Your profile said all the stuff you will get with the membership but then come to find out you have to upgrade your service to get all the information i expected to receive after paying for my membership. I will be canceling the service.

I'm going through your website and from what I can see, it's just general information and not specific enough from my experience and that's the reason I cancelled my membership within one hour, be well and always stay safe Joseph Joey 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Okay:(

Reason I chose this business:

I'm always receiving pop-up ads from your website.

Waited so long for them to prepare a report that contained very little information beyond names, address, and phone number (old land line)? I'll never use this again.

I got a lot of information about people I wasn't looking for and very little on the name I did enter. Repeatedly got notifications to get more information if I would upgrade (pay more)!

Reason I chose this business:

To find out how much information was out there.

There were some facts I knew to be true yet they were not identified in the report (i.e. Marriages, divorces, criminal activities). Was a waste of money.

Totally worthless. I was directed there by Norton to find out where my name was listed. $27.99 later appx I didn't find out anything. There were a bunch of others with my name but nothing with my information.

Reason I chose this business:

I was directed there by Norton. I thought I had to get the service as part of Norton’s investigation into my hacking problem.

1) the search engine took much more time than other sites I've used, 2) the messages about my criminal record that I saw at the start of the search were completely untrue, 3) the alleged relatives I had were not my relatives

Reason I chose this business:

Just trying another search

PeopleWhiz is an excellent background check service that delivers comprehensive and detailed reports on individuals. The platform is user-friendly, making it easy to navigate and access a wealth of information, including criminal records, contact details, and social media profiles. The reports are thorough and well-organized, providing valuable insights quickly. While it may be a bit pricier than some alternatives, the depth and accuracy of the information make it well worth the investment. Highly recommended for anyone needing reliable and detailed background checks.

Reason I chose this business:

It was more informative than the competitive options.

Reason I chose this business:

Because I wanted to review my info and to stop people from getting it
