Background Check - V.Good

ARF Investigators carried out a thorough background check of a potential client for me, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Their professionalism and discretion stood out from the start, and the report was detailed, accurate, and easy to understand. The team kept me updated throughout, giving me complete confidence in the process. Highly recommended for reliable, professional investigation services.

Don't call them unless you want to hear foul language.

I have just tried to speak to someone at the Newport, South Wales office. The person answering the phone did not say the name of the company, so I asked for the name, to make sure that I had the correct number. The person said I was crazy, using a swear word. I called again, trying to explain that I was not crazy, but I needed to find a private investigator. I was told that they were too busy, and did not want my business. I was very shocked.

SCAM

This company and many others including A.R.F are a SCAM all run by the same people.
