Unauthorized charges
December 22, 2021

I did not subscribe to or purchase any service from this website. I did get unwillingly redirected to their site several times while online, but I left the website as quickly as possible. Then I came across two charges posted through PayPal from my bank account. $27.99 and $19.95. I want my money back! I do not have an order ID because I did not order anything.

If your gut feelings tell you that you should check someone's background, the site is a good and easy way to get information quickly. The monthly cost for the service will save you a lot of heart ache later.

There should be a more efficient way to start a new search than having to scroll all the way to the end to find the dashboard.

You keep emailing me that there is new information on this search but there never is. You say there is nothing known about her relatives yet I know she has a daughter.

They arent very upfront about that you wont get squat of a report unless you shell out roughly $30.00 per month. I hate that personally.

I paid for a 5 day trail to find out that it was only "basic" information. A more detailed report would be an additional upcharge. Intullis included civil judgements and all of the other info that you don't include. Shame on you for not mentioning that. I feel like I got hoodwinked and I definitely will not continue using this service nor will I recommend it to anyone.

It has asked for my VISA card number twice. I hope you don't bill me twice for the first 30 days.
It is stated the cost per month. This is almost the end November which will not be 30 days.
