Instant Checkmate Reviews

I have used other sites, but yours is hands down the best on the web. I discovered info about a pedophile predator who was around my grandchild daily. Now my grandchild is safely away from the threat. Thank you so much. I shudder to think what could of happened. That makes your site a wonderful tool in keeping pedophiles and criminals away.

I searched myself and it shows without even buying the report that I "may have a criminal record" (that's borderline slander, I do not). And that I have a mass amount of assets... If I do, I'd like access to them please.

The young lady I spoke with was very helpful, courteous, and efficient. Not to mention friendly. She made my experience delightful. She is a definite asset to your company. I appreciated her help and demeanor. I believe she went above and beyond in helping me with my problem. Thank You.

I have recently had the Pleasure to deal with 3 different Ladies in your Cust. Service Dept. 'Kathy' -- then 'Jessica' - and today 7/23/18 with 'Sandy'. All 3 Ladies were simply wonderful to deal with - POLITE - KNOWLEDGEABLE - COURTEOUS and FRIENDLY - Just EXCEPTIONAL. A PLEASURE... They are are an Asset to your Co. and certainly to us Customers. 'CONGRATULATION'! And THANK YOU!

I tried to log into my premium Checkmate account last night. Without success. I was on hold after calling for 1/2hr, then told I would receive callback. NOT. I tried again this morning and got basically the same results as before. I called and spoke to rep. I was told that all the past information on persons I searched and had them store for my immediate or future use WAS GONE. Information on the information hwy or stored on a computer does not just vanish. It was hacked my suspicions. I have the feeling their computers were hacked and the many dozens of searches I did are in other's hand other than mine or the main system of Instant Checkmate. P.S. My acct was the premium and had data beyond just the basic searches.

I could not access the program. Amir helped me find out why I was having difficulty. He was able to guide me through what was needed to get into the program. Amir was EXTREMELY helpful and knowledgeable. Amir was very positive and very polite. I REALLY appreciate his patience since I am a senior citizen and have difficulty understanding technology. Thank you Amir.

I have been using this service for years and I think it is better than anything else out there. I have memory problems and when people contact me saying they know me, I can check. This saves me considerable embarrassment AND keeps me secure from online predators.

I'm happy with the application. No doubt about it and it has been very helpful. It would be nice to perhaps have an "Advanced Search" capability. As suspected, you will populate a number of results and it can be limited because you don't entirely know the age or location of the person. One would then have to go through each based on a rough idea of the parameters, "This person would probably be mid 30s is my guess and I think they may have lived in GA before but so have several others, etc., hmmm". If there was a way to have an Advanced Search to where you could put keywords about the person you are seeking that could narrow it down even further.

I spoke with Kris today employee # **. He was so helpful finding all my options and very patient with my questions! I'm very happy with the conversation and experience over the years and will recommend Instant Checkmate to other people when they need these type of services.

Finding current contact info for folks I've not seen in 40 yrs - 95% of folks searched for I was able to discover at least one working number/email/address for. Considering I have had almost no luck through white pages or Google prior to this system, I am damned thrilled with it! Your timeline section is an enormous help for determining if I have the correct person. It is odd how many folks have no information re spouses/previous spouses--especially when I was at their wedding. In most cases, the only mention of a marriage is on property purchases under whom buyer/seller is.

I signed up for Instant Checkmate as I was mislead thinking this was a one time fee for a search. It turned out to be a monthly billing, and I never received a report that I searched for. I have not accessed this again as I thought it was a one time charge per their misleading ad. Billed multiple times, no information was ever provided for the one search and I have not even accessed the account since and this vendor will not refund any of the money they have billed for over a year.

I found everything I was looking for and more! This is a great site!!! You will get information that you were not expecting! You will be able to find information about the neighborhood you live in or are going to live in. It will let you know people that are relatives that you may not know about.

I have tried several times, using multiple email addresses, to have my information removed by using Instant Checkmate's "Expedited Opt Out" service. They are refusing to send the confirmation email necessary to complete the opt out service required by law in my state. A business cannot advertise a service it does not actually provide. This is North Carolina Law, and they are breaking it.

I've not had any issues on this site. I have had instances where I could find more info on criminal just from Google than here, and on the occasion that I've ordered more, I've found it mostly similar to the original with little additional info. Those time have not been worth the extra money.

This site is very concise and accurate making that search to find lost friends, family, etc very easy. The report provides sufficient previous information that helps determine you have likely found the right person and where they can be reach currently. I have found many of my high school classmates using this service.

Ran personal report on myself. Report has only my birthdate and address correct. It contains my son's work and educational history and not mine. The report has my middle name as LEWIS when it is actually **. After calling Instant Checkmate I was told that there was nothing they would do to correct the report. I consider the report, as no doubt others would as well, to be a total waste of both time and money.

Very vague in the information. I feel like I went to a bad psychic who walked away with my money. Does not have dates of marriage or divorces. Doesn't state if person was in the military. Many inaccurate information. Did not have complete and accurate information of related family members. Was not helpful at all. I did a better job finding information on my own.

