“One Time was enough.”

Joyce C.

In my humble opinion, People Finder came through for me!. I am a senior and I needed to do find a next of kin to verify my service in the Veterans Admin. The website gave me the CORRECT INFO! I couldn't afford the monthly fee so for a small charge I received the information. It meant a lot to me that " They" gave me the option of a single search! I will highly recommend this company ABOVE all I have tried online‼

“Ripoff”

Ripoff. PeopleFinders runs a cleverly deceptive website. They automatically charged me a monthly fee of $24.95. I've tried to call and email them for an explanation. To date, I have not received a response. Don't get ripped off.

I don't understand the low reviews. The interface isn't pretty, but it does a pretty good job. Seems better than intelius and spokeo in my usage, but pipl seems to have a larger database. I may subscribe again. The thing with people finders is that you have to cancel your account and then they offer about ~40% off per month to stay. It is definitely not a scam. I used it to find quite a few people.

I've found a wealth of information on this site. Just read the product descriptions before you order - they have options to buy a single report for $1.95, or start a monthly membership and get the report for $. 95. It's all clearly marked, just make sure you read everything first. You can do people searches, get background checks and similar reports.
