It's ok
December 26, 2022

It's ok. Not much report on myself but a lot of sex offenders names & pictures. It be good if it showed their address too! As for people that I'm related to and never knew, it be good to show their address and pictures too!

The advertizing is entirely missleading
January 31, 2022

The advertizing is entirely missleading. After acquiring a membership with supposed unlimited searches we learn an extra twenty dollars per search is required for complete information... a total scam.
Then only half of the fee is returned when the scam is protested.
Totally dishonest and misleading. The company should be ashamed.

Well, to be honest, I'm being asked this question and I can not see my report until I rate this site. The gathering of the info was under 10 min., so, I appreciate that. If this report is all that PeopleWhiz are saying it is, then, I'm sure when I get to see my report, I will be happy with it. So I'd like to say, "Thank you" in advance

Inaccurate
February 9, 2022

The information I received was less then other reports I received on the same person. You advertise that the information would be beyond that of others and it was not. Criminal history reported nothing on a known felon.

Not impressed by info available
February 17, 2023

Not impressed by info available. Not worth the money. Could have gotten the same info for less. No indication on pay for premium info when signing up. I only did the one month for $27.99. Waste of money.

I really thought it would provide more info than Google and it did not. I purchased the "upgrade" only to find absolutely no records available. Sad but, it didn't provide me with any more info than I had.

Updated review

Continually need to reenter my credit card information even though I signed up for the one month service. Frequently, even after going through the report generation process for a lenghty period of time, no report appears.

I paid for the basic report and the upgraded version as well - - not satisfied at all. Rate my experience 2-3 stars. Will use another company next time.

The report did not denote this person was born out of the US.
The report did not contain information on a legal from the past.
The report did not contain information on this person's house purchase in Honolulu, HI in the last 90 days.

I wasn't going to pay even the lowest fee of $27 for my searches. PeopleWhiz are very sneaky. Right when I logged out from the site I was told that for only $1.00 I'd have unlimited access for five days. PeopleWhiz failed to mention that the only way a person can see any real information such as criminal records is by paying $27. Paying a $1.00 entitles a person to only see basic information, date of birth and a very basic address history. This site is so misleading. It's just one of the many online people search sites that take advantage of people.

PeopleWhiz attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

You suckered me into into getting this subscribing to it when all along you can't see anything unless you upgrade the premium at the beginning I hate being tricked. The web is famous for that and so are you

No info
August 20, 2022

Was looking for criminal records which I know there is but it came back as nothing. The information I received for almost $30 was nothing I couldn't find on my own. It's a scam. Thank you for lesson learned.

You only give birthdate. That's no info. You seem to want more money on the chance you have more. You aren't even saying if he is married and his wife's name. How many kids. Employment. Pretty lame. You need to come across with more info.

I think you entice people to try this on 1 person, then the report is done there's a surprise. To see the report you be just generated, you have to sign up for the service. But I still have seen the report. How is a person going to decide whether they want the service when they can't see the sample report to determine the accuracy of your service? Since there is no mention of the cost until you get to the end, I consider that to be deceptive.

Not Good
June 15, 2022
Updated review

OK so far. Haven't seen report yet!. Then when they were processing the report on this guy they alluded that they had found some criminal activity. So to see the report I had to subscribe to the service for $27 for a month. Then when I opened the report all I got were the very basics and any criminal activity was in their premium report which cost an additional fee so I had to pay for that also which drove my cost of this report to close to $50 dollars! And after I paid for the premium report I found no criminal activity listed. All I got was this person's address and contact information! What a waste!

I did a search on myself and next to nothing appears. Before getting sucked into paying for information the downloading showed a gathering of a lot of information but once the fee was paid there is another fee for information I thought I was receiving with the first fee. VERY VERY misleading. You should be ashamed of yourself.
