This is not worth any money you may spend. They are just trying to upgrade you to more money for a "premium" account. What they initially have given me is riddled with mistakes and had no viable information. DO NOT BUY.

This report doesn't give very much information. Not to mention, almost each person, other than one, has been married and some divorced. I keep getting messages in my email that I have damaging information to my reputation, yet nothing comes up. I can't imagine what damaging information I would have, but I find this strange. Pretty much a waste of money. One person that I researched has several criminal records, Yet only one appears!

I'm just new to this, so I prefer to save until the end. I like how you made it easy for me to be able to access. (Will give detail at end.) So far, so good

Disappointed.
February 3, 2022

I wanted to test your service because I have been looking for a service that provides accurate information. As a test I did a search for an individual that I have known most my life and is relative.
I was very disappointed in the report I received. Much information was incorrect or was not accurate as to dates. It showed me addresses that this person has never lived and incorrect dates on several items.
This had a bankruptcy and misdemeanor conviction that were not on the report. It showed persons that were not related and missed several that were.
So, I would like to cancel my account.

Don't Do it
February 3, 2022

I expected a full report, not to be penny pinched at each click

Information only partially accurate. Very limited.

Nothing i didnt already know.
February 2, 2022

I thought that i would be billed monthly not six months up front in advance. This hurts by finanacial situation. What a bummer. Hopefully i will need to look someone up in the six months for this to be a smart decision.

Your site stated all kinds of false information prior to receiving report-that is a bait and switch and completely unprofessional!

I've had a "People Whiz" account for over 2 years but haven't used it for years because my account is locked. I don't know why though because $27.00 is debited from my checking account each & every month. That amount should be enough to access your most "Premium" service. Right? Anyway, out of curiosity, I searched myself using your service when it appeared as a "pop up" ad on my phone. I entered my info to search myself & also agreed to pay for a premium search with PayPal. I was informed that I didn't have to pay extra because it was already 'Premium". Ok. So, I tried over & over to get the DEEP Report & NOPE. It just goes back saying I have to pay more. I cannot get the results unless I pay more & I can't pay more because I've already paid more. There are no other options. Also, even though the search positively identified me by my name, age, Town, etc. The rest of the limited info was ridiculously false.