As an Australian I engaged the services of Instant Checkmate to search for a cousin I believed to be in the United States. Whilst I only used the service once, I was unaware due to my own personal oversight, that I had actually agreed to a monthly subscription with Instant Checkmate. It wasn't until some years down the track that I realized that monthly deductions had been taken from my bank account for a service I only used once.

Tamera was very good and patient. She took a lot of time to help me when there were many problems. I recommend her highly. There was trouble with my account in that it automatically or without my desire cancelled my account. She straightened it all out.

I find this website very effective, and I feel it is the best quality search service. I am very satisfied, and I will recommend this website to all my educational friends. All my background information that is known, and retrievable is at my fingertips to explore.

In the beginning it "appears" to be somehow "free" information. Then after 10 minutes of waiting for the slide bars to finish, you are "hit" with a ridiculous charge. You can go to a state judiciary site and get information faster and free!!!

Everything that I wanted to find out was there. Nothing surprising either. Then to my surprise was info on others that have lived or visited me. Read them and found out things I didn't know, but is ok was long time ago. Thank you very much for these reports.

I was very frustrated when I couldn't get into my account, noticed the number to call, called, busy, grateful for a callback option. It took about 15 minutes and I received the call. The representative was very helpful, kind, well spoken and accurate. Within 2 mins problem fixed. Thank you!

I really enjoy having this service because I take care of mentally ill and elderly people, but it can get pricey when I pay for the service every month and pay for every premium finding that I need. When owning a facility we need to do thorough background searches on clients, helpers, family members, etc... Couldn't there be a price that is set for everything instead of nickel and dime pricing ($20.00 extra dollars is pricey for us working facilities). Please let me know. I enjoy your service but at these prices it's difficult to keep. I have recommended this service to others. Thank you.

This information is so out of date it is unbelievable. This was very expensive and the information for current address was 14 years out of date. I ran this on my husband of twelve years and I wasn't even listed as one of the people he knew. Don't waste your time or money! It's not real and don't even pay for the added fees because you don't get anything from that either.

My experience with Instant Checkmate has always been great. They have helped me out a lot and when I do not need to use the site for months at a time it is easy to cancel membership if needed. Other than that, overall, great help and great information is provided.

The company issued a refund for both of the amounts totaling $37.77 yesterday. Thank you.

I do enjoy the site and get a lot of information. I just wish I could see a bit more detail without having to pay more money. I already pay a monthly fee. Other than that I do not have any real issues with this site.

I ran a check on myself and was both shocked and amused by what I found. Fully a quarter of the info. is wrong. You had me living in Oregon and West Virginia. Never have. The funny thing is that you have me living at three different addresses simultaneously. Many of the relatives and acquaintances you have me down for are total mysteries to me. The only thing I can think of is that some of these people lived at addresses I once lived at, in some cases over thirty years ago. Or perhaps they are using a recycled phone number of mine.

My initial thoughts about the site were good... I looked everywhere to see if this was going to be another one of those sites that charge you a monthly fee then start tacking on additional fees for other features. From what I could see, they seemed legitimate and gave no indication that there would be additional fees to see additional content so I signed up and right off the bat it's $34.78 and once you're inside the site... It's an exact replica of TruthFinders, MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT then sure enough the additional fees started coming. $2.99 if you want the ability to save the report you just spent $34.78 on, an extra $23.40 for phone number search, extra $7.99 a month for email reports.

My wife has been doing everything she could to make it hard for me to find out who her lover was. With the help of your website I was able to do all the research it took to put everything together. I must thank you for having so much information on here and it all came together. Now she can lie cheat and steal from someone else.

Data page too difficult to manage on my machine. Too sensitive to placement... data was good. I find your service useful, but the previous system for communication and feedback was more stable and faster and easier to understand. Thanks for the good accuracy of everything you provide and your research.

Used this service to self-check and compare with background check from work. This service lists multiple people with same name from multiple states with multiple addresses, crime and arrest information. When I saw my report and saw I lived in states I've never been to, arrested for crimes I have NEVER committed as well as being on a states sex registry. Called the people and of course, morons at a call center saying there is nothing that can be done. This is a dangerous site. The misinformation could lead to wrongful terminations, police inquiries and a multitude of negative life altering treatment from job opportunities to the communities you live in. Stay away and use government approved background software. This is **. Dangerous, incompetent **.

I use this site often to locate old friends and coworkers. I have been successful in almost every search in finding the right person. It is reasonably priced per month and the reports are comprehensive. I recommend this site to anyone for locating persons.

You have me listed as living in Michigan City IN and Portage IN. That information is totally inaccurate. I only live in Michigan City. I have never lived in Portage a day in my life. I have been through Portage a few times but I never actually lived there. I see a fingerprint posted by name right side of court records. What you're say is that I have a criminal history. I most certainly did not. I am a Christian man and a law abiding citizen. I have never been arrested or convicted in a court of law a day in my life. Nor do I intend to either. You need to start retracting that information from your records effective immediately.

My husband has recently (in the last year) run repeated background checks on me, for his own reasons. This particular site has most of the information correct, as it is clear it is pulled from LinkedIn and other such sites I have been a part of, which is why it appears to be accurate. The problem is that some of what is there is DATED. It does not differentiate what is current, or how old the information is. Additionally, the dates of many items are NOT accurate, such as WHEN I lived certain places, off up to a decade. But the primary issue is this: it lists "possible relationships." It has listed a person that I DO NOT KNOW. I finally discovered that I went to school with this person, for EIGHT WEEKS, ten years ago.

