Instant Checkmate Reviews

Excellent service! Thorough background check and information. Polite and helpful assistance. If I need future background checks for any reason, I will use Instant Checkmate because it is by far the best of four services I have used. I recommend this service to others needing background checks for any purpose.

This site was first class, easy to use and very detailed. I would very much recommend it!! I found the agent Tanner to be polite, knowledgeable and it was refreshing. I am glad I chose Checkmate and it was a valuable tool.

I used this many times before closing my business in Oct 2018. Was very satisfied. It was important to me as a sole proprietor to know whom I was doing business with either buying or selling. HONESTY IS ALWAYS THE BEST POLICY.

I was looking for background information on 2 people. I put in the available information I had and Instant Checkmate came back with 40 pages of information on both people. They helped me locate family members I had not seen or heard from in over 35 years!!

Excellent service. I appreciate the care we received from Ruthy who helped on a refund for unintended service charges. She went above and beyond to help. We really appreciate the extra care including interaction with her supervisor to assist with our problems.

Background check in reference to my son's criminal history and when and where it happened so as to be fully aware of how he is doing since we no longer have contact with him. Due to unforeseeable circumstances we are not able to contact him or maintain a family relationship at this time.

The representative that helped me was very professional and understanding. I expected calling to cancel and get a refund would be much more difficult but she made the process stress free! I will definitely return to Instant Checkmate for any future needs.

I called to question a charge (to a credit card I don't use anymore (but is still activated)) from Instant Checkmate (IC). I need to say upfront the the person I talked to (Lindsey (sp?)) was very courteous and helpful. That being said, although it was my responsibility to notice, I guess, I would've appreciated it if IC had a program in place to help with these "double accounts" (again, I take responsibility).

Thank you to Jasmine, who was most helpful and patient with my concerns about my account. I wish my total experience with Instant Checkmate had been as positive as this final contract with your telephone representative. But, due to illness, I have been paying for this account unknowingly since its inception, but not using it, which is very distressing.

Agent followed by instructions and cancelled automatic billing. Competent and pleasant to work during the call. He worked with supervisor to review and correct the account and billing and was knowledgeable and efficient. This review is from a verified customer.

On 4-22-21 I was very fortunate to receive one if not the finest examples of assistance from a gifted professional customer service representative named Marisa. She combines her natural instincts with subject matter knowledge to quickly adjust her tempo of verbal exchange. Without patronizing me as a sick 73 year old customer exhibiting a need for slower, easy to understand and patient dialogue, she soon satisfied all of my questions. Additionally, she also educated me about, who, what, where and why explanations for my own further problem solving. Having that very important self confidence is extra work for so very kind of her to empower me.

I looked into finding my husband's children. I was surprised when this site came up. After looking into it I found it very easy and informative. The download PDF was giving me some problems but I was able to get the reports I needed.

It was a lot of fun doing this. And the service was great!! I was able to look up a lot of people I had been wondering about and this service allowed me to do this. Thank you Checkmate! I would recommend this service to anybody.

The lady, is it Cecile? Was excellent. Stayed with me while I tried to log on and change the method of payment. What was especially good is she stayed on with me. Apparently your site was knocked off by Apple.

Young young lady just helped me cancel my membership. She was extremely pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable. She made my day just because she had a happy voice and she was very pleasant. I can’t remember her name but if you could look her up she deserves a pat on the back!! She’s awesome. Thank you.

I searched myself! Despite being offered the opportunity to choose the correct people to whom I am related the others listed were included. It was stated at the end that I had 14 criminal cases against me which totals 14 lies. I am ex military and have worked as a government contractor with a secret clearance. I've also been cleared by SLED numerous times, including in the last month, due to working with mental health patients. I've had a total of maybe 5 or 6 traffic violations in my entire life and they stated I had "many".

They was soo nice and explain things very well. Very nice people. Thanks???? She told me about discounts I could receive step by step directions. Will used them in the future if necessary, I cannot express how good the website was. It help out a great deal.

No complaints, she was pleasant and helpful. There is nothing more to say. Do not need this service on an ongoing basis. So this is like paying for a one time service. But your default is to opt out, so hence called today. Thank you.

Contact person was very helpful and patient. She talked me through the steps to secure the report in a very comprehensive manner. Very courteous and knowledgeable, and provided clear directions and guidance. Highly recommended for her competency and helpfulness - a valued employee.

The listing for me, stated that something red flagged, and I was possibly on watch list; with CIA, FBI, No Fly List, etc. I don’t appreciate scare tactics. I guess it works once and if you getting enough people, it paid off as you got one month out of me. Fool me twice, I don’t think so...

You get your information but it is too pricey. I also think that for the cost then you should not have to pay another fee for certain reports. And you should be able to go month to month without a subscription.

Yesterday I called in to cancel my subscription. A woman answered the call after a 5 minute wait. She was kind, pleasant and knowledgeable. I even received an email confirmation, which gave me reassurance. I’d use this website in the future if the need arose.

I needed to find out the date of death of a person so I could request an informational death certificate from the County of Los Angeles for a property transaction where the title never got changed to the buyer. Checkmate had a special deal and it was very convenient and easy to use. I was suppose to cancel before the 30-day trial and totally forgot, but when I got the notice from PayPal I made a phone call and they not only canceled without a hassle, they refunded my money (I called the same day and hadn't used the service in the new month). The customer service rep was very helpful and understanding. I will definitely use this service next year when I start the search for classmates for my 50-year high school reunion!!

