I signed up for this for $27.99 for one month. You could also sign up for 3 or 6 months with recurring monthly fees. Mine was set up to automatically charge me again every month which was not stated anywhere or noted on my receipt. Very deceptive. I searched 3 people I know, all of whom had marriage/divorce records. Nothing came up. One had a DUI and the other had multiple felonies and had done multiple prison terms. He even had a minor sex offense. None of this came up. All that comes up are age, relatives, addresses and phone numbers. That can all be found for free on Google or Whitepages.com. My friend uses TruthFinder and although it is not thorough either, some criminal records and tax liens did show up. DO NOT use Peoplewhiz. It is a scam.

I ran a report on myself. Since I knew all that it might find, I felt this was a good way to check it. In fact, I wasted $29.95. There is a lot of information "out there" which it should have been able to find (such as my first marriage) but it did not. It said my second wife and I were married, but also reported that we were divorced, which is totally untrue. Very incomplete or inaccurate data on phone numbers and email addresses. Essentially, a total waste.

I wasn't going to pay even the lowest fee of $27 for my searches. PeopleWhiz are very sneaky. Right when I logged out from the site I was told that for only $1.00 I'd have unlimited access for five days. PeopleWhiz failed to mention that the only way a person can see any real information such as criminal records is by paying $27. Paying a $1.00 entitles a person to only see basic information, date of birth and a very basic address history. This site is so misleading. It's just one of the many online people search sites that take advantage of people.

The first month worth of research using PeopleWhiz went ok, lots of useless or incorrect information but I really only needed some of the data provided, still wasted time sorting through the incorrect info... second month did not go as well, I really only got 4 out of 6 requests that were useful. The third month is when I couldn't get a completed report without a request to subscribe again. After several messages/phone calls, they refunded the months subscription and I had to re-subscribe to continue with my project. I completed one search before the subscription request started again. I cancelled my subscription. Wasted lots of time for minimal results.

Not as advertised. Peoplewhiz did not have marriage or divorce records which I easily found on County website. Did not list known Facebook account which should have been easy along with Snapchat and Tinder. After paying $28 for one month you have to pay more to upgrade to a premium account. I called customer service and told them that they missed obvious information and asked for a refund or an upgrade and got no compensation in any way. Total waste of money

JUST NAME, ADDRESS, NO PROMISED INFORMATION WITHOUT EXTRA PAYMENT, AND NOTHING ELSE, JUST AUTOMATIC ENROLMENT.

The first person I searched was myself and there were several names listed as relatives that I didn't know and a person who had stole my identity and stalked me, listed as a relative. I only tried the 5 day trial and they still charged my bank account $29.95 and now waiting for a refund. The only positive was being able to opt out fairly easy, but they want a copy of your driver's license to confirm and to me that's invasion of privacy. They say it's to be sure you are the person wanting to opt out yourself, but who would need to opt out anyone else!

I used PeopleWhiz to look up my long-lost brother. The site found my brother and said my brother had a criminal record. After I paid $27.99 for a one-month subscription for a report, the report contained only an outdated address that was at least 25 years old, nothing else. If I wanted more information, I would have to pay more money. This is a sleazy way to do business. Less that 24 hours later, I telephoned PeopleWhiz and cancelled my subscription. I was told that my $27.99 would be refunded. I will notify my credit card company. Leo N.
