ConsumerAffairs operates independent of TruthFinder and does not offer background check services. Per the TruthFinder terms, you may not use this service or the information it provides to make decisions about consumer credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or any other purpose that would require Federal Credit Reporting Act compliance. TruthFinder does not provide consumer reports and is not a consumer reporting agency.

What is TruthFinder?

TruthFinder is a search tool and background check service that lets you find nearly anyone in the U.S. by name, address, phone number or email address.

You can use the service to reconnect with family and friends or to view a person’s criminal history. You can also run a report on yourself if you want to see what information is available about you online. You cannot use the platform to screen employees, domestic workers, tenants or people who provide professional services, including tutors or doctors.

TruthFinder searches millions of public records and social network data across the United States and compiles all the information into one report. The report includes items like:

  • Birth and death records
  • Possible relatives
  • Possible associates, friends, roommates or former romantic partners
  • Detailed location information (current and former addresses)
  • Contact information
  • Education and jobs
  • Social media profiles and dating profiles
  • Assets, including owned properties and driven vehicles
  • Criminal history, arrest reports and traffic records

Pulling a report on TruthFinder is anonymous, so no one will be notified when you perform a search or request a report for a particular person. The company has a free mobile app available in the Apple App Store or Google Play so you can make searches on the go.

TruthFinder cost

Requesting and receiving reports on TruthFinder requires a membership.

A one-month plan with TruthFinder costs around $28 per month. This fee lets users request unlimited standard background checks. Members can save money by purchasing a two-month plan for around $46. TruthFinder does not allow customers to pay for a single report, and you must contact the company’s member care department to cancel your membership.

TruthFinder FAQ

Is TruthFinder free?

Currently, there isn’t a free version or free trial of TruthFinder; however, Truthfinder offers a free search that provides preliminary information including age, location history and potential relatives. Most reputable background check services are not free.

How far does TruthFinder go back?

Results vary by person, but some reports go as far back as 15 years.

Can you do a background check with a phone number?

Yes. Through the company’s reverse phone lookup feature, you can search a phone number and receive relevant background information, including name, social media profiles, possible email addresses and locations.

Is TruthFinder accurate?

Yes. The more information you can provide, though, the more accurate your results are likely to be.

How do I cancel my TruthFinder account?

To terminate service, users must call the TruthFinder member care department.

Is TruthFinder legitimate?

TruthFinder is a great tool for connecting long-lost family members or friends, but the company charges a monthly fee and requires you to call the member care department to cancel. As long as the product isn’t used for malicious purposes, it’s a helpful resource that lets you find family, friends or former colleagues. We recommend TruthFinder for its extensive reports, accuracy and affordable pricing.

Just looked up myself and it's shocking how this company can get away with false info. It says next to my name "Possible criminal or traffic records associated with my name". This is completely false information.. Terrible company. I do not have a criminal record and if there is a traffic ticket it was so long ago they wouldn't have access. Terrible company and inaccurate information about myself....

TruthFinder response
We're sorry to hear that you had a bad experience on our site. Our data is obtained from public records and various other records sources. We are always working with our data providers to get the best information possible, but as our Disclaimer states, there are some cases in which the information may not be 100% accurate. This is due to variables like clerical errors, slow processing times, and discrepancies between states over what is considered “public record.” There also exists the possibility of false positives, and more than one individual with the same name and basic information may match up with many other records. We will contact you privately to work out a resolution.
Sincerely,

TruthFinder Support

    This "service" is a total waste of time and money. $29.95 down the toilet for exactly the same info I got off of Whitepages. Promises of "full report" including finances, assets, criminal record... and nothing but hard sell garbage about what you can have for "just a little more money". Anyone that posted a positive review about TruthFinder is probably a ficticious character posted by the hustlers that invented this "service". Congrats on a very sly scam.

    TruthFinder response

    We’re sorry you didn’t find the information you were looking for. We’re always working with our data providers to ensure that the information in our reports is as up-to-date and complete as possible, but sometimes the data just isn’t available to us. A senior member of our member care team will contact you privately to help resolve this issue as soon as possible.

    Sincerely,

    TruthFinder Support

    It did what I needed. Just do not need it in my business or personal life. Just DON’T NEED it for further use. I do appreciate the quick and easy way to cancel the subscription and the use until January 28, 2022. I would use it again if necessary.

    Needed to do a background check on a new neighbor who has been harassing me from the day she moved in. Found the info I was looking for and more! This was affordable and reliable! I highly recommend Truthfinder. What you don't know about someone could surprise you.

    My experience with Truthfinder was truly passed my expectations. All the information I was looking for was available and accurate. Also, forgot to cancel my subscription. I called and got immediate response. My subscription amount was returned and the problem was resolved in a matter of minutes. I'm amazed that their professionalism and also their courtesy to resolve in my problem. I would highly recommend them to anybody even family members.

    I spoke with David on 05JAN2022 regarding lack of access to my account. I had been locked out of my email account and could not open any accounts with my old email address. David, after identity verification, was able to help me gain access in five (5) minutes. We changed my email address to the current one and reset my passwords. It was the easiest time I have had changing settings to an account since this nightmare started. He was professional and polite.

    I was on vacation in November 2021 in Norman Oklahoma and I had exhausted all my attempts to contact a relative of mine, until I used Truthfinder. The site gave me 3 possible contacts with pictures; I was able to identify my relative by her picture since she had gotten married and her last name had changed unbeknown to me. I would have given Truthfinder 5 stars but the monthly cost is too high. The value is 5 stars.
