Pretty crappy for the money. Checked my own report. Apparently I'm currently in prison for manslaughter. What a joke.

Hi, Jon. Please be aware that our site does include many elements of information. If you are seeing information that seems wrong, it simply means this is the information available. You might want to contact the court house or public defender's office in the city you're seeing incorrect information originating from if this is something you would like to see resolved. If you would like to speak to us about this issue, please give us a call at 1-800-831-9235 between 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. PST 7 days a week.

Spyfly is a joke!
December 18, 2014

Spyfly is a joke! I looked up two people that I know for a fact have a very long criminal record and the only thing that Spyfly came up with in a search were a few addresses and a couple of family member names. I got all that information online for free! Spyfly did not show any of the many arrests nor the 7 year and not even the 9 year prison sentence that one of them served in MI & OH. I feel this website is totally worthless.

Dear Carol,. Thank you for your comment and we are sorry to hear you were unsatisfied with our service. Please be aware that our site includes billions of data elements that are available in our national database. If you are not seeing information on our site, then that means that the data you are looking for is not publicly available; or for some reason our data providers didn't provide it to us. So, even if you are positive that something occurred, it’s not guaranteed that the information has been digitally archived correctly by the court system or governing agency so it’s possible that your data is not yet available. For some people this is a good thing because negative information might be difficult or impossible to find.

In addition, every county processes their data differently and sometimes there are delays. As a member, you will be emailed with an update when any information on the people that you are monitoring changes. This way you will always be the first to be alerted.

One of the key features of our membership is your ability to run unlimited background searches and create reports on as many people as you like. We recommend you run a check on yourself and your loved ones so that you know what information is publicly available, you might be surprised and some of the information might not be correct. In addition, you can monitor up to four people at a time so if any information changes in our database on the people you choose to monitor, you get an email alert updating you of that change.
We hope this addresses your concern. If you have any questions, please reply to this email or call us at 800-831-9235 from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. PST 7 days a week and our friendly member support staff will be happy to assist you.

We look forward to helping you protect your family with our service and our benefits.

After 26 years of searching for my biological father and extended family, I joined this site and within days, was able to find them and make contact! I've tried dozen of others sites and ran into countless dead ends and endure heartbreaking disappointment. There is NO OTHER SITE that can produce as accurate results as Spyfly. NONE! ZIP. NADA. ZILCH. It's the best site, HANDS DOWN. And, I can't fail to mention, Spyfly also have I. M. P. E. C. C. I. B. L. E. Customer Service Personal. :)

This is a great service
November 5, 2014

This is a great service. I discovered an agency was sending a woman to my house who had been convicted of forgery, possession of stolen property and obtaining property under false pretenses. Supposedly the agency was doing background checks, but they were not. I'm so grateful for this service. Because I knew this through Spyfly, I was able to kindly find a nonconfrontational way to get this house keeper out of my house.

To whom it may concern, “we take money without asking?” is completely false. Our signup process is incredibly clear and alerts you to the fact that there is a one week trial period for $2 for you to review the service and benefits and that after that period there is a monthly cost for the membership of $29.97. To create a membership and to ensure that customers understand the terms and conditions of the membership, you must check a box that you understand what you are doing to become a member. In addition, we tell you all of the terms and conditions in a confirmation page post signup and in a welcome email that is emailed upon signup.

In case you weren’t aware, Spyfly is the internet’s most complete background check service making it fast, easy and safe for people to find and learn the truth about anyone. We aggregate billions of public records into a single, easy to use interface and manage this information with cutting edge technology.
One of the key features of our membership is your ability to do unlimited background searches and create reports on as many people as you would like. We recommend everyone does a check on themselves and their loved ones so that you know what information is publicly available, you could be surprised and some of the information might not be correct. In addition, you can monitor up to four people at a time so if any of their information changes in our database, you would get an email alert updating you of that change.
You can also do targeted searches to find out if there are sex offenders living near your loved ones. You can create a 5 mile protection zone around your home and monitor sex offender activity in your neighborhood and up to 3 other locations anywhere in the country where your family frequently visits. We will send immediate email alerts when a new sex offender registers within one of your monitoring zones.
Lastly, our members are able to set up Emergency Response Profiles for each one of their children. These digital profiles contain a child’s picture, personal information, physical description, medical information as well as guardian contact information. These profiles can instantly be emailed to friends, family or the police in case a child goes missing or is abducted; this assists parents and law enforcement in the recovery of the missing child. If you would like to discuss this matter further please contact us at 1-800-831-9235 and anyone of our helpful member support representatives can assist you.

I spoke with Melanie over the phone only to cancel my account with SpyFly. I was only canceling because I only needed the site for one day, and was using their $1 7-day trial to look at my own records. I had questions, and she went above and beyond to answer them. On top of all that, she had a great attitude, pleasant voice, and respect for the customer. I can only imagine some of the calls she must receive considering it is SpyFly, but she treated me like I was VIP from start to finish. If anyone is looking for a wonderful phone personality, hire her and give her a raise immediately! I never write reviews, but with this recent experience, I insisted.

I am a 64yr. Old grandmother looking out for myself, grandchildren/family, and neighbors. This site is a blessing because we have to step up and do what we can to aid each other in this day and time. No one group of law enforcements can do it all we have to work together this is a wonderful site to assist us. Thank you spyfly.com!

Spyfly helps me stay aware of important information that can influence my families safety. Spyfly has helped me gain an idea of what information is out there about my family. I have learned that the information can sometimes not be accurate. Spyfly gives me the opportunity to address the information out there which I feel is important. Now I can address the inaccurate information and go through the steps to have the data corrected. I appreciate the ability to locate sex criminals near my family. The service alerts by e-mail if they locate new offenders within five miles of my home. Margie R.