Every time I try to remove my information, they say this: "Your email has been sent! If you don't see it, please be sure to check in your "bulk email" or "spam" folder." I have checked everywhere, tried different accounts, with the same results. They will NOT send you the confirmation e-mail, thus preventing you from opting out. Very frustrating.

As unhappy and annoyed as I am by the fact that I have better things to do; I feel compelled to write this, in hopes that individuals considering subscribing to this site will understand that "Instant Checkmate" isn't exactly the amazing service it purports to be. I entered my name in the search bar this evening, because when I did so several years ago, lots of photos, my phone number, address, etc., all popped up, and I was hoping I had been successful in removing it all (I was). Instant Checkmate was one of the few search results with my name, so I randomly clicked on the site, and discovered that apparently, unbeknownst to me, I am a felon! (Actually, I'm not).

I bought a three month plan, needing to run a check on a few people whom I KNEW had felony convictions in the past. I ran the reports on those individuals, and surprisingly, those convictions were not on the reports. I ran a report on myself. I saw a few traffic violations from twenty years ago, and the option to remove them. Hmmm, what good does running a background check with this company when people are allowed to go in and eliminate negative info about themselves? I also saw errors on mine in the assets section, which did not list any of my vehicles. Ran a report for an ex-coworker who owns a home yet no home was listed for him. Marriage info is not in the reports. Educational info is not in the reports. Essentially, little of use was in the reports. A waste of time and money.

I already know most of what you have. You want more money to find phone numbers and I am not getting any e-mail reports, I paid for. Need more updates. I am about to commit myself to a man. I would like to know if he's a cheater. Not satisfied with the reports I am getting. Need to update your records. Thanks for what little I did get.

My credit card information was stolen and used to sign up for this shady website. When I called to cancel, they needed all of my information to access the account. I shouldn't have to give my credit card number to a complete stranger to cancel a membership I didn't even want. I could understand giving the last four digits, but this is insane. Thank God the card has been cancelled and no one can use that number. If I could give their customer service zero stars, I would.

Good depth of information available. Gives an opportunity to correct inaccurate data. Criminal records need to rely more on birth dates where possible. Many criminal records do not apply since names and locations are similar. It does tell you that many may not apply.

It seems to be gone now when I search. Thank you very much for resolving this Instant Checkmate member services. I hope this opt out bug can also passed along to your engineering to fix.

Service is good. I found more than I expected over and over again. As long as I'm doing computer dating, I will continue to use this service. Before I go out on that first date, I email myself the profile (having read it myself) in case something happens to me. My family knows to check.

Checking records. At times it's easy but as you go down the list the information is for others with same name, or you have a standard for license for Controlled substances. At first I got anxious over the report, had to realized the person would not have an EPA number. I think I got excited to see someone I knew was under that domain. Other than that I think so far you are fairly accurate.

I am still waiting on payment back to my credit cards for something I cancelled within the time frame allotted. The company took it upon themselves to keep charging. I cancelled again. But, when I went on to check, I was still being charged.

I was unable to get into my account and had to make another under my secondary e-mail address. I don't know why this happened, I keep all my account logins in RoboForm and it has never failed me. One account is all I need, but now I have two. Thanks.

It looks like the data can be several years old. Location addresses and social profiles like Indeed and LinkedIN do not match those that I can find myself. Same with phone numbers and email addresses. The numbers given to me are almost never in the contact list. This means that current info is not in your reports. Can you date stamp your reports?

I have tried to opt out of having my data on their website multiple times. I never receive the confirmation e-mail they say has been sent. I check all my folders, including spam, but it is not to be found in any of them. I want to opt out and would appreciate having this e-mail sent to me so I can.

For the most part I like it but sometimes the searches need a little workaround to find what I'm looking for. The phone numbers very rarely are accurate though. Though they sometimes are and that's good. The emails seems to be accurate a lot of the times.

I utilize it so often I can't say that I don't find it helpful. My biggest thing is obvious inaccuracies, like how my name ha(d)/(s) photos of someone much older than I am. And my husband's info is nothing more recent than 10 years ago, the house we purchased together, email addresses, and phone numbers. We've been married that long and his girlfriend from high school is listed everywhere (yes, that bugs the crap out of me).

I did a search for myself to see what was contained in my online information. Instant Checkmate was one of the links that came up from a Google search. I pursued it, and some information appeared to be accurate, but then it stated that there was a hit on a criminal conviction. I haven't even had a speeding ticket for over 20 years. It takes forever and I never did get verification of my record.

Checkmate took over my phone. All I did was enter my name on a Checkmate.com page that popped up on my screen. I had recently received a trail week from PeopleFinders and cancelled the day before Checkmates came after me. Now I hear notifications and it's THEM making me complete pages that will take me to point of payment which I don't want. I've tried going back. All I did was search my name and now they took over my phone. I can't turn off its notifications and I can't unsubscribe! They suggest that there are bad records about me but there can't be. This morning I awake to "Stea **. Been arrested recently?" WHAT ON EARTH? HOW DO I GET THESE PEOPLE TO LEAVE ME ALONE?

