    Hello ****** *********, 

    This response is in reference to BBB Case #: 22409627.

    We have received and thoroughly reviewed your complaint, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

    To clarify, our service begins with a trial period, of which you have full access to our comprehensive database and unlimited searches. After the trial, if not canceled, the monthly subscription period begins and will bill each month going forward.

    After reviewing your account, it appears you signed up for our 3-day trial period on 1/8/2024. Since you did not contact us to cancel your account, you were billed for the monthly subscription of $29.16 starting on 1/11/2024. You were also billed for the $6.95 PDF bundle, a one-time charge that is self-selected upon checkout.

    We are pleased to inform you that we have accepted your refund request and have processed the refund. The amount of $269.39 has been credited back to your original payment method. Please allow a 3-5 business days for the refund to reflect in your account, as processing times may vary depending on your bank or card issuer.

    For your reference, the confirmation number for this refund is R11177386. Rest assured your account was cancelled as of 10/08/2024, meaning no further billing will occur.

    We will consider this complaint resolved. Should you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Support team at ************** or via email at **************************************.

    This company picked me because I did a local check on a person. This is the 3rd charge from this company. I thought I had canceled with the company. I see from other comments, I am not the first. This should be stopped ASAP. I will call my credit card company and try to stop any more charges.
