Old Info
October 18, 2024

Two different things, the info for my age is 72(84), my wife 72(passed away 10 years ago. Can't trust any of the information they sent. Only used it one time but will be last. $28.33 plus tax down the drain.

They are crooks who make you spend a lot of time thinking that you would get free information and then at the end of about 20 mins they pop the surprise that there is a fee. Silly, Ill stick to Checkmate!

We're sorry to hear that you felt frustrated with our billing policies. Just to clarify, our services are not available for free. We gather public record information from various data sources to offer thorough coverage about a search subject. While our reports are easily accessible to everyone, it does take some financial resources to build and maintain a platform that effectively finds relevant information and presents it in a way that's easy to understand. We're happy that we can provide our services at a reasonable and budget-friendly cost, making it simple for you to find the information you need quickly. We invite you to contact our Customer Care department at 855-921-3711 or via email at help@mg2.truthfinder.com so we can work together towards a resolution.

I have paid@ $30 a month for the last six months. Despite paying for unlimited, I was capped at 8 reports. They claim I requested over 300 reports because each time I opened one of the 8 reports, they counted it as a new request.The hold time to reach a representative was excessive. When I finally reached someone, the hung up on me. Their hours of operation are limited compared to other services of this type.

I have given this company several, several opportunities to redeem themselves over the years. I've cancelled my service 4 different times and they STILL charge me! I have numerous and I do mean numerous correspondence emails. Watch your drafts bc they will just randomly charge you. If I was the BBB I would have shut them down years ago. Yes they might refund your money, but then 2 months later there are charges. Seems like they are charging people with the mindset that people won't notice…. Horrible and incomplete reports and searches aren't even worth a dime. I do know they have several complaints that have gone all the way to the attorney general in Mississippi. It's really sad that this company is a scam!

Hello Anna,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. We understand that having full control over a subscription is important, and we regret any frustration this situation may have caused.

During the registration or reactivation process, our website directs users to a clear and detailed page where they can explore and select a membership plan. All important information, such as billing details and automatic renewal policies, is presented in full compliance with applicable laws. Additionally, users must confirm their understanding of these terms before completing their payment.

Upon reviewing the account history, a cancellation request was submitted on December 3,2024, and a confirmation email was sent at that time, which matches the screenshot referenced. However, on December 29,2024, the account was accessed, the membership was reactivated, the billing terms were agreed to again, and multiple searches were conducted.

Throughout the account’s history, there have been multiple cancellations and reactivations, with correspondence via email regarding cancellations and billing inquiries. Given this pattern, we want to ensure there is no confusion about how the subscription functions and how to manage the account moving forward. If there are any charges that seem unclear, we encourage members to reach out, and we’re happy to review account details and provide clarification.

TruthFinder members have the flexibility to cancel at any time by logging into their account, emailing our support team, or contacting us directly for assistance. While the account has now been canceled to prevent any future charges, we must adhere to our company policy, which does not allow refunds under these circumstances.

We appreciate your feedback and want to ensure your concerns are fully addressed. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please reach out to our support team at 855-921-3711 or via email at help@truthfinder.com. Our team is available during regular business hours, from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time (10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time), (holiday hours may vary).

Sincerely,
TruthFinder Customer Support

I used them, and paid a fee. I got what I needed, and canceled. They just charged me $28.33, which is more than originally. I even got an email telling me I had until the end of the month. Disputing charge.

We googled someone, then checked the 'details' box. After going through about 15 minutes or more of answering questions, we get to the very end and find out we have to now pay to get the report. There was no mention of that up front, so we wasted 15 minutes of our lives for nothing. Thanks for nothing Truthfinder.

I just looked up my own personal file; Truth Finder has me listed as some sort of criminal. I have NO criminal record. It also has me on a government watch list. Why would I be on a government watch list? I have not been in any protests or threaten anyone. I am retired and I stay home every day. They have people connected to me that I don't even know. The most I have received is a traffic ticket for going through a red-light district. It is not using my full name and your website had me living in Aubrey Texas, I NEVER LIVED IN Aubrey, TX.

Won't ever use them
February 21, 2024

I simply wanted to find an address for someone. Truthfinder popped up first so I foolishly proceeded. I didn't get the address, nor did I pay anything, but now I keep getting popups on my computer telling me my report is ready and I need to pay for it. I have written them several times asking them to stop sending the notice and to not contact me anymore, but to no avail. They make it next to impossible to contact them, and when you finally figure out how, they ignore you. I will NEVER use this service.

Worst experience EVER!
July 30, 2024

I have stage 4 cancer and wanted to find one of my very best friends from childhood - so decided to sign up for a short term membership to find contact info for folks that I could connect to online.
I did the right thing and cancelled - received the attached email from Truthfinder - so thought all was good.
I was not only charged - but charged two more times after this email!
When I reached out to my PayPal account to request a charge back to Truthfinder - their Bot just simply stated that Truthfinder had done everything appropriately!
Needless to say - I immediately closed my PayPal account!
I still have not received a refund and PayPal is still holding excess funds of mine!
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!

You'll find more on a free google search
October 5, 2023

Do not use this service. There are many more efficient and less expensive options. This "search" didn't show me anything you can't find with a simple google search. In fact I found more on google. What a joke. It's already almost $30 and then they try to get you with another $3.99 to download the so called report that you haven't even seen yet. Don't waste your time or money.

What a waste of money!
Nothing new except totally incorrect information.
All the information they had can easily be found with a simple google search.
They said my name was on some government watch list.
Yet they have no proof.

Really old info
July 3, 2022

I joined to see if I could find some public records on a friend's boyfriend. I already knew more than what the search came back with. The address was very old and there was a few things marked NO, such as a bankrupt event that happened years ago that was not on their report either. Total waste of money.

Tried this site because of it's "claim" of accuracy. Checked both my sons and report said no criminal history. One son has MAJOR FELONY convictions in two different states. Don't get robbed of the $30. Complete scam in my opinion!

I had cancelled my subscription to Truthfinder online and received a confirmation email. However, charges continued. When I contacted Truthfinder customer support via telephone, I was connected to an agent in less than one minute. After I provided the subscription ID from the cancellation confirmation, the agent was immediately able to identify the issue (duplicate subscriptions, hence four not five stars). They cancelled the second subscription and initiated a full refund.

This is the best customer service interaction I've had in a very long time.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I deactivated my account about a year ago. In September of 2023 I noticed my bank account was still being debited $28.05, $7.99, $3.99 every month. I called and was assured the charges would stop and that I would be refunded for the charges made since cancellation. In January of 2024 I noticed that I was still being charged and was never refunded. I called and got the same promise. It is now May of 2024 and I have yet to see a refund and they have debited those amounts from my account each month. The charges add up to $260.07. I have emailed several times over the last seven days with no response. I had to get a new debit card and my bank is investigating this as fraud. This really is nothing short of theft. Do NOT use this service. There are other much better much more thorough services that will not steal your money. I suggest you use those. The photo on my review is the screenshot from September 2023 where my account had already been inactive for 191 days