I was checking out someone who has since been arrested. In that case your records indicated a problematic past. I am not adept at using internet to check on someone before. Your site was easy to use. A friend recommended I use your site for my personal use. Thank you.

I have been trying to opt-out of this database for weeks now. I have called them 4 times, used the Opt-Out page 7 times (I am yet to receive an email, and it has not gone to spam or junk), and 4 emails to Support@instantcheckmate.com have gone unanswered.

Found info to be very relevant, accurate and informative. I do wish it were a bit more in depth in some areas. But that's what I get paid for! He he. Wish it could provide pictures when available for accurate I.D. of those I am researching.

Love the site. I am researching my family and your site has provided a plethora of information all in one place with a multitude of search options. Too bad I'm only researching one family member, but my research tree will definitely fill quickly as I go person by person with the information provided. Great site!

Naomi from Customer Service. I appreciated the help she gave me because I could not log into my account. She was very friendly and took the time to tell me what to do and to give me another password. Also when I checked into my name I saw a lot of wrong information. I was able to click on the flag and the box that came up explained if you are the person I love that! Also asking about how I rated my experience that is a wonderful idea and yes I would recommend it to a friend. Tell me who wouldn't. Keep this going and never change!

I am using my findings to fill in gaps in my ancestry research. People who have passed are available on Ancestry and other data bases. Living people are harder to come by. Your site is giving me about 80%-90% of what I need. It is working well for me.

Looking for a friend and able to find her. I had looked in various places and was unable to find her. I also tried search engines to no avail. A friend told me about this website so I decided to give it a try. It was very simple and easy to use.

I have looked up Reid **, who moved from Fort Wayne, IN to Irvine, CA on Sept. 3, 2017, and as of today, YOU HAVE NO INFORMATION SHOWING of this move, or change of address. For what we pay to subscribe to this service, we expect A LOT MORE UP-TO-DATE ACCURACY THAN THIS! It is ridiculous that it still shows him 2,000+ miles away from his true location. Why have your services if we can expect nothing more than this!?

This is a great site to use during my investigations work. Due to the limited jurisdictions, it is very difficult for professional like me to find certain information which this site provides. Please update your information from time to time.

When I paid $34 the first month seeing your site as the first that clearly found a friend I've been looking for for years I was glad & impressed but never would have kept the service. The $10 monthly offer is a blast!! Thanks!

It's a super fast and excellent way of taking risk off transactions or from any matter of life. Very helpful. It has made me realize things I would have never imagined before... and confirm some of my worst fears.

From what I’ve obtained in the past for different people, I was hoping to find out more about each person… Place of employment, marriage info, family members… Otherwise, it's a start from what I’ve learned. I'm glad Instant Checkmate is available. I've looked myself up & was surprised at how much info is out there to the public.

I immediately had to spend more money to get information that I needed. I wish it was made more clear what your monthly charge goes towards. I love this otherwise, I can't believe how much information is incorrect. So glad I can correct these!

I been on this site many times. Always found myself. I paid one time then cancelled subscription. Came back just to check on my "stats" and I do not show up at all. Some lady that is 50 does {I am only 29}. Then when I put in my age it came up with 2 30 year olds with different middle initial and one was from NY. I lived in NJ for 22 years and most of the rest of my years in pa! So what’s going on? I am on SSI, I went to college, have signed up for many things on many sites, have Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites including my own blog. Plus was arrested once. Had 8 days in jail and community service a misdemeanor! I obviously am on several different types of public, private exact places... So not finding me now makes no sense. I like because I cancelled my subscription. After a few days they deleted me. Just erased me from their site! Also could not find my mother or father either!

I’m trying long time to remove my name from that site but they don’t give me that option. They are violating my privacy by publishing some bunch of lies regarding my background. They are located in San Diego, CA.

Sometimes other programs pass me over to Checkmate and there's no way to log in when it goes through what seems like hours of searching. It would be nice if when it got to the screen to pay for the item, you'd also have an option to log in if you have an account. I've also noticed the information is not that accurate. I searched on someone I knew and it was saying they were born with their married name vs maiden name. One would think with all the information out there that Checkmate could pull up accurate info about who a person married and what HS they attended, etc.

Received a refund from this business so case is resolved. While I remain unimpressed with their data, I appreciated their willingness to resolve the issue.

After doing a checkmate on three individuals I found the information provided was incomplete and omitted know court judgments. Even when indicating a criminal or court record no information on the record is provided without paying another $19.99 which is not identified as additional cost when you first join. Don't waste your money on this website!

Good so far. Worth the price. Pictures are not actual. I found my cousin on here. Interesting facts about others. My picture was not right but facts were, I enjoy looking other people up. I look forward to looking more people up.

This is a good site. I like it so far. I just hope when I go to cancel it it is just as easy as registering and using it. It is kind of amazing how much information there is and that it is so accurate. I would recommend to a friend. I should have checked it out sooner.

