The rep was very helpful. She help me located the account and she explained to me everything I asked and was very patient and understanding. Even when she answered the phone she was very pleasant and listened to everything I had to say.

I have had some success in finding a person but the information was not up to date. Your receptionists have all been very professional and nice. I still use the app when I need to look someone up. It serves the purpose but phone numbers and addresses are almost all outdated.

I have used US Search quite a lot over the years, have found a lot of my old Military friends and have had great reunions. I subscribed recently to find an old friend in Florida, no luck with phone number or an address, take into consideration the hurricane had recently hit Florida and completely wiped out the area I was searching for, I subscribed for that search. Called customer service and did a cancelation of my subscription. The customer service was great, friendly and answered all my question. Thanks again, Happy customer.

I misplaced my folder for this account. Consequently, I lost access to my password and username. The folks in customer service were most helpful and I was able to get everything back. I was also able to confirm the site does not sell email addresses.

I had checked save password-auto. For some reason it suddenly doesn't. I just tried NINE times to do a new one, and each time it would not take. You are NOT THE CIA! What is the point? All you can do is LOOK AT INFO, not change anything. Your site is such a pain!!!

The girl was polite and helpful. I signed up by mistake and she said she would cancel for me. She was friendly and seemed to be knowledgeable and always asked permission to open my file and send the survey.

Information sketchy at best. Got better information on other websites for free. Cost is too high for the information received. Did a good job tracing nearest relatives. Property ownership records inconclusive. I just wasn’t happy with the quality of the presentation. Upgrades were costly and also inconclusive. Not a good investment.
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.

So far the address search has been more informative than the "people" search. The entire state being included in the Stats of a specific area is distracting. Some of the content runs into the sidebar and is unreadable. However I did find the information very helpful and easy to navigate.

The search tool was good. I used it for our class reunion and was able to locate all but 3 people from our class. Some of the addresses or phone numbers were not the most recent - so I just kept on trying other addresses that were listed. Thanks.
We’re sorry to hear you were unable to obtain information on certain people. Our data providers are always updating their information, but some state and local governments do not release their records to the public, or they may not update their databases annually, which can create gaps in our data.

I received so much detail for the best price. I will definitely use this in the future for my personal safety. I used it to make sure I wasn’t being scammed by someone. I had to make sure they were really who they said they were before I gave them my money for a product. Thank you for easing my mind. I fully trust them now.

Great search tool! Pricing is affordable and easy to use. You are gonna need to pay 3.99 for each feature which is much cheaper than the other sites I've been to. The amount of data that is provided matches the other sites and seems at least this far to be accurate. Anyway, monthly service is reasonably priced. I am very happy with finding this site.

This report seems to have all of the information that I'm looking for and need in order to verify this person's location. The report provides addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and contacts. This information is valid in reaching the person being searched.

For the past six months, I have been looking for missing classmates so that they can be informed of an upcoming 50 year reunion. I have used your search engine and was able to find over 400 graduates and will be sending them an invitation next months. I'm glad that your site contained current information and was easy to use. Thanks.

I was incredibly impressed with US Search. I was able to find information here that didn’t surface through any other background search. Keep this one in your back pocket. The individual I was concerned about is probably still scouring the internet trying to find the leak. I highly recommend this service,. It was worth the money in my situation. Additionally, their customer service is amazing. They are knowledgeable, prompt, and extremely helpful. The representative I spoke with to cancel my subscription absolutely made my day, quickly solving my issue. It’s nice to know this company values quality and service over a quick buck. I anticipate that this way of business will take this company to the top for the long haul.

Great service. Never let me down. The only issue I have IS NOT with the searches or reports, but with the login. It used to be simple from any device. Now I have to be in my computer to use it because I do not have all my email accounts in my phone.

Well I was being scammed by a romance scammer. That tried and tried to get me to cash a check and send a Apple gift card. But I've read too many articles on this subject so I didn't send them a dime nor gift cards. Thank you for letting me know. I was correct on my feeling I was trying to be scammed. I will recommend your service to friends and family.

I would like to give the highest customer service assistance rating to Ms. Alex, who did a SUPERB job of walking me thru, by phone, how to correct an error on my part during my initial subscription phone number verification which resulted in my having to do a verification code each time I logged into my account, plus she also answered my call right away to boot! Wish all customer service everywhere could be like her! -Thank you for your time and for this feedback opportunity, sincerely, Lee **.

This has been by far the most informational site I have come across yet. I've tried many others and have never gotten as much information as this site gives. Amazing and awesome is the best way to describe it. I would recommend trying this site first or if you're still looking for some information that you just can't seem to find anywhere else.

US Search is my go-to source when I need to look up information. I really like the many ways to search and how easy it is to purchase the information once I am confident that I have found the correct match. I like that I don't have to buy a monthly membership, but have the option available if I need it.

I chose USSearch because of what I can only assume was a purchased phony website review of their company. It rated higher than BeenVerified and since I used that for four months with satisfactory results, I thought I would try the higher rated company. What a mistake. I canceled within an hour after not even a Facebook page came back and the person I was researching has a public profile. He has an extensive criminal background as does his wife and all that USSearch could kick back was an address which I've had for two years. Do not waste your money with this company. I've opened a dispute with my credit card company for a refund. I wish I had checked ConsumerAffairs before wasting my time and energy. This company's service isn't worth a quarter let alone $29.95.
Hi Kay,
