I am not very pleased with the fact that I had to pay extra money for the complete report... I was given the impression that I would get the complete report with the offer of the 27.95... I think that the site is flawed... since most of the names listed were not me or any of my family! So, any info pulled on those names are not me!

I know that the person I searched has a criminal background yet it does not show up. The report was no better that what came up after I paid, even the advanced search.

This isn't all that it is purported to be- — you have to pay more to get real information; furthermore, there was an incorrect instagram account — the person pictured (tattooed arms) was NOT the person I paid to check on. I'm requesting a refund! Cancel my account!

Feel the advertising is misleading
November 1, 2021

Feel the advertising is misleading. It advertises secret social media accounts, etc and only provided general background information, if you don't increase your membership. It should have a least indicated that when selecting the initial member options. This was a waste of $14.

All of these apps entice you with all that you will get, pages and pages of luring you in, then the report is done - surprise you have to pay, and worse you have to pay again if you want more that his name and address to a ‘premium' report. It exactly like BeenVerified and all of these types of apps.

Info not correct, address is off
November 1, 2021

Info not correct, address is off. He's my brother and hasn't lived in pasadena in months, he lives in Huntington Beach now with an illegal immigrants and her son. Also I didn't expect to have to pay more for the information it showed I would receive by paying the "Recommended" subscription method which I assumed would give me all the things you said to have in your advertisement, there was not anything about extra fees for what you are advertising.

I I gave it a four but I still haven't checked it so that could possibly go down or hopefully up. I will return with correct feedback when I do review the site.
