Everything here is true, first search gave info after that charged for everything requested as if I was not a subscriber - rip off stay away. Added Sept 12,2016. The business comment below my original post sounds reasonable. But the site does not advertise honestly and clearly. The deception lies in the fact that I paid for a service to give me the SAME results each time as I got on my first search after I paid for a subscription. I tried three times later on during my subscription period and each time they wanted more money for what I already had paid for previously. Problem with that.
