This is a scam site...These "people" charged my card back to back with over 40.00 of "fees" when I have never heard of them or signed up for anything they have, After searching the "company" online and trying to contact customer support, I quickly discovered they are non-existent, The number they have as CS online line kept telling me their server was unavailable, something I've never seen before.
BEWARE, CANCEL YOUR CARD IF THEY CHARGE YOU BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT STOP... Even days after this they are still trying to hit my card for 1.00, the typical way scammers see if any funds are in the account, if that goes through they keep increasing the amount they hit your account for until they drain every penny you have.
Thank GOD I blocked them, canceled my card, and took all the steps to ensure they no longer have my information. Good luck if you encounter them, Take all the steps needed to get a new card, because they do not stop once they have your card number.
SCAM, 1 dollar for sign up, 6.99 that I did not approve. And in 2 more days they was going to charge me 22 dollars more and I couldn't even find myself on there after giving all the correct information.
This website is a complete scam. I used the website for one day for one background check on myself and did not receive any information I was looking for. I unsubscribed from the website that day using the website. Just for them to take money out of my accountI two months after later because they said that I had not unsubscribed when I did. Now the company does not want to refund my money back even thought I haven't used the website since I got the background check.
I strongly advise against using CheckPeople.com. This company employs highly deceptive billing practices to lure unsuspecting customers into unauthorized subscriptions and fees.
I initially signed up for a seemingly simple, one-time background check, which was advertised as costing only $1. However, upon reviewing my credit card statement, I discovered multiple unauthorized charges:
Deceptive $1 Charge: A misleading initial charge of $1, which was used to bait and switch customers into a subscription.
Unauthorized Monthly Subscription Fees: Two charges of $29.16 each, totaling $58.32, for a subscription I never authorized.
Unauthorized Report Printing Fees: Two charges of $6.95 each, totaling $13.90, for reports I did not request or receive.
This fraudulent activity resulted in a total of $73.22 in unauthorized charges. I had to dispute these charges with my bank, which was a time-consuming and frustrating process.
I urge you to exercise extreme caution when dealing with CheckPeople.com. Their deceptive tactics and dishonest business practices are unacceptable. Please share this review to warn others and help prevent them from falling victim to this scam.
Doesn't give any valid info. Payed the 5$ to sign up and i didn't realize you have to cancel after three days or they'll start automatically charging your card on file 30$ monthly. Tried to cancel the account for a refund, but they don't accept refund after they've already charged your card and has been processed. Making y'all aware to cancel the account within 3 days because even paying the 30$$ they still don't give you valid information. They don't keep the site updated at all!
I wish it were free, but CheckPeople. Com gives comprehensive reports that are up to date, and even shows hidden dating profiles and fake names. Its worth it, but maybe think about a free option for people?.
To my experience is a scam they let you know how much for their services and you add your card information and they end up overcharged you until they exhaust your account I advise subscribers to beware luckily to me I didn't add my basic bank account card
CheckPeople. Com made it effortless to reconnect with my long-lost half-sister. Forever grateful to have my family together again! (I seriously cried when I found here - I cannot thank you enough for this!).
As most websites on the internet they advertised as free. At the very end, these folks ask for money too don't waste your company be alive by the small things the Bible says the lie by anything they just want your money
They say they will charge you a certain amount and then they charge for other things. Then they don't bother to tell you it's a subscription and take $24.99 off of your card the next month and don't reimburse you when you call them to let them know you didn't know they were going to charge you monthly for a subscription. It's a scam!
I found inaccuries in other reports, so I had given up on online background checks. But my friend told me to give checkpoeple a try, and I'm really glad I did. I ran it on myself first and everything was dead on!.
Check history on someone, informed me of information 10 years ago, no work history. Called and cancelled a fast as possible. Cost 5 dollars... well wastes 5 dollars... their customer support of course blamed the local court house here... not exactly a small city but who knows. Don't waste your money on this out of date piece of trash site. There has to be better sites, facebook would tell you more about the person than this place..
I have check the address of my best friend who's l lost contact on 9/7/21 and being promised to pay 1$ for 7 days trial. What a surprise was waiting for me today 9/11/21 when I check my account 29.17$ already charged? Date for charge is 9/13/21. Reaching customer service another "nice" experience. Michelle not even listening my request for cancellation was continuing her speech with further advertising?!?!?! Poor practice and culture
They trick you into signing in with $1 so they can charge you $30 monthly afterward. Never before have I encountered such disgusting business practices. Then the representative I talked to said I had to read the fine print? How does this company live with themselves stealing from hard working people? I only wanted an address history for myself. Not worth the $70 plus that was stolen from my account.
I used service one time. Cancelled on second day of trial period. When I hung up from phone my card alert went off. They charged my card for a full month. When I called back they flat out lied about charges. Now I am out the money for at least 4 days. What the company did was credit card fraud, everyone needs to check their charges and dates. I will be calling the State Attorney Generals office in Alabama and Florida and see about pressing charges. Maybe a lawyer will file a class action suit also.
It says in the terms and constrains "non-refundable". This does not give them the right to provide information that is 100% out of date and not at all accurate. They do not list most current information and not even close to showing accurate criminal history.
Do not waste your money with this background search company. Been Verified is much better. This company misrepresents themselves and lie about their product. $4.99 down the drain for me. Terrible company. If I could rate zero stars, I would.
READ the fine print if you use this site. Paid $1 to get my report and then was subsequently charge $29 for an automatic subscription. You can only cancel by calling or emailing their customer support. There is no way to cancel through your actual account, which they do so when you call to cancel they can keep trying to sell you more things. My customer service representative was nice enough, but kept trying to ask if I wanted to subscribe to other services. No, cancel my account OR offer a way to do it through your accounts dashboard. I understand I clearly did not read the fine print, but this day in age it's messed up for a company to not offer an easy way to opt out of a subscription through no customer service contact.
Paying $4.99 to run one background check is ok. What they dont show you on the screen is they are also going to charge you $6.99 to be able to review the PDF report. Worst part is, you can search someone that you know has a criminal history and nothing at all shows up. They cant even show date of birth. Please dont fall for this scam site.
Was banned before ever signed in. Finally fixed. Used for 2 hrs. (for unlimited use) and was temporarily terminated. After 3 days of no one contacting me back, tried to cancel and was offered $20 off if I'd stay, but apparently was still temporarily terminated. No one would answer email to straighten out. Called again to cancel and was told I was permanently banned. THEN I see an email to tell me that I had violated rules. All I did was look at friends and family like they encourage. Beyond frustrating. Forgot…I also was sent a response to someone else's problem that they were having.
I signed up thinking I was going to be able to background check myself for $1 then immediately checked my back statement only to find out I had be charged $6.99 plus another charge for $29.17. They definitely scam you out of your money! I argued with them over the charges for awhile and the people you get on the phone when you call for some reason can't refund all your money. They make you jump through hoops to get it and send an email to someone else to dispute it. Complete scam!
Answer: Scam! Beware, they will drain your bank before you even have a chance to notice!
Answer: I had to cancel my card with my bank and file 3 claims before I got $4.33 back. But, Check people will say they didn't take it and say that you have to do a 3 way call for them to verify. I don't know about you, but I'm a complete idiot when it comes to technology.
Answer: BECAUSE THIS COMPANY WILL RIP YOU OFF! CALL YOUR CARD HOLDER IMMEDIATELY AND STOP PAYMENT!
Answer: Report them to the FCC. I did. They say they'll charge you one amount, then go nuts on your card.