I spoke with Paul today, as I no longer need the account. Paul offered an alternative to canceling. He was very nice and helpful. He was a pleasure to speak to. You are fortunate to have Paul on your team,

If I had a need for accessing the information Instant Checkmate provides on a regular basis, I would definitely subscribe. They are straightforward and the provided information is thorough and easy to sift through via their site. Thanks for the trial and I'd definitely recommend your product and service to others. Also, easy to contact a real person to talk to if need be.

The person I spoke to was incredibly efficient and spoke in a very clear voice with beautiful enunciation. They were very patient in helping me solve the problem I was having. I'd say that was the best interaction I have had with a customer service representative in a very long time.

I have used Instant Checkmate before and usually come back every year for updates. I love their 'timeline' feature, which I haven't seen on other sites. Their customer service agents have always been so nice and helpful. I just got off the phone with Ruthy, who seemed like I knew her for years. I will come back again!

I couldn’t believe that you listed the purchase of a property in the timeline. The purchase had occurred less than 6 months prior to my search. You truly have the most current information. That was the only way I was able to find the address I needed.

This website was for my own purpose. Checking my own background had a lot of info missing & wrong info also. Other ones I checked some were right on, others not so much. I saw info that was shocking. I do not know if this is a reliable website but it is a start. Also had checked out criminals in our area, was good to see and was surprised to know that so many are in our areas. I wanted to check this website out because I had a person that came back into our life after a very long time & was not sure where or if we or I wanted this. After checking this person out I felt safe & happy that I feel comfortable with my decision. And want to thank you for the info you had on this person which was accurate. That was my main reason for this website check.

Everything that I looked for was in the report. And I will definitely do it again and would recommend it to anyone who needs the information. This is the Best Buy that you can find. Try it at least once and you will be amazed.

He was so kind and helpful. What a great young man you have in your employment. He is a Keeper. Don't lose him! Going through your website was easy to use and understand! There was some wrong information but it was easy to correct.

Instant Checkmate provided the service that I wanted. Information I was seeking was easy to locate, even if it went back a number of years. If I ever need the same kind of service, as in searching for backgrounds, I would use Instant Checkmate again.

I thought the report was thorough and provided what I needed. I was impressed with the Erica who took my call to cancel. She was very professional and pleasant. My experience in the past has been the vendor trying to convince me to not cancel the service Not the case with Checkmate.

Cancel an account. The agent was outstanding. She handled everything very professionally. Great service. It was awesome to talk to someone in the USA. I will be happy to use your services in the future. Please compliment this employee for her good service.

She was superb in her demeanor and ability to deliver an acceptable value. She is the only reason I stayed on. I'm sorry I did not capture her name, but she was so intent on satisfying me, I didn't think to request her name before hanging up. She said it, but I was fiddling with my phone and putting it on speaker.

I wanted to look up one person on one occasion only. I did not want a subscription. I called to cancel subscription. I spoke to Jess and she couldn't have been nicer. I also spoke later to DeWhite. Both were very helpful and professional. If I ever need your service, I most certainly will contact your company.

Agent helped me get on very rapidly. He was very helpful. For some reason unable to sign in so he walked me through the steps to get on. The website is helpful in doing research for some of my rental clients.

Well it seems there are a lot of discrepancies.. One report will have my right age, then if I go to a relative's report it will show me as one of their relatives and have my age wrong? But like my criminal history has 2 traffic things that never show up anywhere and a dwi that normally never shows up but things that show up like ai or pi don't show up. Not that I want some things showing up but there's no consistency. My report shows me owning only 1 vehicle and it's not even a vehicle I have owned.. It shows me not having a ccw in Ky, I do have one lol.. Just saying it's kinda hit and miss. If I was looking up someone else's I would never know if it was accurate or not based on what mine shows me.. I know certain things on mine if true or not so I can fact check it. But I could never use this service to know for sure about someone else..

Excellent experience, the staff was very knowledgeable and helpful and very informative???? I enjoyed talking to the staff. They were very patient and very polite, they took time to answer the questions that I asked, I would not hesitate to call this service again.

I'm very satisfied with my results in searching for people. It clears a lot of mind boggling situations. I would recommend this website to my family and best friends. Easy searching the way the program is set up. I would continue using this website.

I tried pulling up information using my personal cell number to test your system on myself and it came back as someone else. My name is not tied to the above cell number. However the person I was interested to find more information about came back satisfactory.

I was very pleased with your service. Even when I discontinued the service the personnel was very helpful and courteous. I would join again if I need to to do any more screenings in the future. Thanks again. Jack **

Seems to have located my cousin who I haven't heard from in 15 years. A great tool to use - highly recommend. Wish I would have known about this years ago. The whole family has been trying to locate him.

The report was comprehensive and very useful. It cleared a job opportunity for an individual who was the subject of unfair rumors. When I later contacted customer service to cancel my account, the representative (Norma) was helpful and responsive.

I have not used Checkmate for some time. I called for information and spoke to an agent of your company. I was totally impressed. I received the information I needed in a very professional manner. Because of my call I just may resume my dealing with your company.

Excellent service, thank you for discontinuing service per my request. Dominic is an asset to you company, more companies should hire this high caliber of employee. Thank you again. If I should need this type of service again I will call.

Wanted info on daughter's new boyfriend who seemed too good to be true! Didn't find anything awful but the report is rather difficult to decipher but I'm pretty sure he's ok and not dangerous! I'm not sure what I expected from the report but I was hoping or thinking it would be more direct.

Your customer service agent was most helpful and was able to get to the bottom of the problem. It was that I was being double charged for an account that wasn’t even using. So at the end of it and they will give me a refund for that account that I wasn’t using and to straighten out and move forward to secure a promotional rate for my monthly subscription so I’m very pleased. Thank you very much.

The report received was accurate and thorough. There was a lot of detail that was included that I was unaware of, and was unexpected. It wasn't negative, but very eye opening as to what type of information is really out there.

