Another website that has taken advantage of people. I wanted to clear up my records what every has appeared on it. Which shouldn't be much. I'm a good citizen. Thank You. I would greatly appreciate an email with what I've pd for. God bless Cherie Racioppo

Tried to do a search to get information for myself and the only information that it pulled was information that I selected regarding relatives and an old cell phone # and wanted more money for a premium report. Super frustrating!

This shows nothing I don't already know! What's the point? Unless I probably pay a fortune. I ran a check on myself. It says no marriage records. I was married 2 times. Says no divorce records! Doesn't show anything it takes 20 minutes it says its downloading. Not sure what the point of this is. Other then to try and suck you in to pay the $90 up front to get it?

Very little information that I already knew. I was looking for marriage, divorce & death certificates which should be in file and none came up. It appears this site doesn't have the access that is claimed

Gimmick?

Updated review

Interesting. Not as much info as I was led to believe…

UPDATE: I canceled my $1.00 subscription prior to deadline, but then yesterday PW deducted $29.99 from my checking! When I called & spoke w/Alex, she said "Yes. Ur subscription was canceled at that time, but you have to call back to request a refund!" Makes no sense. Don't fall for the $1.00 reports. They'll get you even after you've canceled! She said I'll get my refund in 3-5 business days, so I have to wait to get my refund even though it was their mistake! If it sounds too good to be true, it more than likely is…

I wanted to change the plan I selected however I was unable to detect a way to do that. Starting over just seemed too tedious.
