I never used it until today because My card was being charged and I didn't remember signing up for the services, until she told me what it was. I remembered I didn't want to pay the service to look at myself, so I had to cancel services.

I like the thoroughness of your findings; you often do better than some of the other search engines. It's sometimes difficult to determine which is the most recent and active address among those listed for an individual.

I correctly entered a credit card number 3 times and you rejected it. I want address, phone and email information and have to wait forever for all the incidental information you generate. Their ought to be a way to specify what I want instead of assuming I want everything.

Exploitation
December 1, 2022

I don't think that the customer needs to be led to believe that they're going to see the whole report. Only to be asked for more money to double the information. Just tacky.

So far I haven't been able to verify that this is the person I'm looking for. There are no photos. Everything is very vague and certain things I know are not true are being reported but with NO details. I suspect this is so I'll pay more money for the premium report. I might have done that had I received some information I knew to be true. I consider this a scam and want to cancel and get my money back.

Traffic offenses. Unable to open them enough to find location and other details so I could even see if I was in That state at the time.
Same with phone numbers and most everything else. I was consistently only getting partial information which was not enough to clarify it for me

I want a refund ASAP. YOUR ADVERTISING WAS WRONG TO. Get your report for a dollar! Then the info stated multiple criminal records, but there were none, which I didn't find that out before I paid for premium edition.
Refund both the sign up fee and the premium fee and what ever else you charged me. Next is Better Business Bureau!

Not worth the effort
November 30, 2022
Updated review

I have cancelled automatic payments with PayPal. I think you probably have a descent product, but you market it like "Used Car Sales". Oh look at all this information you can get... but if you want to see it all it's another $20. Like a Used Car Sales Person, it's a clean car. But floor mats are an additional $120.

So I will reduce my starting rating to a Two Star rating, just for the used car move, and let you know that your information in your report is, as we would have said in the military "half-assed". It's incomplete, out of date, and includes information that does not pertain to the search. On further thought, you got my $27.99 but based on my last thoughts, you're now down to One-Star.
Oh, and if you haven't gotten the message by now,
CANCEL MY ACCOUNT!

I just got the report and haven't even started reviewing it. I think at this point a 3 Star rating is fair. Check with me after I review the results.