I was very please with everything. Will tell my friends and family about this service. All the information was accurate and the customer service on the phone was great. The gentleman helped me with my issue and made sure I was taken care of.

Client had told me about criminal history, but it wasn't in your database. Information was missing from your database. Was not satisfied with the results of this site. Knew the information, was wanting to confirm. Maybe this was not the best site for me to use for a background check.

Spoke to Erica on Nov 2nd. Was very polite and helpful! I had a problem with my account and after speaking with her for only a few minutes she resolved it very quickly. Would recommend using this service as I will in the future.

I called twice for help on how to remove information not needed and add information that is needed. My report is still 164 pages of unnecessary information. I email support to remove all associates, neighbors and to include the criminal record that shows that there is none on me. Please contact me today so I can get the background check report accurate.

I was able to navigate this service easily. I would recommend this service to anyone. I found what I was looking for in complete detail and it was very informative. I no longer need the service because that is what I was looking for. And it was very easy to cancel the service. As well as the customer service was really wonderful. Thank you for providing the service.

This was a challenging request handled professionally and courteously. We were not sure where to start to solve our mistake. The agent knew how to go to many different areas to solve the issue of a long past overdue cancellation on our part. I would hire this person if I was looking for an employee to hire. Thank you very much.

I subscribed for one month of your service to check out one or 2 specific individuals and had no intention of renewing so I was disappointed to see an automatic renewal charge applied to my card. However your customer service rep was very courteous and efficient and able to help me in a timely manner. Thank you.

I have used ICM as a member on several occasions and each time was very satisfied. I was able to accomplish what I needed to do in a timely manner and have also recommended their services to others. Thank you Instant Checkmate team for your help at times and for handling my needs. Keep up the good work in helping people with their needs and questions.

When I called Instant Checkmate, I was connected almost immediately to a very nice and helpful girl. She understood my problem immediately and rectified it within a few short minutes. She is an asset to Checkmate and has a very helpful and pleasant attitude????

The representative was very helpful and answered all my questions professionally and was very patient. She helped me flag incorrect information on the criminal section which showed a person with a similar name had DWIs, which I have never had anywhere anytime. DWIs are not good to have on your record, as these were false.

I'll be honest. I'm a great Googler and research pretty well on my own. I didn't find any information that I didn't already know, and if would've had to do some research for public records anyway. I don't need to know someone's astrological sign. I'd rather know if maybe they passed away...3 people I know were listed as if they were alive. Anyway, the good news is your representative Jessie! She and I connected on the phone but the line cut off and she actually called me back and helped me with my issue. What an excellent representative of your company! You go Jessie!!! Compliments!

It gives you all public record information that is 100% accurate. They really do a great job by having information that confirms that the subject is who you are interested in. It gives great detail until you’re wanting to go beyond the provided information which at that point requires additional funding but is even more useful because it expands on further into the subject to provide a great service!

Customer support was terrific and solved the issue. Only issue I could not resolve was a credit card address. Card mailing address is a PO Box and is different than physical address. IC would not allow yet all companies we deal with have the same as us. Why not allow this for businesses?

Is was a pleasure talking with your receptionist & she took care of my problem. Nice doing business with you. I will let my friends know that your service is great. Thank your receptionist for the great help she was. Give her a raise. Daniel.

He was very helpful very professional. I enjoyed talking with him. He explained what he could and would do to help me. I was so excited that he could help me with my issue. Tell him that I really appreciate his professional skills.

The customer service representative that assisted me was amazing. I’m sorry that I could not catch her name but I believe it was either Ruthie ** or something like that. She was extremely friendly, understanding, professional and wanted nothing but to help me solve my problem. This account was open fraudulently but I can see from dealing with customer service that they are great.

The woman I spoke with explained everything to me when I had a question about and even helped me see some other opportunities in being a member I overlooked. Great team!! She laughed along with me over a silly mistake I made and put me at ease. A good honest company.

The customer service representative was courteous. I had several questions in addition to unsubscribing and she answered these questions accurately and confidently. I WOULD RECOMMEND INSTANT CHECKMATE TO A FRIEND! I think that your service is both trustworthy and confidential.

She answered my questions and resolved my issues. She was courteous and pleasant. I will recommend using this service if you are in need of finding out critical information. If this service is not right for you they will refund your money.

The associate helping me cancel my subscription was very helpful. She didn't try to talk me out of it or upsell me. She was also able to refund my last payment. The information that I received while I used it was invaluable.

While, the only issue that wasn't accurate was active phone number, everything else was 100% correct. It was simple to navigate the website. And calling to ask a billing question to customer service, my question was answered and handled efficiently, and a resolution was given quickly.

One click on this website and they will follow you FOREVER with annoying pop-ups! Support has been zero help to get rid of it... happening for MONTHS! All I wanted was someone's mailing address and didn't even get it!

The rep was very polite, nice and professional. I could see her smile through the phone. Her customer service skills were wonderful and we need more kind people like her on the receiving end for customer care. Great Job!?

I called in and asked to have subscription cancelled, it was fast, and representative was very courteous, she could not have been more helpful. I did not realize I had been paying a monthly fee and thought I would have to argue to get cancelled but certainly did not!

Was looking for a few different things that weren’t showing up. I was also looking for social media accounts under a different alias that didn’t show up. Already knew what was showed, was just looking for something different.

My old email address was used to open an account and investigate myself in 2017. I am disabled and do not work, why would I investigate myself. My husband realized this charge on my card and I did not recognize it. We called and were told what is was, that it was never used since activated but being charged monthly. They closed the account but said they would only return 12 months. Asked why only 12 months and the answer was, that is how far our system allows. How can a legitimate company acknowledging what has happened cannot return the full amount. Taking $$ from someone on SSDI, does not make a company trustworthy.

