This site advertises "free" checks then after 5 - 10 minutes of waiting for the site to compile results you have to pay to see the report. I don't mind paying for a service, but don't tell me its free, waste my time and then charge me for what you just said was free. I am fed up

I was amazed by how much information CheckPeople was able to find about my
Long-lost cousin - it even showed all their social media profiles, so I was 100%
Certain they were the right person, and I had a really casual way to try to reach
Out and get back in touch. If you've lost touch with your family or anyone else. It's
A really easy way to try and find them again. Thanks

"Just a small monthly fee" yeah $#*!ing right. When I first signed up it charged me $1. Then the same day it charged an extra $7. Fast forward two days and my account is charged another $49.99. Customer service is awful; I've been trying to cancel my subscription ever since that $49.99 charged my account. Only $#*!ty companies make it this hard to cancel a subscription. Legit companies let you cancel with ease; no calls with customer service and cancelling is a breeze within the website/app. I wouldn't give your card info to any sites like this, EVER. You don't need these people lookup services. Learn from our mistakes, people!

I tried a free trial subscription to find addresses of former classmates for our 20 year class reunion. I found a good amount of info on several people on my list but not enough to justify a long term commitment.

I'm quite happy with the service and product. I originally didn't understand how the payment worked, but after a quick call with their customer service team, we had all the details straightened out. It is pretty clear after all, I guess I just missed reading something. The site is great and I'm happy with the results. I'll definitely be using it much more moving forward.

Misleading website
September 22, 2020

I was charged $6.99 and $8.99 for the $1.00 free trial service. Check people is a complete fraud. I never saw anything but that it was going to cost $1.00 for the people search feature. This has never happened to me and the customer service agent was rude and unhelpful. Do not I repeat do not sign up for any of their services because you will be ripped off.

Ran a check on myself and was shocked that absolutely nothing was true because I wouldn't pay the fee they posted it on my phone anyway. Now I cannot get rid they noticed us after months of trying! What a scam do not fall for it if I could give it a lower score I would like a double zero or below that even!

I love how CheckPeople. Com aggregates information from various sources. Saves me time and keeps me from having to dive into dozens of results on Google.

$#*!ty
April 25, 2021

$#*!ty if I could give this no stars I mean yeah it shows phone numbers and the addresses some email but it's definitely not up to date and by most things it just shows on the records even on different people's names so it's definitely not worth the $30 you pay

Truthful
April 23, 2020

This site is very easy to navigate and use. I've tried different websites and this is really want sets it apart. I use this site often because I buy and sell second hand cars. Sometimes the deals I find are too good to be true so I use Check People to be sure the person I'm dealing with is legit and everything he or she says is truthful. The results give me the peace of mind I look for in determining if the sale is going to be worth it or not to meet up with people ahead of time. Both buyers and sellers can be looked up and I'm definitely going to be keeping this account due to the ease of their site as well as the accurate and quick results it provides.

Do not use check people people PCHLLC or been verified. All three companies will keep charging you $30 a month after they say it's a one time fee. I am writing reviews this morning and contacting my bank and the Better Business Bureau to look into the scam. They claim to charge you one dollar but will continuously charge you monthly. If you don't immediately cancel your subscription, It's a scam. It's all in the fine print

Surprise
April 3, 2020

I wanted to plan a surprise birthday and family reunion for my wife's family, without telling her. I used check people to reach out to her cousins across the county. I got their addresses for the invitations and was able to confirm that all the people I were searching for were the right people. So I'm pleased with the very accurate results and website. I'll let me friends and colleagues know about how great this site is.

DO NOT USE THIS
June 13, 2022

I just really need to warn anyone who may consider using this service. DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE. They have hidden charge here and there and you got lured in thinking it's just $1! They are very deceiving and will not be helping you with anything. Also, the reason they need you to call in to cancel instead of a click on the website, is that they still want to SELL you no matter how many times you tell them you don't want it. It's a very disturbing service. Don't be fooled into this. Save your money somewhere else with transparency.

I used Check People to plan a family reunion. It helped me find the current address and email for every relative I had lost touch with. Thanks to Check People. All my family has now reconnected and we're closer then we ever were before. Thanks

Stay away from this useless company that commits fraud with customers. I was not on this for 1 day. Only signed up for $1 which was charged an additional 7 dollars for so called pdf services that I never saw either. Their customer service which i called 2xs does nothing to stop the fraud of unauthorized costs.
