My experience was excellent. I found all the information I was seeking. It was all updated and the app very user friendly. I would recommend this app to anyone in need. I would not hesitate to use again if the need should arise. Thank you.
Hi Tonya,
We're glad to hear you found the information you were looking for and enjoyed using the app. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!
It is a good website to search someone you don't know much. You will find some information you surprised. However if you are searching someone you know, you want to find some accurate information, this is not work. A lot of information is not up to date, like phone number, address, property. I searched myself too. The address has several errors. I have never lived in another state, they have 2 addresses are in another state. The phone numbers has the only very old ones. Even one personally known guy, his information is very old. I hope BeenVerified can work with the phone companies, make their phone number up to date.
I believe if I simply paste a copy of the feedback that I sent to Been Verified, the purpose of this message will be obvious. Here it is: Hello, Just a quick note to let you know how great my customer service was today. I called for the purpose getting a refund for an automatic monthly payment that I didn't want to happen because I intended to cancel my account. I talked to Nakeisha, who quickly and smoothly identified my account, confirmed the specific transaction and politely agreed to get my refund taken care of. This kind of professional customer service is why I would choose your company first if I ever wanted a Background checker in the future. Thanks!
Hello Joseph.
Thank you so much for providing feedback regarding your experience. We are so happy to hear that all of your expectations and needs were met with the professionalism our customers deserve. We hope to see you again should the need arise!
I bought a monthly subscription for this service for my job. I work in a local homeless shelter and it has helped me track down some of my clients' family members, research properties and assist my clients in understanding the need for honesty when I am assisting them. I even used this for my own personal use in researching a home that I was renting, and one that I was looking at purchasing. I was impressed by the information I could find on this. I kept this service for about 7 months when I decided to cancel it, because I had a job change.
Probably the most amazing thing to me was how EASY it was to cancel it. I was delaying canceling for the longest time, because I thought I'd have to spend hours on the phone. But it was a quick automated system. I just canceled my subscription a few moments ago and I had a monthly subscription, so I am unsure if it will go through, but if it does I would highly recommend this company to any and all of my friends and co-workers (in fact some of my co-workers used it and liked it as well). It's a decent background system that has an app and a website, and it is relatively inexpensive. I am still blown away at how easy the cancellation process was, almost so much so that I want to give this place more of my business.
Hi Micha,
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are happy to hear that you had a great experience with the site as well as the cancellation process. We truly appreciate your recommendation to others and look forward to seeing you again in the future!
I do not understand why he has bad magazines. This system is wonderful. We had a missing guy in the United States for 7 years, we tried all the means to find it until I found this application. Fortunately, he gave us all the information, including that he was already dead. Even though it was difficult to attack this application, the direction coincided with the data that the family had. We were able to verify that it was the. The use policies are clear about the information they give and that you have to pay more if you want more information. The customer service has been excellent, I recommend this application.
Hi Derly,
We appreciate your kind words. It's a comfort to know we could offer our help to locate the information you needed. Thank you for sharing your feedback and please keep us in mind for any future searching needs.
Participated in the 5 day trial with BeenVerified to view my report for accuracy. 80% of the information was old (which was good for me). However I was seeking a background search tool to help locate/contact my biological family. Decided not to keep the membership for that reason but was past the 5 day period. Satisfied with the way they handled my request for the refund even though I canceled late. Though this site didn't seem to be a good fit for my needs I do recommend others use this tool as a beginning in their search.

I tried this site in an effort to investigate what may be out there in cyberspace related to myself. What I found was 4 out of 5 phone numbers I tried were wrong. I keyed in several family members and friends which are numbers I knew only to find out they were all wrong EXCEPT mine. Additionally the name was the ONLY thing reported to my phone number. Absolutely no additional information which they claim to seek was available even though I am a municipal employee which is public knowledge and several colleges I have attended did not show up in educational history. If you are thinking about using this service, DON'T. Run like the wind and find another site. This one was an absolute waste of keystrokes, time and my $1.00 trial membership.
Hi Michael,
I'm sorry to hear you ran into any inaccurate information in your reports.
Please be assured that your account was canceled and you were issued a refund of $1.00. The refund was processed immediately on our end, however please note that it may take a few days for the refund to be reflected on your bank statement.