Instant Checkmate representative was EXCELLENT. He's a KEEPER! Took charge to resolve billing issue. Very professional, efficient, cordial. Followed up with action confirmation. Quality performance that translated to favorable reputation of service his employer provides. Would recommend as ethical company.

The operator that helps me was extremely kind and courteous. Also very fast and efficient. She put me at ease while helping me fix the issue I was having a problem with. I would recommend your customer service to anyone as I had a very positive experience. Thank you.

Billing. Jacob, was very nice and took care of the problem. Look in to usage and projected refund date. He was very upbeat and pleasant to work with. I am not really sure what else to say about this call. I hope of you Customer services are equally as nice. Have a great day. Have a great week. Have a great year.

I called to cancel my trial subscription but it had already charged my account this morning. Lindsay was very friendly and helpful and not only canceled my subscription but also offered my a refund for the monthly charge! She also offered a reduced monthly rate but I chose to pass at this time. No pressure at all from her - just friendly service!

I was doing a phone check and all the info I got back was the phone companies information and it was out of date which is fine. I just see no reason to pay for a service that is going to charge me any time I want to get a report.

The service did just what I wanted. I was pleased, however, this is something I will rarely ever use and I don't want to pay monthly for a service I won't be using. The cancellation process was easy. Thank you.

Excellent phone service. Was able to find what I needed and know that I can count on them for reliable information. It was easy to lookup information and I was able to connect with people I haven't seen in a long time.

The lady was very nice over the phone and helped me with the confusion of a bill that I did in error. Thank you very much for helping me solve this issue and getting me a part refund. The transaction was quick and easy with no hassle whatsoever.

Jack who assisted me was polite and very professional. He refunded my June payment which was unexpected. He also told me that if I need Instant Checkmate services again, that I can get a reduced rate. Thank you for taking care of this matter.

I was sent an email saying for 13 dollars I can get 30 days free. After one search I was cut off. Now they want 39 dollars and you have to pay for email check and extra for phone check and you will get charged 39 dollars a few times a month and also a dollar about ten time out of billing cycle. And after you call and tell them cancel you will still get charged. Do not get sucked into their scam and half of info is not correct so you can’t get a positive reading. All Bad. If you want a good site go to People Whiz. It very accurate. You pay one time a month. It’s free phone, emails. I tried everyone of these sites and they all suck except people whiz. Robert

I have never felt so unsafe in my life with scammers who claim to be one and they are not. Instant Checkmate helped me tremendously to remove those who are not legitimate and are only scammers. Thank you guys. I feel much safer this way with your verifications.

Checkmate does what it advertises - reveals otherwise difficult to obtain information about individuals. We found it useful recently when a home inspector gave misleading information about a home we were selling - checkmate revealed numerous problems with the individual, including tax evasion and other unhappy clients.

My call assistant Jake was very helpful in refunding me my money after confusing small print lead to me purchasing a plan I didn’t need or use. I appreciate the help and that there was only about a minute wait time.

Always helpful for whatever I have been looking for. Also very accommodating on the telephone. They try every way to help in your needs as a customer. Also have been very lucky in finding the correct information I have been looking for in a long time. I would recommend to my friends and family anytime.

Overall I was very satisfied with your service. I was able to locate the majority of the people I needed to find. If I ever decide to return to the service I was engaged in I wouldn't hesitate to use Instant Checkmate again.

I use Instant Checkmate to get contact info and to determine if a person should be safe to meet alone. Not sure if I should rely on it so much for the latter, but it works good for the former. Been subscribed for several years. Never tried another system.

Always very pleased with results from your website. I cant recall a time where I didn't find the info I was looking for, nationwide. Thanks for being there for a go to and helping me make educated business decisions with your information.

I've had good results with the service and customer service. A little pricey compared to others but it is worth trying to see if it meets your needs. When it comes to cost one has to balance a recurring monthly charge vs. only paying for it when you need it.

I am not necessarily answering these surveys in the order received. This is the 3rd one so I ask that you review the two previous surveys. The Customer Service Agents were very good and it was great that they were able to work from home and provide excellent service. Refer for good customer service: Yes! Having to call Customer Service: No.

I just needed to review one contact. No additional needs. The information I sought was readily available. Some of the information was not necessarily correct, but there were statements stating this might be the case. There may be additional needs in the future, but not at this time. I will re-evaluate my needs at a future date.

I wanted to try out this service. I wanted to see how it works, so I did a background search on myself. It is a bait and switch. It came up saying criminal record found. I have no criminal record. I continued to work through it to see what else it says. Then it said possible criminal record found, key word "possible". In the end it took 15 mins to run through everything and then came up to a credit card screen. It makes up stuff in order to get you to purchase the report....

Yesterday I decide to try your instantcheckmate.com 5-day Trial*. "Includes UNLIMITED Reports. Your 5-day $1 Trial Will Last Until 3/24/20! During your trial you’ll have access to UNLIMITED Background Reports. If you would like to cancel before the trial ends, you may do so for any reason and you will not be charged again. Simply call 1-800-222-8985."

I discovered that Instant Checkmate has billing our credit card since 2018. An account was created using my husband’s email and they claim we only did background checks on ourselves. Why a person would open up an account and do background checks on themselves is suspect to me. I’ve called customer service and they assure me my account is closed. I’ve canceled my credit card so they can’t have any more money. They have promised to issue me a 12 month refund despite the fact that they scammed me for longer than that. They say 12 month refund is their max. I only got that after being told that 3 and 6 months is the max.

I found what I needed with no problems. Helpful in what I needed to find. Information was mostly useful, but some was not... Overall the product is good, but someone should only have to pay for a report and not do a subscription service!!

