Spokeo Reviews

They tell you it's 95 cents to do a search then they want to charge you over $20, I believe it was $29, for a subscription that is hard to cancel. Like many websites this is just a ploy to make you spend your money needlessly. This is nothing more than a scam to steal your money through a subscription that's hard to cancel but in the end they still get your $29 instead of the offered surge price of $0.95. I always steer clear of businesses like this because it's obvious they're trying to scam your money.

I would give them less then one star but I can't. They are crooked as hell and nothing but a scam site. They don't give you anything. When you do buy one of their background or info spreads it's worthless knowledge achievable with a standard Google search. Do not let these crooks get your card info at all.

The free trial gave me almost no information. The information I was looking for was more money but you don't find that out until you get to the page telling you almost nothing. Then they charge you $30. for a subscription. The only notice I received of any charge is shown. And yes, I do believe this is a scam.

I used Spokeo to find someone who was stealing from my family. I paid for the free trial to see what I could find. I also did searches of people I know, and I know all their correct information. I was surprised of how much information, including my own, that was all incorrect. So much old info like addresses, phone numbers, even other states where I have lived and others I know, who do not live at any of the addresses I found. So disappointed, so the person I was searching for, how would I know the info is even correct? So I canceled my subscription, and then I was charged $30.00 for the month. I can't rely on them to provide the right info. I was only refunded a partial amount that they charged me. I wouldn't recommend spokeo at all. There are many other sites to choose from, so if you are looking for updated information on people, I'd suggest using a different service.

Terrible scam website. I paid 95 cents for ONE thing I was looking for.. ended up getting charged almost $30 to my card at 2 in the morning mind you.. I tried to log into my account to cancel the apparent subscription but suddenly, oh? They can't find my account. Convenient, huh? Thank God my bank flagged it as fraud and closed my card.

What a great app and would be even better if you had a free trial. I really appreciate what you are doing for people who are being lied to. You make it easier to get information from the internet and I appreciate that.

You can tell how much of a scam a company is by their deceptive tactics used in getting your business. I signed up to get a single phone number and ended up with $29.56 taken out of my account. But the real deception came when trying to "cancel" my "subscription". When they bury any links, you know it's a scam. I went searching on the site to get a receipt. The search failed. It is a website only focused on selling their cache of data - not providing information to the "customer" about their account. The 1 result I got on my search was useless and wrong.

I’ve used this site multiple times against my better judgment, because every single time the same thing happens. You try to cancel your subscription and you can’t do it on the website or it says you don’t have an active account. You reached out to customer care the day after you get the trial to cancel it and they can’t find your account either. But best believe after seven days they will charge your bank account without a doubt never fails.

It a COMPLETE LIE. It says FREE. It is not free. LIARS. They make you wait a long time, when you were promised FREE, and then at the end they try to charge you. I do not recommend that you deal with LIARS.

I would give 0 stars if that were an option. Paid $0.95 to look up a phone number which was not correct. They then charged my Paypal acct. $29.95. I had to dispute the charge and cancel my credit card for what? NOTHING
