I telephoned a specific hotel site and through the ritual of press 1, press 2, press 3, etc., was taken to what I though was the hotel booking desk. It turned out to be a rip-off site of reservations.com. The first strike was talking to a foreigner who really couldn't handle the English language. I booked a hotel room and the next day had to ask the hotel I booked at a specific question and through conversation learned I could have gotten a much better rate through them directly. I cancelled through booking site and was refunded the hotel rate but the booking site, which was then identified as reservations.com (not affiliated with any specific hotel) kept a fee of $14.99 just to talk to me. I talked to reservations.com again and they said they would not refund the $14.99 because they "serviced" me. I didn't know I had gone through a third party just to book a hotel. Be sure you identify whom you are booking with before proceeding with your personal information. By the way, that hotel I wanted to book with is now forever off my preferred list of decent hotels.

All you will get in this search/review is name, addresses, and those possibly related to the subject - - nothing else. If you want more, you will have to pay extra on a what you need basis. Secondly, to subscribe you must agree to auto-6 month renewal via a registered credit card. Yes, you can opt out of the plan prior to the auto-renewal by a phone call to Persopo. Thirdly, as in my situation, my credit card company changed my card number during the renewal week and Persopo denied my renewal. Persopo stated to me that I had to re-register and that all history of searched names in my account were deleted - - no more records of my use of the site. Not a customer friendly organization.

Tip for consumers:
The subscription teaser is bloated and you don't get what is advertised unless you add more money per search.
