Updated review

The advertisement said the person had a criminal record, but the report showed none. I know they have a facebook account, but does not show any account. Then you want me to pay an additional $19. Xx for additional information. What a rip off.
I want my money back!
AND CANCEL MAY ACCOUNT!

Difficult to access reports, froze several times, slow, do not update files of deceased individuals, system keeps making me do the same pages over and over, very indirect Also you keep saying you have updates on people who are dead. You don't even have any knowledge they died or when.
