Your customer Service staff is great and do their job very well!
This website was easy to use. Putting in information and vetting was easy. Good to know about this website in this day and age!
I paid for an upgrade and did not receive one. And I don't understand why the informaiton is not correct. Relatives were not right. I will not use this again unless you can tell me why things are not true.
I think this was a rip off. I did not obtain the information I needed, but I was asked to upgrade to get it!🙄
No help with what I needed. I was asked to subscribe for another month. I think I was ripped off because I didn’t get the information I needed and I was asked to upgrade my subscription to obtain the information I needed!😖
Because I thought it was legitimate. Turned out to be a rip off.
Ready To MoveOn for this and enjoy it for the next 30 days
I am extremely disappointed in your background searches. I paid $19.95 for such an inaccurate info on my spouse that neglected to include even basic info. I'm canceling. I will be posting reviews. It is very sad that PeopleWiz would scam in such a way.
I came across this Company when looking up a reverse phone number. So very displeased with the lack of integrity and transparency…. I’m canceling no doubt.
Incorrect info found multiple times and old reports are not updated. Also, cannot search by phone number like other "background check" companies. Cancelling this subscription.
Presented in a phone number search
The joy I got from all the good things that happened was a perfect example of what a great company you have.
Awesome customer service and great attention to detail my hats off to you all.
Your current info is lacking. I happen to know the person I'm researching. Your current address is wrong and when I run a check you say it doesn't exist and it does.
I was hoping that maybe you had updated info
To see if you had updated your info, but yiu have not
A person I am tracking moved May 16,2022. Not only is the address not current, neither is her last name.
Because I got an email that lead me to believe there was new info.
Update on someone
The information I got with the initial payment was helpful but I didn't expect to have to pay more within the app for a complete report.
It sounded simple to use to get a complete report.
I am constantly receiving emails that the report I viewed a few years ago has changes. Today I paid to view the report again the only information on the report is addresses. Nothing new, nothing more, nothing. I think this is a scam. Do not email me again!
I was immediately deleted from any further charges.
Crazy ex roommate. Thank God she still lives in OK.
This website is horrible. It doesn't show any of the proper correct information.
I thought I would try it out, but I absolutely don’t like this website. Horrible sorry
First, I wanted to pay the 14.99 and was charged 27.99. Not happy at all about that. Secondly, I received an email from you stating that there were changes in a particular report and that name was inside the email. To my dismay upon opening the report, I couldn't view everything because I had to upgrade which cost more money. Your information is not up-to-date. I could not find any information that was different from when I did the report the first time all the information is at least eight years old. Finally, I would like my money back.
I chose people with because of an email that was sent to me stating there were changes on a particular person’s report. That turned out to be a big negative and your report is eight years out of date.
I was sent emails saying that PeopleWhiz had new information and it was not new. It old information that they already had on there. VERY DISAPPOINTING
Did not refund my money in full
Well I just looked at what they had to show me. But didn't really find the right person cause I don't know the birthday.
I just didn't have all the info. on the person. That was the set back.
Just had to know the unknown.
I could have gotten what PeopleWhiz offered off social media and a WHOLE LOT MORE for FREE!
Couldn't believe there was NOTHING besides name and address revealed, which I already knew that much!
I had never heard of PeopleWhiz before and it sounded like it had a lot of information that would be useful to me from the reviews I had read is why I chose them.
Info on anyone was limited and useless
Look below for reasons already given
What a rip off
Saw it online and wanted to find out about old old friends.
But it gave me useless things and feew at it.
Are you kidding the info i got on my own was much more and I didn't have to upgrade! What a waste of time & money. Ridiculous to pay a fee get little to nothing then constantly bombard customer with upgrade! Scam
Thought they were better boy was I wrong!
I am not happy that once you have paid and signed they trick you and tell you that the information you will receive is limited and if you want the complete report, you need to pay even more.
I thought it would give me the information i needed and it did not
I was curious what it said about me. I can tell you I have traffic tickets on my record. The first thing that pops up to try and get me to purchase their monthly subscription is "Multiple Criminal Records Found". This site is NOT accurate until you pay for it. It entices and lies until you pay. I, like most people, will pay if there's something that looks slightly interesting. Don't believe everything you read on these sites. It also has that I lived in Montana. Wrong! Like so many other companies, they want your money. This site isn't worth it.
Tip for consumers:
Don't believe what you read
It was only one report. And you had to pay for it. They started taking money every month for a subscription I did not sign up for. After I called to cancel it they sent an email saying it will no longer renew once it expires! You can't even see your account on their site to know when that would be! I am going to have see my attorney to get out if this! Scary! Don't use them.
They sent me an email that '2 negative items MAY have been added'. Most of this information is wrong places I've lived or who I'm related to.
Then they want you to pay for it so they can scam more fake information about you.
My daughter is being stalked & we recently got a pfa. We are trying to locate the stalker & used People Whiz hoping to get more information. Not only didn't they provide anything we didn't already have, we actually found out more utilizing the internet for free on our own. I would highly recommend not using this site. Google had more information than these people.
Tip for consumers:
More information was provided obtained with one google search than was provided by this site. Ironically I was asked to rate the site before the report was issued.

Product was a report which was useless.
I only went on this site once, with a deal to get limited information for $1.00. You are now trying too charge my account for $29.99 for a service I didn't request or receive. Please reverse that transaction or I will contact Cash app!
I signed up for a month subscription because there was no trial. I was led to believe I'd get all of the information, but what they give you is very basic. It's all info that I can find online for free. If you want all of the information you have to upgrade to the premium membership for another $69.99. They don't tell you that a regular month-by-month membership is limited. Plus, I did a search on myself. Much of the info was wrong. For instance, they said I've never been married and I've been married twice. They didn't even get my legal name right! But I know it was me because enough information was correct.
Stay away from this company, I wish I had read the reviews before I threw away my money.
Tip for consumers:
It's a scam.

Month subscription
Non existent customer service… trying to locate family member… the information they provided was less than what is already available…… requested more money, and then the information they gave was all about me not the person I requested…after I tried to stop transactions and further payments…They bomb me almost daily with "update supposedly updates". What a scam… I cannot in good conscience recommend them at all!
