No value
December 12, 2021

A total rip off! Took my $27.99 for first month and info provided was totally incorrect. It said no marriage or divorce records and he's MY ex-husband. What's worse, I can't get in touch with anyone at PeopleWhiz to cancel and get my money back! Really sleazy

Misleading
December 12, 2021

BEWARE OF THIS SITE! They don't even deserve one star but I couldn't get by that. This company offers initial misleading information after a name search is entered. This is an enticement for you to want to see more. So you take the bait and sign up and pay the fee to view the exaggerated information they are offering. When you get into the page showing the personal information you requested it becomes a different story…pay more to see more. In other words you get very basic stuff like alias's, relatives, etc., no in-depth information like criminal history or any other very personal activity. They also include other names that are close to the one you search. Totally unrelated to the person you entered. After contacting the company immediately after seeing I'd been ripped off I asked for a full refund and to cancel my subscription. The only thing they did was cancel the subscription and not refund my money. Further contact with them and they are only offering to refund 75% of my fee. THIEVES!
DO NOT USE THIS SITE!

I hate your business model and the deceit involved with your marketing! You lead customers in to believing that they get unlimited reports for a fee. Then request a 2nd fee to get more than an addressed. Both reports are unsatisfactory by far! Useless! I would appreciate a refund and removed from your data base. You have been very deceiving! I would like a refund in full.

Excellent service
November 12, 2021

I got reports on several people to see the quality of the info. In some cases, it was excellent, but in others it was spotty or just plain not correct. But then my name is Taylor, so I got lots of Maybe info, but my daughter and I are in your data bases, but lots of excess criminal info on other Taylor. Also my marriage in Marin County in 2010 doesn't show up and my husband is missing entirely.

Still, you have a good service well done.

Thanks for the experience. Please cancel my account at the end of the one month trial.
