You make the claim to expose all this information but your search shows much less than any of the other sites who claim to be able to provide certain information. I mean you didn't even find the Facebook or Instagram accounts that I know this person has.
No Wonder You Don't Offer A With A Money BACK guarantee. If you did I would certainly ask for it. $27 and you provide way less than peoplefinder.Com

This was marketed online as a FREE background check.
After spending 15 minutes going through the process - there's a fee.
So frustrating...

Updated review

You send me messages regarding updates about a particular person, then charge me AGAIN to get those updates, in addition to the monthly subscription fee. That's just NOT RIGHT!

Date of experience: December 1, 2021

I pay for a report one time, then when there are ‘updates' for the same person, I get charged again. That is just wrong!

Inaccurate Information
December 31, 2021

I know the person I ran the background check on has been arrested and convicted and served time at least once for a pretty substantial charge. I know he's divorced. I know he has employment records. None of that is in this report. I even paid extra for the premium report. I just wanted to know if there were other arrest records that I didn't know about and you don't show them at all.
