1 star**************** was completely useless when I emailed them that someone used their website to try to find me to harm me. They sent the same scripted message repeatedly that they couldnt understand what the problem was I was trying to bring up. I repeatedly asked for their (very thankfully) incorrect info to be removed from the website, and got a different associate that somehow wasnt able to read each and every time.Intelius.com

1 starFalse advertisement. They claim no fees, 100% free, but after gathering consumer's personal information it takes about 10 minutes to produce the supposed report which in the end is not free. You need to pay for the report. None of these "free online phone lookup" companies are upfront about their chargesIntelius.com

Hi ****,We understand how disruptive frequent notifications can feel, and we appreciate you letting us know. Weve gone ahead and disabled push notifications and pop-ups tied to your activity, and also unsubscribed your information from marketing communications. These updates should take effect right away, though it may take up to 24 hours to fully clear.Because these alerts appear to be push notifications on your phone, its also a good idea to double-check your browser notification settings to ensure theyre turned off. Sometimes these can be enabled accidentally while browsing.If anything else comes up or youd like us to take another look, our support team is here to help at ************ Intelius Customer SupportIntelius.com
