This site is a waste of time
This site is a waste of time. Don't bother.
Absolutely rude over the phone
Absolutely rude over the phone, having to cancel via phone call? How does that make any sense.
If they have your card number cancel it immediately!
This is my second review because beyond the three fraudulent charges, they made with me, causing me to have to cancel my debit card, Iwas just notified that they are continuing to try to charge my old card with more scam charges! This company is the worst of the worst and needs to be taken DOWN!!
Waste of money
I signed up for a $1.00 trial run. The information provided was incomplete and outdated. I cancelled the subscription but was charged $29.16 five days later. Don't waste your money. This is a scam.
They've been taking 30 per month for…
They've been taking 30 per month for several months AFTER I called 800-267-2122.! and canceled, before the trial period was over. I didn't give it another thought until the bank called me. So, I called again and asked for a refund for all they had taken. First they tried to sell me another subscription! They said my money would be returned. It wasn't. I don't want to cancel my account, but I guess I have to, because they are still taking it every month. I called again. They gave me a site to email, saying take it up with them that way. That didn't work either. It's been 8 months now!
When I looked up family members, and myself, the info given was very old. Some of it was COMPLETELY FALSE! Especially the police records, which could cause many people a lot of unnecessary grief.
They are not the only ones, either. I've had similar issues with other search sites. I recommend not wasting your time, money, and a butt ton of aggravation on them. Try official government sites for info instead.
The most aggravating part, besides endless holds, transfers, and disconnects, is that I got screwed and there seems to be NOTHING I can do about it.
I don't have exact dates to share. It's been going on for too long.
GARBAGE WEBSITE!!
It doesn’t work and they refuse to accept my payment even though I know I have money on all three cards. I’m pretty sure they do that so you don’t receive their $1 offer because you only have 10 minutes to do it. It’s as if they are making sure you end up paying more. Find a different site to use.
They lie to you about being 24/7 and…
They lie to you about being 24/7 and lie about there site being free , this should be illegal yet some how it is not . They play games with you and think there untouchable, I pray someone walks in to there home office with a trench coat and duffel bag and does the world a favor . They deserve to go to hell for being a con artist and stealing money from the American people ;)

I ordered a personal review thru Google because it was free. After putting all info in they wanted a $1. So I put CC info in _ 3x it was Denied. Tried using my DC DENIED Also. Then got FRAUD ALERT FROM BANK ON CC. Had to call immediately. ?LONG STORY SHORT BOTH MY CC AND DC HAD TO BE CLOSED because they tried on CC 6x to get $29.17 & an amt less than$1 and 1x on DC. This happened on 2/22/25 early in am. SO no shopping for anything last weekend. Called them Monday and they couldn't care less. THE PEOPLE ARE FRAUDULENT AND HEARTLESS!!!!!! DONT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM OR YOULL SUFFER LIKE THE REST OF US. Thought they were safe because of Google connection - yeah right.

This is a very mis leading website do not fall into their trap of the $1 scam because you will be signed up and they will be taking your money $ 29.00 out of your account / cc

This company is a rip off it says a dollar at checkout but they charge u 6.95 and then 29.95 and never got free trial.I called and got the refund for 30 dollars back but still charged me 6.95 there deceiving people. Don’t use this company
They ban you but don't tell you why…
They ban you but don't tell you why other than to say that you have broken their rules
Fortunately, there are other. More professional similar services that don't arbitrarily ban you. Why would anyone want to use a service such as this? I would give zero stars if I could because that is what your service is worth
Typical time wasting scam.
Their website is typical for this kind of service. Although they did find the person I was looking for, they wasted 3 minutes pretending to look stuff up that is near instant just to make me feel invested so I would buy what they told me was free. Same as every other background check website.
This a Spam they took my money from my card without my authorization.
This a spam - they took me $26.24 from my card . Never authorized
Whoever gave this company more than one…
Whoever gave this company more than one star must work there. Do not use this site. I signed up for 1 dollar, and they charged my 8 dollars and in 3 days another 22. And I couldn't even find myself on there after putting in all the correct information. SCAM
Said there was results until I paid and then there were no results.
I did a search for someone and it said that there were results. Then I paid the dollar that check people.com wanted me to pay to access the information. After I paid then it said there was no results. They are a complete rip off do not use them they are scammers.
Beware Scam Spam BAM!
Beware -/ creepy Scam Spam. don’t give them any information.
I only wanted to check one person
I only wanted to check one person. I didn’t even find the information I wanted and was charged a dollar then 695 then 2995. I contacted them but they state it was a seven day free trial and then 2995 thereafter nonrefundable Even though I only checked one name. I did not find that to be clear from the website.