Undoubtedly the most dishonest, unhelpful, worthless support I've ever experienced. I was repeatedly lied to (the card will be charged tomorrow, the card will be charged in 8 days, the information is correct, the information is incorrect, the supervisor said they will definitely take care of this, I'll talk to the supervisor... the lies go on and on). Just letting you know Gail and Nadine and both of their supervisors are either the laziest, dishonest, nefarious people I've ever talked to on the phone or the company itself is or both. In case you can't tell I don't like to be being lied to and to have something as simple as update billing information become such a major ordeal. I'm glad you want to be told about my experience with Instant Checkmate, I probably wouldn't have bothered otherwise.

Everything was very straightforward. After I spoke to lady at Checkmate her calmness relaxed my hysterics. Not good on computer and shadow wouldn't go away. It was really a terrific way to find out things and I would like to have a way to let you know when I have information as to where they are now. One was a tenant. His girlfriend was nowhere. She said boyfriend is a deadbeat father again. Oh well. Thanks.

Great Service and very big help to make sure you're doing business with ethical and honest professionals. We were also able to Check our OWN records and remove some large inaccuracies. I have been also able to locate former Army and Work associates with whom I have lost touch.

I searched for my junior high school math teacher whom I was curious about, and found all the contact information I wanted. For this search and for Instant Checkmate in general, I rate the service highly for accuracy, and completeness of data including location, phone, email, social media and date of birth, as well as some history of work and such.

Incorrect home addresses, emails, phone numbers, employment and education. Due to hacking and ID theft, information on this site, and others like it, will not be updated for accuracy. My advice to others looking for TRUE info is to go directly to the source (ex: state websites for court records). Sites such as this are clearly misidentifying people.

Everything is great! Love it! I like the sequence, the family members, birth dates, deaths tree. I find all pieces of information helpful but would like more information without having to pay more money: Actually, wish I could search the globe. Other than that, I am very satisfied. Thank you.

I was able to add more information to my investigations. My investigations require more information to support the case. This site has been able to provide very important part of puzzle to put together my cases. In most part subject's connections, criminal history, financial history tells much more about the person.

I have never been more happy with a service in my entire life!! I found exactly all of the information I was looking for on everyone in my life. Thank you for providing such an amazing service at such an affordable price. I will definitely be recommending these services to other people!

Although I'd like more accurate phone contact numbers, criminal backgrounds and obituary info, I have found that you provide OUTSTANDING personal service whenever I have a question or trouble logging on. Your phone staffers are the best... I have called (3) or (4) times and I wish I'd have noted their specific names... But it doesn't matter... They ALL are patient, helpful, honest and understanding (no matter how computer illiterate I am). They seem to give it a sincere personal touch without following some script etc. Specifically, the night-crew has been great... (and I'm NOT the easiest guy to talk to on the phone). BTW: Where can I find the "Color-Code" info?

They are asking $34.95, but no pricing is given upfront, before you waste 20 minutes while they ask a lot of questions and are constantly "loading" information (which they will give you NONE of unless you pay $34.95). Some fake reviews online, most say it's not good info they provide, and anyway it's super SLOW.

Thank you! This is a great system and I love the slick, well laid out user interface. Easy to use, comprehensive data results. Only wish that the premium data was based on monthly flat rate fee vs per case. Has social media links that other websites do not have. Also seems to have more data up front after the initial search to help you identify the correct person to click on for a details report.

Renewing my membership for 6 mos at $59. I had an expired card when it came time to renew my subscription. I gave a new credit card expiration date and was told it would renew the following Monday. I have talked with several customer service people and no one has been able to program a renewal since about March 2017. Needless to say I am horribly disappointed and also disappointed with the new fee structure. The service itself is excellent. Easy to navigate. Great information.

Information inaccurate. Has people related that are not related. They say they pull from public records. Public does not mean legitimate records. There are no birth or marriage records with matching date of birth or details that could link these people to me.

I am most pleased with the information you have provided. Your reliability is superior over other companies supposedly offering this type of service. I wish to thank you for your good work in these matters. I will most likely continue to use your company for much needed info when such information is made available. Thanks again.

I pay for the product already although every single time I log in I get harassed to upgrade. Take this whatever it is and select yes and no on constant popups. The only reason I still use it is because I'm too lazy to find something else and cannot figure out how to remove my credit card information and keep getting charged too. Might as well use it until I finally lose my mind. Hopefully you get the point.

Someone made four fraudulent charges to my credit card for payments to Instant Checkmate. I suspect the charges were made by an employee that got my number at a seafood restaurant in Aberdeen WA. Instant Checkmate should verify that the person charging online is the owner of the credit card before accepting payment.

The service used to be great. I would be able to go on and look up things the way I wanted to. Now, even though I have asked at least 20 times for the pop-ups to stop, I have every search interrupted with careless and callous pop-ups that are a complete waste of time. I used to refer people out to the service and I know some have purchased subscriptions. I have stopped referring people to Instant Checkmate because I don't want them to associate me with such an annoying experience. The information is good as long as you're willing to put up with the BS surrounding their incessant pop-up screens.

I googled my own name and it led me to this site. Upon reading some of the entries there was 2 with only 40% correct information. This site listed me as being dead not once but twice with 2 very different backgrounds. Some of the information was fact. But I am very much alive and was shocked to learn they had me listed as being dead for the past 28 years.

