MyLife

As others have said, this is a scam. It has my address from 2007, and says I have a criminal history and a “score” of 1.7. All the listed family members are nobody I’ve heard of. Avoid these types of sites.

I signed up for the $1 three day trial. I looked at the worthless and incorrect information, and then cancelled the trial, which they make exceptionally difficult. But the website did display a page that said my subscription was cancelled. Then, three days later I was charged $55. I called customer service immediately and was repeatedly lied to by their representative. He then called me a list saying that if I had actually cancelled the subscription that it would have displayed a confirmation number, and without it there was nothing he could do. I did ended up using a curse word, and he threatened to hang up me...it was the word **. (I just wanted to clarify that it was not directed at the rep.) I repeated my point that this was a unauthorized charge and would be contesting it with my card company immediately after hanging up.

Mylife,'s profile had me associated with people I never heard of and listed me as having lived in places in which I have never been. My reputation was declared to be poor--10% below the national average! The site proclaimed that I have a court record (divorce court maybe??). And of course most people reading that wouldn't pay the fee to see the purported record, so might imagine anything! I'm a poor widow existing on SS and a pension, with only a mortgaged house and junker car as equity, yet was alleged to be worth $250,000--$500,000 with an annual income of from 70 to 79 thou! (I wish!).

Do not put much faith in the information provided by this website. I have found that their "reputation" score is based upon much false information. For instance, my family profile lists people I'm not even remotely related to and don't even know. Next, mylife.com lists previous known residences. Again, information is incorrect. Although mylife.com has a disclaimer that its information cannot be used for certain activities, there is no way that mylife.com can legally make or enforce that promise. Here's their disclaimer:

This company is publishing fraud information.. There is another women 4 years older than me with the same first and last name. We live in the same city right now. This company is stating her information and mine is the same. It says I have a long list of traffic crimes and I have never had a ticket my entire life. I contacted them to remove my information several times and they won't comply..

Full of lies and half truths. Got on a chat with the public relations person, Paublo. He said they got their information for 35+ other public sites and if I signed up they would help me clear up the discrepancies in these sites. I asked them to remove my information from their site and I got the reply "Can I help you with anything else?" IMHO they are blood sucking scum who make up sensationalism to sell information. My report was full of lies about court rulings against me. I am a retired CPA. I would not have been able to be a CPA if any of that was true.

This site states that I have a criminal record - a complete lie. They should be shut down. I believe they are trying to scare people into buying a subscription to remove information about themselves that is not true. Instead I called their 800 number and explained that I would have my attorney contact them regarding the slanderous information they published about me to the public without my permission, and Voila! - they removed my profile from their system.

One day, I look up the balance on my fiance's SSDI DIRECT EXPRESS CARD. I had NUMEROUS transactions from MyLife. I immediately start calling without success so, being stubborn, The EMAIL BATTLE BEGAN REGARDING FRAUD, REIMBURSMENT AND LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM. That started in January of 2021. Today, June 3, 2021, I go into MY PERSONAL EMAIL... LOL OMG IT'S NOT FUNNY, I have a renewal notice for myself from MyLife saying I need to do nothing, they will automatically renew my subscription! I am so beside myself, here I am. If there is anyone, out there on this ConsumerAffairs page that can guide me to a outstanding attorney to sue this company please.... Email me, find me on FB anything. I refuse to let these ignorant, unprofessional, money hungry jerks win. No way, not now, not by me! Thank you for reading. Penny **. Maine.

They keep taking unauthorized payments out of my checking account even though I cancelled my subscription. To top it all off, I'm not even getting the premium service in exchange! They just took another 44.95 for 3 months of future service I won't be getting! I'm sure it's perfectly legal in today's world. They NEED TO BE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!!!

I signed up to do a background check on a date. To see how accurate the information was, I ran a few friends and relatives. Most of their information was incorrect, except for things you can find online such as employer or address. If you know how to use LinkedIn or the phone book, you can do this. One said a cousin had a criminal record (it turned out to be a speeding ticket). It said my date was married (he is not). I cancelled the "free" trial and took a screenshot. I'm sure you can guess what happened next; I was charged for "renewing" my monthly subscription. So I called the customer service line, armed with my cancellation screenshot and email confirmation that I had cancelled. They said I had done "too many" searches, and that the "free" trial is only for one search. Lesson learned.