I was asked to complete this survey after my last call to IC. I’ve had to call several times with various questions. Each time I’ve been greeted with very courteous and professional people. They always answer my questions to my satisfaction. Although the last time I called I was unable to get a conclusive answer, we came to the mutual conclusion that the subject of the search must have been removed from public records for some reason. The subject’s name did not appear under a people, phone, or email search. His name did not appear as a relative to his brother, father, or wife. I found his name as relative to his mother, but got an error message (attached) when I tried to view report.

Everything is like right on & Perfect like 99.99998% of the time! I HAVE recommended it to like at least 8 different people! I AM SOOO HAPPY WITH IT! I JUST CAN'T EVEN SAY HOW HAPPY I AM ABOUT IT'S EXISTENCE & WILL CONTINUE TO USE IT IN THE FUTURE!

I signed up to use it once a few years ago. It wasn't particularly helpful but better than nothing. I signed up recently to use it again, and again it found very little information on who I was looking up, despite having all pertinent information and consent from who I was checking... Cut to a few months later and I realized they have been autobilling me every month as well. Simply avoid. I don't know how it has such high reviews.

The website was easy to use and accurate. I'd recommend it to anyone. Whether for dating, or checking out a potential tradesman, it's a great tool to have at your disposal. It could save you money, as well as a lot of heartache later.

I used this process to determine the person and length of time that my husband cheated on me. I was successful in finding out the year it started bu not so sure about the ending date. If I have more things that needs to be checked I'll use this service.

BEWARE! Very deceptive on their cancellation procedure. I cancelled my subscription in January. Thinking it all good I did not give the site a second thought. Today I just got billed for a service I do not want, use or need. I went back to the site to find my account that had previously stated "inactive", active. I cancelled it again. It takes 3 fen times to confirm you want out then still offers you a chance to save and offers to take 10 dollars off the subscription price. I again went through all the steps and the 3 times of clicking cancel my account and again got a confirmation email stating my account was cancelled.

I canceled my account because I only needed a report on one person. The customer service rep. was so nice which is such a pleasure. She made the cancellation without trying to talk me into keeping it. I would definitely recommend this to others.

The representative that I spoke with was courteous, attentive and patient and excellent in trying to resolve my concerns. The rep showed professional excellence and commitment to ensure my problem was intricately looked into. I am impressed at the competence and swift call to action without subjecting me to unnecessary long hold. I am encouraged.

This was so easy for me to find an old friend. I could go back to where I left off on your site. Customer service was 5 stars. I will be using service again. I would recommend this site to anyone looking for old friends.

I used Instant Checkmate for help finding address for classmates when we had our 45th class reunion this past year. Instant Checkmate made it fast and easy to find the addresses I needed to send out the class reunion invitations. I would definitely recommend this service to anyone that is looking to find an address.

I am really happy. The few times I have needed help I got the help. I like Checkmate. I am worried about what may happen to my large family many who are young. With the FBI after my relative could hurt some one. Am a worry wart. I have never had something happen to me like this. I was doing Ancestry and I will be happy to recommend a friend to your company. I must stop. I need to lay down. Thanks. Shirley.

I thought that a one time use was a flat rate and turned out to be a subscription that I had no intentions of using and then never did. My fault for not reading the service plan. The gal who helped me was terrific. She researched the history of the start date and refunded me the appropriate monthly fees. I used this service twice without recalling. I'd probably use this service again if the occasion arises. Thanks so much!

Customer service was wonderful, but website did not deliver. No info on your site, but competitor delivered. Website lures you in with promise of info, but there was none. Would never have signed up. Do appreciate the refund. Thank you.

I found the service quick and easy to use and lent a feeling of security. I was dating online and the information provided was often a deciding factor. I’m happy to say that I believe my online dating days are over and I simply do not need the service any longer. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is single and searching online. When I called to cancel, the rep was extremely friendly and helpful.

I was searching for a friend of mine to reconnect with. Your service gave me enough information to assist me with my search. The person I was looking for had contacts that were all dead ends. I did find a link to one of her sisters and pulled her information. I was able to contact her sister who informed me that my dear friend died in 2016. Even though it was not the outcome that I wanted, I now can go through the grieving process and get closure. Thank you for all of your help.

I have never really trusted sites like this since I had my ID stolen. I really don't trust any sites. But after seeing your security the Experian name I became a believer in you. Even more so after I talked in person to one of your team members, great experience.

Also discovered a new friend of a friend, who has been visiting me is a pedophile. So it's worthwhile to use Instant Checkmate, which updates frequently, it's true - when you have a hunch about suspicious characters in your home.

I was able to find information I needed for my search. I am thankful it all turned out great. This Checkmate Search has any and everything you would be interested in and not interested in finding. You will definitely get the answers you are searching for. This search was a detailed search.

Thanks Zach for the great help I received in canceling my account and giving me a refund! The site is very good for searching for anyone you're looking for. If I need to search again I would do so with confidence.

The guys I talked to today were extremely kind and extremely helpful. It was very encouraging to experience great customer service. That is a rare thing in the world we live in today. Thank you very much. I would recommend this company to others.

Best way to protect yourself. Be smart ladies and check out anyone you have an interest in!! You will be shocked what men won’t reveal to you and try to hide!! Invest the small amount of money for your peace of mind! Mr. Right may be totally Mr. Wrong and a complete liar!!

Thought I could get phone numbers that was associated with my boyfriend nothing was current. I just wasn't satisfied y'all need to get the information on people up to date. Get y'alls info up to date Of January of 2020.

Thank you for the helpful service and staff!! The service worked extremely well in my time of need. The staff was prompt and friendly, the information was current and valuable. I will come back to you when I need help in the future!!

