    They are crooks who make you spend a lot of time thinking that you would get free information and then at the end of about 20 mins they pop the surprise that there is a fee. Silly, Ill stick to Checkmate!

    Dear Jake,

    TruthFinder compiles hundreds of millions of available public records from several different data sources. We pay for all of the information we provide. Our billing details are prominently displayed before a customer decides to sign up for our services, and these terms can also be reviewed at any time in our Terms of Service. We do not claim to be a free service. In order to view reports, an active membership is required.

    Please do not hesitate to contact our customer service department at 855-921-3711 with any further questions. We are available to assist you during regular business hours, from 7:00am - 4:00pm Pacific time (10:00am - 7:00pm Eastern time) daily, including weekends. (Holiday hours may vary.)

    Sincerely,
    TruthFinder Support

    My search using Truth Finder did not return criminal information I already knew and no new information. This was a total waste of money.

We therefore encourage you to use a report as a starting point and perform any additional investigation you deem helpful for your purpose.

    Lastly, we have refunded this account back to the payment option used to enroll, and no further charges will be incurred. Please do not hesitate to contact our customer service department at 855-921-3711 with any further questions.

    Total scam...tricking you with language like "person" is on a government watch list or "You will be shocked to see the criminal or embarrassing information about said person", etc. If you aren't sure, just look up your own name first.

    Are you the truthfinder to find one person. Only had part of their criminal background as I know there is plenty more that happened in that same time frame. Very disappointed. Canceled yet still have ******* 24 days to use the site and now all of the sudden verification codes will never send to my phone so I can no longer use the site. Emailed company with no response. So now I've spent $25 and was only able to use the site one time.

    Truthfinder is charging my credit card erroneously for several months. They are unable to locate my account despite providing my email, charges & dates and credit card transaction transaction details. I have worked with ****** and ****** from Truthfinder and they seem to help for a minute and then stop helping after I provide the required information. I have emails to back all this up and have tried to resolve this without getting to the point of notifying the Better Business Bureau. Please if you are reading this Truthfinder, please reach out so we can rectify this.

    Fake loading sliders, anti-patterns to slow you down and an inability to remove your data makes this company amongst the worst of a bad lot selling your personal data.

    Dear ****,TruthFinders information is gathered from many public sources including local county courthouses, census bureaus, and other sources of public information. We do not create or add to the information we obtain. While we cannot remove specific records from a report, we do have the option to remove an entire background report from our site. The information obtained from a report is for personal use only.We have suppressed the report for you. The removal process takes between 24 - 48 hours to be completely removed from our website. Please do not hesitate to contact our customer service department at ************ with any further questions. We are available to assist you during regular business hours, from 7:00am - 4:00pm Pacific time (10:00am - 7:00pm Eastern time) daily, including weekends.

    This service has served me well. However on today my subscription did not work due to a technical issue with the provider. My issue is you did not send anything out about the service being down, causing me to have to telephone the provider and spend time with their high call volume , only to be told something that should have appeared at sign in. DO better, my time cost money. Thank you