Poorly working location map, not user friendly. Attempted to move the map to better see one of multiple locations found and the map quit working. I used my cursor to move the map and then hit the '+' button to make it larger and it quit working.

Was on the 20 a month plan, then they were charging me over 80 a month without any notice until I started to review my credit card statements. This company should not be in business. When I cancelled the service, they asked me if I would stay if they only charged me 10 a month... What a joke.

I requested to find an individual. That person was dead. They kept sending me messages saying that person was in my town, which was a lie. He had never been to my town and being dead, would never be to my town.

This site has been very easy to use, they have great customer service and very fair pricing. It has been a been a very useful tool. I highly recommend them for anyone who wants or needs a service to screen people for any reason.

The service has been fast, informative and easy to use. It gives a good amount of information. I have never needed to purchase more detail, but feel I could find valuable information if need be. My one complaint is how often they ask you to review your experience.

I purchased a two premium searches. The first one I purchased had the right information on it, however, the information or data on the report I purchased was replaced by a different/wrong one. The name was still right but the information is wrong. I would like to know if I can get my money back or be given the right information that I had purchased to begin with.

I couldn't believe how thorough this company was. After obtaining a background check on a client's wife of mine. We were able to obtain arrest information that we were unaware of. Which won our case in court. Best money well spent. Hands down the best website ever. I honestly would recommend anybody who's wanting to obtain a complete criminal background on anybody.

Old information; not updated, and some flat wrong. Reverse phone search is wrong and old. Search links people who are merely associated by address or a neighbor, but that makes it appear as through linked or related people. Quality control is horrific.

When checking background and others background's that I'm very close with I was not impressed. Information given was very vague, conditional, and far from the present time. Why would other want to find out what they have witnessed up front scene. When it's behind the scene, hide facts, and proof of these acts is what others are after.

I am very pleased with your services!! Your website helps me reconnect people who have lost contact with family/friends. I will always recommend your website to anyone trying to locate loved ones. You have helped me bring a lot of happiness to peoples lives. For this, I am very grateful.

Thanks to Instant Checkmate. I am able to get an honest and updated review of people that I know and even people that I have never met. As a result I have confidence to get in contact with people that I have very little information about. Thank you.

Yes I would recommend this site, and as a matter of fact, I already have. I didn't realize how much I would actually use a site such as this one until I actually had it. With the pace of today's world it is definitely a handy item to have. I have no complaints.

I just wanted to say I think your website is extremely helpful. It helped me find relatives for a friend who passed away and it helped me for $1.00 during your trial period. I really like your website and would use it again. I have referred friends to it as it was very helpful.

I get a lot of harassing phone calls, so I appreciate the fact that I can see who it is calling. Needless to say most of the calls have stopped. Some of the numbers however your service can't find. That's the only problem.

It gave me exactly what I needed, and the terms and conditions are fair. The price and what you can get for it are a good deal. I had the opportunity to speak with customer service representatives, and they were courteous and helpful. I would use this service unhesitatingly again, if I needed to.

I am happy about the services that I am receiving. Thank you for all your services. Your services really helped me out with reconnecting with all my buddies and all of my friends. The services really helped me out with a lot of things.

I was very very unhappy with this service. It was extremely important for me to get current info on someone for the safety of myself and family, so I have this a shot. Only after I had paid the money could I find out that the info was over 8 yrs old and also completely incorrect. It stated in here that he was found innocent on something he spent 8 yrs in prison for. Do not recommend this service at all!

Two of us searched for our high school classmates from 50 years ago. Instant Checkmate was a life saver in helping us to find them. We learned that people changed their emails much faster than their home addresses. While we had both, the emails needed updating but in making sure people received our invitations, we did our second mailing via snail mail. We suggest you do the same. Thank you Instant Checkmate.

First and foremost that damn drop in that asks you if you want an upgrade is driving me crazy. Please is there a setting to keep it from dropping in and can't believe if information is true! When you look a phone number up the person name comes up correctly. When you click on background check the next screen has many people the same name. Why you just showed me the correct person. I want that person's background check.

I did not find this service helpful. Was looking for updated address information on a couple of folks and IC had only the addresses from 2 years ago, not current or even last year's address. I also was charged automatically for 3 months of the service after telling them I didn't want it. They were good about refunding the charges when I called to complain.

I was looking for a friend that I had not been in contact with for a long time. The site was easy to navigate. The phone numbers didn't work, but an address listed was correct and I was able to get in touch with him. The cost was reasonable.

I love Instant Checkmate! I just can't afford the price! My id was lost & someone is using it to get credit cards, payday loans & cable! The information about me is all messed up on there! I do not nor have ever lived in North Carolina!

I got info that I already knew. I thought you would of given me things I couldn't just look up myself what a waste of money. I wouldn't recommend this site to anyone. Useless information. Shows how much you take pride in your job. I will not use y'alls service again.

I think checkmate was one of the best sites I've ever had experienced. It was perfect, not too slow, was pretty fast. I would recommend it to anybody. I don't think you should change anything except for maybe a little slow but other than that though it's excellent but my phone is price so that's what it is. So you're perfect don't change a thing. I'll give you 10 Stars if I could.

