I was shocked when I paid almost 28.00 for a name address and age then needed to pay an additional 20$ to get additional information that was supposed to be included. I'm not very pleased at all. I won't be using this site anymore and will go back to the one I used to use. I'll also be asking for a refund.

Very disappointed with generic information. None of the information given contained enough detail to consider valid. Thought I was getting detailed info and find out I have to pay more. I already knew most everything you gave in the reports. I really don't think it is worth the money and if there is a way to get my money back please let me know. *******@att.net

This is a big ripoff!
January 31, 2023

This is a big ripoff! I wanted to know about my grandson. The information was very limited and incorrect! You say he wasn't married, which he was, etc. etc. Then you have the nerve to ask for more money for a premium report...What nerve!

Not happy about the hype given at the start of checking process that "this person seems to have criminal records" and "this person seems to have multiple social media accounts". Obviously this is meant to lure the person into paying to see those many records. But not everyone pays and goes away believing this person has many such records when they don't. It's a form of slander and is bad business.