Satisfied with the refunded money for the purchase but buyers should be aware that some investigation on their own goes a long way before purchasing from this company. The refund for the purchase still doesn't change the fact that the information provided was strictly from an internet search, and half of it was mixed up with the wrong person, because the person it mixed it up with was me, since I share the same first and last name as the family member I was investigating.
Purchased a background check report from BeenVerified looking for information about an ex-husband that was relevant to a coming court case. After purchasing the report services for 26.89. I received the report on the person I was looking for and upon reading the report I found that not only did it mix up the person with another family member on almost every point, but in order to find out the information I was looking for, they were charging an additional monthly fee for "premium services" and locked you out of all other information that would actually be included in a real background check. The only information they actually gave me was pulled from a Google search, showing contact information, social media and last known address which was pulled from phone records. It included criminal records which can easily be pulled from a public records search on any state website as well for free. Do not waste your money on this service.
Hi Robert,
I'm sorry to hear you were unable to find what you were looking for. To offer further assistance, could you tell us what type of information you were hoping to find?

Resolution In ProgressBeenverified.com is completely bogus. Searched for my own number...returned a result for somebody in Kentucky. I've never been to Kentucky in my life, and my area code is in the Austin, Texas area. Don't give these scammers your money.

I contacted and paid this company and after they were not able to supply me with what I was looking for, I sent them an email to stop, their service to me, and asked them not to bill me again because I would not be using their service again. This was over a month ago, and they just took money from my bank again on 6/10/2019. I do not suggest anyone use this company. I plan on reporting them to the GA and Consumer Report and possibly sue them for the return of my funds to my bank. Lillie **
Hi Lillie,
The account under your sbcglobal email was closed back in 2016, we do not show you were recently charged on this account. Do you believe you have a second account under a different email? If so, please provide that email address and the amount you are seeing billed?
We look forward to hearing from you.

Resolved outside ConsumerAffairsI called this company because our number appeared on a music producer's phone listing who recently had a documentary released about him. We have been receiving dozens of calls a day asking about him. They informed me they could not remove the number from their site. So our options are to deal with the phone calls that are coming in at all hours 100% because of this site or change our number.
Hi Doug,
Thank you for reaching out.
We can opt out his listing from our people search meaning his name, address, phone number, etc would be removed.
If he would like his listing removed, please use this link: www.beenverified.com/optout
Or have him provide his name, city and state, and age we have listed to support@beenverified.com so we can locate it and remove it.
Additionally, could you provide the date and time you called regarding this so we can look into your customer service experience?
Thank you,BeenVerified Customer Care
There was no new information available that I had not already gotten off the internet myself for free. Some of what I found was either incorrect, outdated or missing information that I was looking for and the reason I purchased the product. Don't waste your time with this company. Do the research yourself and save your money!

I used this service to look into a friend of mine and the information they gave did not seem trustworthy and was completely vague. Not worth the 27$!!! Was a complete waste of money and time to be honest.

The site literally doesn't have HALF of the people I wanted to look up (while they're available for their competitors) and the information isn't even accurate. I paid twenty something dollars to find a report full of fake social media accounts that don't even exist/are unofficial accounts (for famous celebs). Anyways, ain't paying again and might just give my money to their competitors.
Hi Lee,
Please be assured that your account was canceled and you were issued a refund of $22.86. The refund was processed immediately on our end, however please note that it may take a few days for the refund to be reflected on your bank statement.

