Pros: website is easy to use
March 4, 2022

Pros: website is easy to use. Cons: the $1 5 day trial doesnt give full access to all reports. The basic info u do get, both current and former phonenumbers, email addresses, and social media are at minimum 5 years out of date or not listed at all. Wasted $1.

A lot of info missing, even with the premium reports. But it's better than other search sites I've tried, hence 3 stars.

I saw an initial report showing I lived in Falls River, Ma. That is100% incorrect. This report appears to have much of the same info as a credit report.

You must not even look for current information. My parents' house, 6616 Kentucky Ave. So., was sold 10+ years ago & Mark hasn't lived in it since around 2006! Phone # *******556 was our grandparents' & was closed out when our grandfather moved in about 1990! Phone # *******935 was changed in the 1990's to *******179, which was closed out about 15 years ago! I know he had to go to court on charges that I bailed him out of jail on & you show nothing. YOUR SERVICE IS NO GOOD TO ME! JUST CLOSE MY ACCOUNT!

Misrepresented what information would be provided with the search and attempt to get more money for the information that should have been provided.
Immediately refund and cancel my 6 month subscription.

The report included minimal information. Did not pick up any criminal reports I already know about or addresses I know about. Waste of money. Don't pay.