The above is a nephew of mine and I was trying to learn more about him. No one in the family has heard from him in years. I was hoping I could learn if he was still alive. Also hoped I could get touch with him and let him know that he is loved.

As far as I can tell from the reports I have requested the info is detailed and accurate. The site is user friendly and easy to navigate. I have recommended my girlfriends to use this type of service. The only other information I would like to see is if it shows the marital status in real time.

I can't ever get any information. It always wants me to pay and y'all are taking money off my card every month. Y'all want people’s money but won't give me what I want. So I am going to start stop payments on y'all trying to get money from me and I am going to have to call again and get y'all to stop.

Waste of money/ Hard to use. I keep getting notifications enticing me to come back. Fee is monthly. I thought it was annual. At least getting out was easy. The customer service was good with that. Did I say hard to use??

I am not the same Jay ** you are trying to report on that is in NC. My grandfather come from NC in 1900 and the family of those people settled in FL. I'm sure there is still family in NC, but I would be only distantly related. Please don't confuse me with those people.

I'm finding the reports are becoming less accurate. Example: Kelly ** of Verona, Pa. has been deceased since 2003. I reported this to you THREE times over the past month and it still shows her living in Verona. I was her father and she was killed in a motor vehicle crash in Pittsburgh, Pa. on 3-9-2003. Also, I don't like the new report format and I'm on occasions unable to gain access to your database as well as your "sister" company BeenVerified. Shopping for a new company.

Instant Checkmate has been helpful in obtaining information on individuals. Obviously I would like there to be more complete information, but realize it is often difficult to collect data. I am annoyed by the constant pop ups offering further services for additional cost.

The website sucks. It keeps trying to make me pay again. And, no one I am looking for is ever found. I have wasted enough money on this site. On top of that, it seems very slow. There should be a way to choose if you want to skip parts of the profile.

The "I'm Not A Robot, reCAPTCHA" process is a terrible tool to sign in with. It is very frustrating and does not seem to work half the time. I hope the company does away with it. The service is great.

I use the service to search for people and then to use the contact info to communicate with them. I do not like the recent change of putting the timeline info up front. It duplicates the info that is available later in the report and takes up too much space. Very often I find the contact info (phone numbers & addresses) to be out of date, no longer in service, etc. I don't use the other info that is available and would like to see a plan that offers a lower price for just phone number and address.

Wonderful service that provides accurate and detailed information on searched names. Some of the features I particularly liked over other common and popular websites similar are that a birthday is included in the information. Additionally, the criminal record section is very thorough and complete.

Satisfied that I found quite a few people from my past and have gotten in touch with them. Not satisfied when I find a friend and it says they passed away and then I find out that they are still alive. Updates are needed because I know of a few who have passed away and it is still not noted. Some I can't find at all. Nevertheless, I do enjoy the site.

This site helps me find family relationships for living individuals - very helpful for find maiden names. So that females - can count too. I have found that there is no better way to help with the most difficult part of genealogy. Also having previous locations mentioned, helps find family history a little easier.

Many times I have wondered what happened to friends from an earlier time in my life. I used Checkmate to verify the identity and contact information to find two such friends. Checkmate was fast, accurate, and discreet. Both friends from 50 years in the past have been found and we were reunited. I love the way Checkmate protects the information of each person involved. Thanks Checkmate!

It is good to have opportunity to find out who is calling us so we could communicate with positive intentions. Sometimes I need to know owner of the property to find out if he or she still available on that old phone number; it is convenient to have your website. Thanks!

Instant Checkmate is an outstanding search site when you need to find out more about people in your life. Always call their helpline number if you have any difficulties in researching someone or how the site works. I received excellent help when needing assistance in using Instant Checkmate!!!

Login's have become a real pain in the ** ever since you added the "Captcha" feature. Login's now require repeated attempts. NOT happy with the extra time & effort just to log into a long time account. I've had this account for a long time and am considering terminating it for this reason.

Great info. Individuals would be surprised to find out the info on this site about others. The monthly cost was a little high for me to continue & didn’t like the way you had to pay for "extras" that weren't included in the monthly fee. If you hire or rent/lease this site is a showtime deal. If you're dating it's a must.

I have a deal with you, a contract, for a set amount of $$$$. I get for the most part unlimited searches. I downloaded a search when I came back it was gone. I paid for it, you had no right to remove it.

I use Instant Checkmate regularly to confirm who I am talking to. I get many phone calls from salespeople and Instant Checkmate allows to me confirm who they are. I can confirm that I am not dealing with a spammer and that the person is properly representing themselves.

While using a "trial membership" with ICM I clicked on a banner that popped up on my computer screen. This immediately charged me $19.95 on my PayPal account without letting first log into PayPal to confirm the charge. I contacted PayPal and ICM to have the charge reversed. PayPal could not refund the charge until ICM approved it. It took MONTHS to get the refund because nobody at ICM would discuss the issue until they completed a thorough "review". I should not have been charged instantly in the first place. Now I cannot even re-establish my account to use the service again.

Most of the information I solicit is accurate. My main concern is that I'm not advised prior to my credit card being charged for an automatic payment. You should advise your customer of pending automatic payments. Otherwise, I like being able to find information on shipmates who served in the U.S. Navy in the Submarine Force.