My experience is terrible. I contacted them but they are absolutely no help whatsoever. I was misguided, I feel as if it's false advisement. They had a subscription for 15 dollars so I purchased it. It never showed me a total to confirm until it was already too late. I was charged 44.58. I feel a bit robbed at this point. I cancelled it, it's useless anyways. The information on the site is terrible and they want you to keep paying for upgrades. Doesn't give you good information. I will never do this again!
Hi Jassmine,
I'm sorry to hear about your experience.
Please be assured that your account was canceled and you were issued a refund of $44.58. The refund was processed immediately on our end, however please note that it may take a few days for the refund to be reflected on your bank statement.
We offer a summary on our sign up pages to show the amount that will be billed upfront but we appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve as a company.
Thank you,BeenVerified Customer Care
A resolution was reached the same day as my request for cancellation was submitted. My instincts lead me to believe that any other company that provides a similar service will likely not offer any more information than was available through the BeenVerified reports and my personal experience is not indicative that BeenVerified is a poorly operated service. I will consider this a learning experience and am appreciative a refund was offered in this situation.
I signed up for the 3 month subscription at a promotional price of $44.58 to use the service to look up old friends and myself. I am pretty savvy on how to search free information and public records, and thought there would be more benefit to the service. It was very disappointing and vague and inaccurate in some of the areas where I already knew certain information. There were offers to purchase more detailed information, but after purchasing the reports and receiving very little information, I would not trust the additional purchased detail would be more in depth. Cancelling immediately and feeling letdown and silly for paying for this service, wishing I could get a refund.

I opted-out 9 months ago, as their website promises, they removed my personal data(s). However, I have requested for months now, that they totally and completely strike my name from their website. They now use my name as part of some ad, for the sake of garnering clicks. All I want, that which I deserve, is that they completely and utterly remove my name from their website in totality.
Hi,
We would like to look into to this for you but we do not show an opt out request made with that email. Could you provided the email address you used? Or could you send the screenshot of the ad you are referring to?
Thank you,BeenVerified Customer Care
I searched myself, and found a lot of errors. Wrong: addresses, emails, family members, social websites, financial, etc. There's an option on each piece of information to notify them to correct it. However, it's been weeks and all the wrong information is still wrong! I have been looking for work for a couple months now, and see that over half of the information is wrong and is likely detrimental to my employment search efforts if an employer uses all this wrong information as a pre-interview weeding out process.

You can get a better check for 95 cents. The information is vague and doesn't invoke trust in their data accuracy. I used it for checking to see if known acquaintance would be a trustworthy roommate and if there were any red flags. The report offered only info I could have acquired in Spokeo or People Search, FREE!! The court records HAHAHA, so left number. No court referenced offense statement. Save your money!!

Joined almost a year ago to look up ONE person. Immediately canceled per their directions so was paying for ONE month. Information was worse than on other search sites. Skimpy. Inaccurate. They never stopped billing me. Online they said my email address was wrong. Had to call and email was ok. All confused at this company except about monthly recurring billing when you requested cancellation. So instead of a small fee I paid hundreds!
Hi Nancy,
Upon further review, we show you have two accounts.
We show you email us requesting to cancel one account but do not show a request to cancel the second.
Please be assured you were refunded for a total of $182.88.
Thank you,BeenVerified Customer Care
He was wonderful! He was knowledgeable, kind, patient, understanding, and quick. I appreciated working with him to fix my problem I called in about. He is a great worker and a great example of wonderful customer service. Keep him around.
Hi Negesti,
Thank you for taking the time to share your customer service experience speaking with Chris. We are pleased to hear he could quickly and kindly offer his assistance to you. We will definitely give him kudos for his hard work! Thank you again!
BeenVerified Customer Care
I currently use their services sometime over two years ago, and was charged a fee for said services. I was unaware there was a monthly recurring fee for their services being charged to an account that I rarely use. This went on for over two years and I never received any communication from them whatsoever. When I went to cancel they told me they would reduce my last month's bill by nine dollars because I was canceling and for the inconvenience. Run for the hills, this place is a scam.
Hi Sandy,
I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience. All of our subscriptions are recurring. We let you know on the sign-up page that each subscription package will automatically renew until you elect to cancel. We also add our name and number to our billing descriptor in case our customers have any questions.
We attempted to refund your account but came across an error. Can you confirm if you have disputed these charges or closed that account?
If you have any additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Thank you,BeenVerified Customer Care
I signed up for this looking for information about a person. I found more info than they have.... on Google... for FREE! Everything they had in the report was at least 5 years old so I decided to look myself up. What a joke! I apparently do not exist, except with a married name I only used for 2 years - 20 years ago! I called to cancel and get a refund because their information is pathetic. I was told that the information they have is gathered by other sources and they are not responsible for it. I told them to get better sources that are more current than 5 years. A waste of time and money, do not bother. But I did get my money back. :)

