Service on initial report was fine

Service on initial report was fine, but I didn't like how they continue to bill you monthly -- YOU NEED TO CANCEL - otherwise you get automatic monthly billing.

Hi RM,

Thank you for sharing your feedback and we're glad to hear the initial report met your expectations!

Regarding the recurring billing, we want to clarify that our service is a monthly subscription that renews automatically until canceled. This is clearly stated prior to entering billing information, in the billing details, in our Terms of Use, and in both the welcome email and receipt email sent upon enrollment. All of which confirm the recurring nature of the subscription before and after purchase.

Members can cancel at any time by logging into their account and navigating to the subscriptions tab, using our automated IVR by phone, or by speaking directly with a representative via phone or live chat, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time (10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time).

If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Care team at 855-921-3711. Holiday hours may vary.

Hi James,

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We understand how important it is to have complete and accurate information. While we do our best to provide comprehensive reports, public records data can sometimes have limitations and we always recommend using our reports as a starting point for your own research.

Regarding the pricing, your membership provides unlimited searches by name and address, giving you the flexibility to search as many individuals as you need for one flat monthly rate.

I researched myself and it was inaccurate

I researched myself and my grown children, and there were so many inaccuracies, that it was ridiculous. Also, this website is charging extra for things that should have been included in the initial fee. They don't even include some of the most necessary information that I was looking for. I will never use this website again, nor will I recommend it to anyone.

Hi Jan,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. We apologize for any difficulty you had in finding the information you needed.

While we strive to keep our reports as current and comprehensive as possible, there are times when data may not be fully accurate or complete due to the nature of public records and limitations of our data sources. Source data is sometimes reported or entered inaccurately and is generally not free from defect. We are not the original source of this data, nor are we a comprehensive compilation of all available data, and we always recommend independently verifying any information before relying on it.

Regarding the additional charges, our add-on features are always optional and are never automatically included in a standard subscription, allowing members to only pay for the services they need.

We have reached out through Trustpilot to request additional details so that we can locate your account and better assist you. If you would like to address this sooner, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Care team at 855-921-3711, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time (10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time).

It would be better if you didn't have separate charges for all your services like most other companies do and your reports take a full 10 minutes to compile when other companies can do it in 2 minutes I was completely dissatisfied with this service however your customer service representatives are pretty good thank you

Hi Benjamin,

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for the kind words about our Customer Care team!

Regarding the separate charges for additional services, we want to clarify that our add-on features are always optional and are never automatically included in a standard subscription. This allows our members to only pay for the services they need.

Regarding the report compilation time, the loading screen is part of our search process as our system works to locate and compile information from multiple data sources on the individual being searched. We appreciate your feedback on this and will be sure to escalate it accordingly.

If you ever need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Care team at 855-921-3711, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time (10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time). Holiday hours may vary.

The 1 month membership is NOT 1 month

The 1 month membership is NOT 1 month! It will keep renewing with the 1 month pricing which is the most expensive option. Total money grab. Would not recommend.

Hi Will,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. We want to take a moment to address your concerns and provide some clarity.

Our monthly membership is a recurring subscription that renews every 30 days, which is clearly disclosed before payment is submitted, within our Terms of Use, and in the receipt email sent upon enrollment. Users are also required to explicitly agree to these recurring billing terms before completing registration. We want to assure you that this is not a money grab but rather how our subscription model is structured.

Members can cancel their membership at any time by logging into their account and navigating to the subscriptions tab, using our automated IVR by phone, or by speaking directly with a representative via phone or live chat, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time (10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time).

I was helped by a lady named Sophia. I am 84 years old & do not function as effectively or clearly as I did when younger. Sophia was extremely patient & polite with me. My whole experience was made without aggravation or frustration due to the professional & kind exchange I had with Sophia. She deserves a gold star & a raise. Sincerely, Mary Willert

Canceled before the 30 day trial period. FINALLY (hopefully!) got them to stop charging me after aprox. 18 months!! Beware if you sign up and you only want the trial period. You'll be fighting with these jerks to get your money back. Service was so-so. There are much better and honest sites.