This was a very helpful service. Thank you! I found the info I was looking for and needed. Regarding possible dating people and finding out more about them. Was a useful resource that benefited me greatly. I no longer need this service at this time.

The information that I wanted was available and was thorough on InstantCheckmate’s website. I was satisfied with every aspect of the website, including my cancelling my subscription. The agent, Larian, was knowledgeable and efficient with her handling my subscription cancellation.

Thought all was lost trying to find real owner of RV I purchased in early Nov. 2019. Was given a old non valid title and no other info from guy I bought it from disappeared and person he had gotten invalid title wouldn't cooperate either. Was able to obtain name of valid title holder. Then with the help of Instant Checkmate I got more information than friends at a large police dept. could even come close to. They were amazed when I told them how much info I got. Social Media, all related phone #'s, Spouses, criminal backgrounds, way more than I expected. Got everything resolved and taken care of. Will highly recommend this service. Their phone help is superb!

I was satisfied with the value and content of the service I received. Customer service after the sale was excellent. I would gladly recommend your services to anyone needing them. I will be happy to be a return as need arises.

The service was very helpful to me. It contained lots of background information on assets and properties that I wouldn’t have other access to. I would recommend this service to people who need personal background checks and to know about assets and relations.

I have used this site for two years & highly recommend over others I’ve tried! They are very accurate and up to date compared to similar sites. Their customer service is exemplary & their bundle package is a great price! If you’re interested in researching those annoying anonymous phone calls or emails that show up, then, this is the site for you! And, you have to admit, it’s actually very interesting to look up friends and family on the internet. This site has it all!

While the report failed to give me the information I was looking for regarding an aged open status on a dismissed court case the support from customer service was excellent. I called to cancel the subscription and Albert was very understanding and accommodating. He not only cancelled the subscription but also refunded my initial fee as the service did not give me the one item that I was using it to find. If I have the need for a background service again I would choose this one.

M. Teresa was very pleasant and personable. She knew all the answers to all my questions and immediately rectified any issues. Please give that woman a Raise!! She is a valuable asset to your company.

I found it to be very helpful in locating people from the past. I did find some of the phone number were not accurate. I tried to locate a niece who was missing since 2000. It seems that either someone is using her name because the person that answered phone didn't know her.

Signed up to get info on a relative. The name, DOB, and some relatives were accurate. The information in question shows a 16 year old went to high school and college at the same time. Hard to believe the information in this report and they rely on the consumer to verify the information. I thought I was paying for verified information. Not worth any amount of money.

I absolutely can not believe how easy it was to get a refund. Somehow I was set for monthly auto when I only needed a 1 time deal. Your associate was so gracious and kind, I wish more businesses had the integrity that you have. I will definitely come back knowing you have a stellar reputation and put your customers first! Thank you so much!

I found everything I was looking for other than I think some misdemeanors do not show up or maybe they fall off after so long. Otherwise it’s a great service. I would recommend using them to check yourself and others records especially if you feel someone may be hiding something.

My husband and I are looking to sell our house. The realtor we hired started acting shady so I wanted to do some research to make sure he is who he is. I found lots of info on him that he's a scammer not even a legit realtor. This site saved us thousands of dollars of paying him for services he isn't authorized to do.

Intuitive and accurate. Great for checking out dates. Turned out one of mine was on Megan’s list and married and had filed bankruptcy and had a lengthy criminal history. Completely worth the fee to avoid all that drama. Found someone nice with a clean file so it was totally worth it.

Easy to use the search and got information I was looking for. Response time was quick in my search. Since I had it for a month I searched other people and was able to send in corrections I knew did not belong to the person I searched.

Absolute pleasure speaking with Al. He was so helpful, patient and informed. He walked me through all the issues I was having step by step. Saw I had multiple charges and made a refund to me. Set me up with the perfect plan for the perfect price. Great gentleman.

Spoke with Nick, who compassionately took care of the problem I had. I am not great at writing reviews but if all of the employees at this company are as kind and helpful as Nick....that says a lot about this company. Thank you.

I needed to use your service in the first month and it worked well. I noticed that your company was continuing to debit my account after I thought that I had cancelled the service. When I called customer service and spoke with Nick, he was great. He looked at the account, noted I had only used it in the first month and cancelled the account retroactively. Much appreciated and I would definitely use your company in the future.

I called on the phone for assistance. I didn't have to wait long as Le ** (I think was her name), your customer service agent, I spoke with was helpful, skilled at explanation of product and helped me better understand the reports. Your product was decent and fair given the money.

Received credit card statement yesterday & saw that we were charged twice for the same thing. The gentleman I talked to was exceptionally friendly and immediately took care of the situation with no issues whatsoever. Great Job and customer service. Didn't even have to ask to be credited - he had already done it before I even got to that point.

Unlike every other service of this type I have tried, this one actually found the people I was looking for, and gave me enough information before I signed up to let me know my first search was indeed the person I was looking for. My only objection is the cost. I understand that to provide all of the information they provide is costly, it is just out of my price range for a long term subscription.

Great service. Would highly recommend. Good amount of information received. Better than expected. Online personnel very helpful. Would sign up again if I find that I need to. Thank you. Will definitely recommend this service to my friends and family members.

I decided to cancel my service again, (I'm an on again/off again customer) and the agent I spoke with was polite and informative. I used some of the other background check services and comparatively speaking Checkmate has the best Customer Service.

Just when you've lost all hope of ever finding a business with that good old fashioned customer care service OUT of the Blue steps a company called CHECKMATE - EXCELLENT! Maryanne was delightful, professional, courteous, and very helpful I certainly recommend them! Thank You!...