Clicked link offering free background check, after a number of questions and 5 mins they generate a report and want you to sign up for membership to obtain it. Cost is over $20, very misleading. You should put cost of service upfront so consumers can make informed decision prior to entering information required to obtain report.
Hi John,
We do not have a link for a free trial. Our aim is to make the service as easy to use and affordable as we can. There are costs associated with obtaining the data and integrating that information into easy-to-read reports. Payment is required to sign-up for BeenVerified.
If you're interested in trying out the service, you can access a special $1 trial offer here: https://www.beenverified.com/lp/32fc4f/5/subscribe
Or you may want to check out our app for the iPhone or Android. The app is free to install (from the App store and Google Play store). With our apps, you can run unlimited people searches to get contact info and more, for free and you have the option of upgrading with a subscription to unlock criminal records and more.
I hope that helps.
Thank You,BeenVerified Customer Care
Thought you wouldn't be charged if you tried out their website but you need to read it carefully you will automatically get charged after your trial without ANY WARNING. They just charge your card. I wasn't impressed with the site and regret ever using it. You can get some info from other sites like LinkedIn and others. Should of come here first. I normally look for reviews first but didn't this time. Big mistake!!
Hi Greg,
We are sorry to hear about your experience. We do let you know that our plans are recurring until you elect to cancel your account.
Please be assured that we have cancelled and refunded your account in full.

I was trying to locate relatives in my same state that I lost contact with after our parents died. All the phone numbers were no longer in service. I tried to get through to Hotmail, Gmail, AOL, etc... but those links seem to be outdated also. I am very disappointed after 3+ hours of searching the info provided for $22. Most of the additional useful info costs extra, as does getting a pdf version sent to your email box. Info such as workplaces, education, etc. which could verify, if you are looking at the correct person. I would not recommend this company. I will cancel ASAP. I wish I had read the reviews for BeenVerified more closely, before not after, I tried to use this service.

I logged into this service a total of 2 times in October of 2016. I did not realize it was a monthly recurring subscription service. They have charged me over 500 dollars to date. The company informed me policy dictates they can only refund 4 months. That means I was charged over 200 dollars per log in! This is insanity. In addition I never received any emails or notices of billing after my initial "subscription". They are perfectly happy in fact overjoyed to allow people to continue paying who don't realize they even have the service. When I emailed the services department I received the same mass email they send to everyone they have taken to the cleaners.
I asked some pretty basic questions to BeenVerified in order to make a determination for our company whether their services would be exactly what we needed. Needless to say it didn't get very far as I asked about docket numbers to which their response was, "When you mention docket numbers, are you referring to criminal records?" A background reporting agency should know what a docket number is referencing. It's a scam, any good review on here is most likely fake. They pull their records from free sources on the web and package it up for a nice price for you.

To judge the accuracy of the tool, I searched myself. It had half of my addresses, potential family members, and social media wrong. And it shows I own 3 cars I have never seen before, but doesn't list a single one that I actually do. And there is nowhere to try to submit corrections. I won't be using this service again.

I just needed to use this one time. None of the information is anything I couldn’t find. Waste of money and time. I tried to cancel and now they want to charge me $37 to cancel. Ridiculous! Hoping whoever is reading this can take care of it for me.
Hi Kristi,
We are sorry to hear that. There is no charge to cancel an account with BeenVerified. The account was previously cancelled and we have issued you a $1.00 refund.
If you need anything else, please let us know.
Thank You,BeenVerified Customer Care
Much like other reviews on here I signed up once in 3/18 for an employee background. Got little to no information I couldn't have found out in public records search. Canceled the account and as that was an OLD credit card didnt' see the next statements... They've been charging 22.86 ever since to my NEW credit card which I did not authorize. Called to complain... NO REFUNDS. Guy was a jerk. Will NEVER use their so called service again. How they can charge a different credit card (issued by same bank) without prior authorization is something I will be addressing with Bank of America.
Hello Amy,

BeenVerified expert review by Ben Mannes
