    Accurate is the worst background company I have had to deal with. Everyday they need something, you send it to them and they don't update your file. Then they send your new employer email stating you are not responding to their request. It's enough to make me not want to work for a company that depends on this company for background checks.

    This company does not even bother to report accurate information. They do not do a thorough background check which can lead to false discrepancies on your background check. They fetch people from overseas to complete the background check so that they can skip out on costs. This leads to inaccurate reporting and a lack of accountability.

    I am experiencing a significant delay in the completion of my background check, which is preventing me from starting my new job. Despite having a clean record and previous background checks that were completed within four days, I have been waiting for almost three weeks without any updates or an estimated time of completion. This delay is causing financial hardship as I am unable to work and rely on this job opportunity. I kindly request your urgent attention to resolve this matter and shut this company down.

    They should be ashamed to call themselves Accurate by any means. We need to file a class action lawsuit against them for loss of wages. I had to use them as the last step to getting a new job. They totally botched my Background and listed a driving case as open that was closed since 2020. The system they use is obviously flawed. I had just went through two other background checks one for my health/life insurance license( finger prints and **** and one for another company temp position. I am now licensed agent and am working the temp position. Unfortunately it seems i miss out on the Permanent position. This company was tasked with running my info and totally screwed that up. They should not be allowed to be in business.

    Been waiting nearly a month on a background check to begin a job. This company has no regards for the economics of it's unwilling consumers. I've lost the original opportunity I had and the entire process has thrown me into economic distress.

    I'm being forced to use this company for my background check by a new employer. I can obtain a background check from my local police station within 30 minutes. For some reason, this company takes a week (if not longer) to accomplish what I can get done in 30 minutes. **************** is a joke, might as well not even exist because they aren't good for anything except regurgitating some weak, standardized talking points that have been passed on to them by some unqualified member of management. I'm having second thought about working for my future employer if they are doing business with such an inept and incompetent company such as "Accurate".

    Accurate is the worst background check company I have ever dealt with, and I plan to escalate my complaint to regulatory agencies, for all the reasons stated below. Luckily, my company accepted my complaint, and went forward with me, but I was distraught over what I was put through. It took me hours to get my info submitted to them, because their website kept timing out and I had to resubmit my info over and over. Then they asked me to fill out Word doc forms instead and upload them. Because I had a long work history, and they could't be bothered to verify, they then asked me for W2s from 10 years back.