Excellent customer service when my debit card wouldn't work to reactivate my account. When I called the 800 number, your customer service representative was able to figure out the problem and was able to reactivate my account using a different card number.

Best money I ever spent. Would definitely use this site again if I needed it!!! It gave me all the information I needed and was very accurate. It is very easy to use and has a great source of information.

I really liked this site. I wish they could go a little more in detail like what business or personal business property somebody owns. I will use them again I found some really useful information. I was able to find some distant relatives. Sincerely Stan

I wanted to do a background check on someone my child was starting to date. I had some concerns. This Instant Checkmate gave me the information for me to follow up on to make sure my child would be safe. All is well. THANK THANK THANK YOU!

Lisa, who handled my request, was polite, friendly and professional. I only cancelled because of financial problems and hopefully will subscribe again. I will definitely will recommend you to my friends. You offer a valuable service that is helpful to many people.

So far the services have been very accurate and informative especially as a Single Woman constantly being hit on by Men from other countries on Social media! I've found many of them to be nothing but ghosts and catfishing! You can never be too careful. Thank you for your service!

While I am somewhat disappointed with the information that I received from this program **** I cannot help but to appreciate the explanation and help from the service desk. Terrence went out of his way to provide the necessary information.

I called customer service to cancel my subscription because I had yet to use it ever and Albert was awesome!! (No issues with service, just never had to use it like I thought I would when I ordered it.) He guided me thru the process without any problems. So professional and courteous. Thank you Albert.

While the service was not quite what I was looking for, the customer service team was very understanding in canceling my subscription and making sure I was a satisfied customer. Give it a try. It may work for you and meet your needs.

Cassie did an excellent job for me in customer service. Very professional and personable. She really took care of me, answered all my questions. Although I didn't need to keep the service she didn't hassle me about leaving which leads me to think if I ever need the service again I would sign up instantly.

TOTAL SCAM FRAUD. BEWARE. DO NOT USE! Ran 1 report, authorized $34.78 charge. ICM charged my account $83.47 and $1.99 which I never authorized. By "agreeing to terms" on the site you are agreeing to a subscription which apparently allows them to charge whatever they want on an ongoing basis. TOTAL FRAUD SCAM DO NOT USE!!

Called in to cancel my subscription. The Agent on the phone was knowledgeable and reduced monthly payment. Very nice and courteous. Keeping subscription for now because of Agent's professionalism over the phone. Great customer Service. Very personable.

I called thinking I wanted to quit my membership. Ms. ** listened to my reason why and actually explained why I should keep my service. She was NOT pushy. She was informative on how using your company might help me with the problems I am having. She was right and I am very happy. Glad you employ such kind caring people. Thank you for all the info I now can get.

Customer service representative was very knowledgeable and friendly. Answered all my questions and solved my issue completely. Explained in very nice manner all my options in good detail. I had a question about something in a report and she was able to explain to me what it had meant.

I had a problem with my account and needed help right away. Albert was the best and got it fixed right then. Too bad every business isn’t like this. I will definitely do business again with this company. Thanks Albert!

I'd like to express that although my call's purpose was in no way beneficial for her or your company, the customer service rep, Caroline, went over and above with assistance and guidance to accomplishing here said purpose. With respect and appreciation to Caroline....Thank you!!!

Caroline needs a raise. If not a raise, she needs to be promoted to CEO. She is very personable and professional. Caroline is a valuable asset to Checkmate. My dealings with her was completely easy and Caroline is very easy to talk to. Thanks.

The lady that helped me out was very helpful, super professional, polite and she helped me out the best way she could. And she made sure that my problem was resolved before getting off the phone. She gets five out of five stars.

A friend of mine gave me some information on a gentleman I have been dating for over a year. It was not complete so I decided to look into his background for my self. Instant Checkmate did a thorough job and the information I received was just what I needed to be able to make an informed decision about this person that I was getting serious about. Even the cancellation process was easy and the sweet lady that assisted me was great. With employees like this fine young lady your company will do great. I will highly recommend your service to my friends who utilize Facebook and other chat rooms. Thank you for all your assistance.

If you want to walk through 15 slow online steps, which lead you to believe you’ll receive helpful information, you are on the right website. Had they led with their fees before wasting 10 minutes of my time I would’ve understood, considered, and either moved on or subscribed. Instead, their long-winded click-journey was a pain in the ass and waste of way too much time. When I ultimately sign up for a background check service, I will do it from a reputable source that doesn’t mislead me down a fake click journey of **.

When I wanted to cancel my month trail after 2 days, it was easy with no pressure from the rep on the phone. I was disappointed that the information that I received was vague and I didn't get anything that I could have found on my own. Great rep. Jake!

Amazed how thorough info was. Was able to find info on anyone I wanted. Great format. Was able to download all reports to save or print out. Really great service. Very easy to use after I got the hang of it. Took a few times but finally was able to use quickly.

This is a joke, when you log in to learn about the website and what it has to offer, they ask for your email, and then every time you turn on your computer they spam you with fake alerts on people. There should be a law against spam companies like this.

Great site. #1. Thank you. Found what I needed...Checkmate work what I needed to find out, City and State, A great website to find what to see about things that you may need to find out. Also a good way to remember is short "ICM"... I already told relatives to go to this site if needed. Again Thank you.

I took advantage of the free trial membership, and was able to find information that I could not find by doing my own searches online. Definitely came up with deeper information. After my trial period, I called to cancel and spoke with a lady named Joslyn who was very friendly and accommodating, definitely a customer service asset! Overall, I was pleased with your service and would recommend.

