You sucker me into a 1 month trial and then don't tell me $#*! about the person. Like a birth date? Really that's all? Then you charge me $20 more and I don't even know what I'm going to get for that. This feels like the biggest waste of money I've ever spent in my life so far.

Bogus report
February 12, 2022

You first gave a price for a 1-month subscription. When the report was finished, you wanted more money for the full report. The full report had no more information. It was worthless.

I would like my money refunded.

Got a report with incredibly limited information... have used another service since and the report was much more in depth and accurate for the current time... Overall unsatisfied, please remove me from any further email or notifications and any future charges.
Thank you in advance for your help

You have to pay extra, "Premium" to get more information. This is bogus.

Very mixed info on several Michael Miller's. Some info correct but other not at all. Not worth the money you charge. This better have been only a $1.00 charge. Very disappointed.

Liars!
February 12, 2022

I was curious what it said about me. I can tell you I have traffic tickets on my record. The first thing that pops up to try and get me to purchase their monthly subscription is "Multiple Criminal Records Found". This site is NOT accurate until you pay for it. It entices and lies until you pay. I, like most people, will pay if there's something that looks slightly interesting. Don't believe everything you read on these sites. It also has that I lived in Montana. Wrong! Like so many other companies, they want your money. This site isn't worth it.

Before I paid, your prompt said you had located several criminal reports on this subject. After I paid, you produced nothing. Total rip off.

E The first person I googled was myself
February 12, 2022

E The first person I googled was myself. You did not have my marriage or my divorce or 17 addresses or relatives. You don't have my criminal history correct. You're missing three email addresses of recent ones. And you're missing just as many phone numbers and recent ones! You're not reliable if you don't have my information correct I have no confidence that you have anyone's correct and I'm gonna ask for a refund thank you. Joy Tuscherer
