I've had a "People Whiz" account for over 2 years but haven't used it for years because my account is locked. I don't know why though because $27.00 is debited from my checking account each & every month. That amount should be enough to access your most "Premium" service. Right? Anyway, out of curiosity, I searched myself using your service when it appeared as a "pop up" ad on my phone. I entered my info to search myself & also agreed to pay for a premium search with PayPal. I was informed that I didn't have to pay extra because it was already 'Premium". Ok. So, I tried over & over to get the DEEP Report & NOPE. It just goes back saying I have to pay more. I cannot get the results unless I pay more & I can't pay more because I've already paid more. There are no other options. Also, even though the search positively identified me by my name, age, Town, etc. The rest of the limited info was ridiculously false.

There isn't alot of information shared and it makes it feel like there will be. You have to upgrade to premium. At this point I am cutting my losses. Do not purchase

I have not seen anything so far. Just that you are charging me for a report that I do not know if it truly is the person I am looking into

Nothing on here... you have to pay extra to find anything out... and if its like what I just paid for, it will be nothing too! There are free sites that give you more info. I'm asking for a refund!

As the report was being generated, a dialogue box stated Julie had a criminal record, when the report posted, no such record was listed. Why?