I had been wanting to check on my report for years just to see if they were really reputable and this was a name with a reputable reputation. I was impressed with the thoroughness of the report. Excellent and easy for anyone to use. It was nice to see all my old address and phone numbers that I had forgotten and all my email addresses too.

There was very little information provided and they started charging monthly to my account even though I never agreed to a subscription. Very unscrupulous. Beware. Check your account later to make sure that they haven't done this to you too.

The young lady that helped discontinue my service was amazing. In my experience when discontinuing a service, the people are rude and give you the run around. I only used the Check mate once, the 5 stars were earned by the young lady. She was professional, friendly and her phone voice was so pleasant. She needs a raise. She is amazing at her job.

I looked at Instant Checkmate as my partner, where I made valuable discoveries. I was delighted to find friends from my past, with the hope of contacting them in the future. I found a lot of useful information, but would have liked less information re sex offenders in the area.

I found what I was looking for! Great job on helping me out! I needed this to look someone up and it was a great help in finding what I thought I may find. I have recommended you to other people and they have found you helpful also! Thanks again!

After some investigating, we were able to to find out there was a second email address that I was never using and showed no activity that I was paying additional charges to my credit card account. Note to self, always check your statements. Thank you Andrew!! Your help was greatly appreciated!!

I called in reference to an activity on my charge account and found that it was from an search service that I assumed was cancelled. I spoke with an extremely delightful representative by the name of Caroline, could be Carolyn, and she was very helpful with my problem. I would hope that all of your representatives at ICM are as people oriented as she. Thank you and she for the assistance and wonderful contact.

I was very pleased with not only the quickness of my search, but also the how accurate the information was. And also learning some things that I never knew about people I thought I knew all about. Thank you for having such a great web site.

Good experience for the usage needed and refund was processed successfully when requested. Thanks for the good time on the phone when discussed to get the refund done in quick fashion. Thanks for the help. It was really appreciated. The customer service was tremendous and the wait time was not too bad.

The information was good, but I thought there would be more. Most if not all the information was accurate. Kinda fun to check out family as well, although no real surprises. Timeline could have more information in it - didn't see any real financial info like home purchases etc. Appreciate the service and would use it again.

The young lady was most knowledgeable, warm and yet super professional. I would certainly love to get her again if in the future I needed assistance. She had so much patience with me, an elderly woman with zero knowledge of computer work. Thank you for having an asset to your team. Mary

The customer service representative who helped me was very informative, polite, and helpful. He did a great job! The site was easy to use and very useful. I appreciate the opportunity to try it out for a very low price, and I would highly recommend it to others.

Very accurate, update information provided. I definitely recommend this site for anyone needing to do a background check on someone. It's definitely worth the small price you pay, to get that peace of mind you need. I highly recommend! Fantastic customer service as well. Don't hesitate.... using their service is worth every penny.

Great people to work with they take there time to make sure that everything you ask for is working very helpful and under standing customer service. I will be using their service again I'm sure. Very affordable too. Thank you again, Redgey

I received what I was looking for and the site may not have everything but it had enough. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to use your website and I would recommend it to someone if they wanted to check or confirm something.

Unbelievable results super accurate and fast. I will use you again. Gave me info that I would have never found on other websites. Gave this website to other friends to use and they absolutely loved it. We highly recommend it.

Marisa was very helpful and detailed in explaining the various products and her specific recommendations. Wonderful customer service: quick, helpful, and thorough. This is definitely a site I would recommend for those who need an insider scoop on a potential partner, roommate, or date.

Instant Checkmate gave me so much more information than I thought ANY service would. You can find out so many things about someone with pretty limited information to input. Their services really helped my family when we needed to look into someone that sounded more than a little fishy.

Was able to easily access all the information I was looking for and customer service Dept was AMAZINGLY FRIENDLY & HELPFUL. For someone that isn’t tech savvy, this site was very easy to navigate and user friendly. Will definitely recommend to friends. A friend recommended this company to me and they did not disappoint. Again the customer service was top notch!

The service takes a lot of time to get information. The information in some cases is not up to date. I evicted a tenant and it did not show up in the report. My tenant had several police visits for domestic abuse that did not show up after he was evicted.

Was not surprised by anything. All information including financial hardships and my social media history was expected. Very satisfied. Was surprised to find out the number of sex offenders residing near me, but it was good to be privy to that information anyway.

Had a great and easy experience with instant checkmate. Information seemed very accurate. Looked up records on most of my family. Very well worth the money and Caroline in customer service was awesome! Thank you!

Great Customer Service. Very nice and helpful. I have always been happy with the service and I have located the person I needed to. In the future If I am in need of located some one I will use your service without a Doubt. Thank you.

I was not very satisfied with the actual reports. They were missing A LOT of very crucial information. I forgot to cancel service immediately. Called panicking after seeing more charges. Spoke with Jesse and he was AMAZING and talked me off the ledge. Thank you Jesse. You’re the man!

I needed to reactivate my account for an emergency background check. I couldn’t get in and your agent (I’m sorry, I missed her name because I’m freaking out!) was so very helpful to me. She first gave me the information I needed and then figured out how I could get my account activated again. Thank you so much. I have the information (albeit scary) that I needed.

Good service - easy to use. I found the people I was looking for very easily and was able to get in touch with friends from many years ago. All of the information I wanted on these people was available and they were happy to hear from me. I told them how I found them and they plan on using the services also as they have friends that have been lost to them.

Had good luck with find a old friend. Would tell any one to use it if they are having trouble finding some one. It works ease and is simple to use. I have been looking for my friend for three years and it took me about ten minutes with Check mate.

This was very helpful. It was recommended to us for checking out a roommate. Evictions and criminal history. The site was very easy to navigate and the information was easy to read. Thank you for creating a good product. I will definitely use this service again when it is needed.