Very pleased with the info provided. It makes it much easier to make the proper informed decisions. Will continue to use. It helps with keeping our office safe. It's nice not having to just take the word of the individual. There's actually fact on paper.

Loved the service. Quick and easy way to get useful info on doctors, long lost relatives, etc. Problem ALWAYS was access. EVERY time I'd try to log in, my name and/or password were rejected. I'd have to call Customer Service, and we'd walk through all the steps to give me access AT THAT TIME. That did NOT mean I could log on anew later. After awhile I just got fed up. You MUST make name/password acceptance foolproof. Try the log ins as a customer and see what you get. You make think it's even 90% working, but I clearly was in the other 10%. Thanks for asking for my feedback.

Good experiences overall. I don't like the I'm not a robot feature as I have to do it multiple times even when it's done correctly. I have found most info I've searched for. Love the phone look up! Wish there were more in the criminal checks.

The majority of information is incorrect on the people I looked up. So much missing on the "Criminal" background. I was charged 2-4 times a month and even though I was refunded... it was very annoying!!! If anybody uses this website watch your band account for the $4.99 charges they get ya for!!!

I have been on other sites but this one has been more accurate on providing great results in the past. I was able to get criminal records, previous addresses not disclosed, found relatives who lost contact with. Love this site. When I purchased a premium record and nothing there they agreed without discussion and verification checked... they refunded my 19.00 extra. I would recommend this site to others in need. I would suggest better yearly pricing. Three month, monthly, yearly too.

A Great Search Tool. I use Instant Checkmate to supplement my Ancestry.com tool. If I get stuck trying to find someone, I use Instant Checkmate to get moving forward again. I do wish it provided the ability to delete reports and searches instead of archive.

I have been able to obtain most of the information I have sought. However, I recently had to restore my computer to its factory settings and have not been able to sign into Instant Checkmate since. This is a source of constant frustration to me.

The reports are great. That's great. However the billing system is downright dishonest. They sell you a package and Bill you then they change the package and Bill you twice both the old amount in the new amount. When you protest they say they can't find your account so they don't give you the money back. Be sure to buy through PayPal. That'd be the best way to protect yourself. If you must get these reports possibly there's a better service.

The last time I tried to pull info on someone you guys changed the way you bill. Seemed like a rip off to me so I'm going to find another company that bills by individual reports instead of your new way. Let me know if you change your way? A lot of base hits is better than a few home runs!

When I first started with Instant Checkmate the search results were there. If you wanted more you paid for a premium report. Now with you get the report, you have to pay almost 20.00 for information you had previously gotten for the price of your monthly fee. I really feel I'm being ripped off and will be canceling my monthly subscription. Shame on you for getting people in then changing things up. Almost like a "bait and switch".

The service gives you just enough info to stir your interest and continually asks if you were satisfied with the information given as well as for more money if you'd like further info. Very much a bait and switch type salesmanship. Not overly impressed nor totally displeased.

I would like a little more information on the reports. I use it quite a bit to kinda pre-screen guys my 21yo will be meeting, and it gives some... but the last guy, I KNEW had been arrested for kidnapping, illegal home entry, and 2 other charges; but those weren't even on your report... let alone if he had committed PRIOR FELONIES!

A ripoff, you pay one price and they tell you what info you get. Then once you get the info nothing really is Available until you upgrade which means paying more. I feel it is just a way of getting people's money and giving information that really is not enough.

I really like this tool as a teacher. Since I teach at the College level, my adult students sometimes act very strange. This way I can look them up on Checkmate and determine if they have a criminal record. In Kansas we now allow concealed guns on campus. Two times using this alerted me to a dangerous situation.

Not worth buying! Couldn't bring up my own name or past names. Not worth buying! I canceled this service and was told just because the service didn't recognize my current or past name that I still owed for the service.

It's a good resource for finding out basic info about people quickly. I don't like the annoying pop ups asking me if I either "Love It" or "Don't Like It". Sometimes I get 2 pop ups for every search. Thanks.

There are too many pop up messages while trying to work in Instant Checkmate. For some reason, the first search I tried to do was capture received as his name but agents can't get it changed. Other than these, I have been happy with Instant Checkmate.

Seems to be a lot missed and most of it is criminal activity. On reports I've done there has been critical information missed and it has made it extremely difficult to accomplish my goals that I use this app for. I'm sure that most customers have nothing to compare your data to and have no idea.

It is very hard to cancel your membership, I'm still trying. No one to email, just an 800 number, no customer service. When you are dissatisfied, you just want to sever our ties with this corporation.

In the past I have found your service very useful. But for these 2 people, that is my searches in the last 5 months, I have found it to be a frustration only; as you have a glitch in your save program that throws away everything that has been done up to that point the minute I hit save. :(

Your services for finding people are the best. I've had the privilege to use and priced the most competitive for what you get I believe. I do wish there was a lookup by address but otherwise, it has everything I need!

I like my experience with Instant Checkmate. It's very easy to use. I have very good results each time. The site provides useful information for the searches I have conducted. You can easily maneuver through each section of the reports. I am well pleased with the service.

There are some benefits but many issues around inaccurate information and the most frustrating constant sales badgering in hopes of getting more money. The only real value surrounds looking up phone numbers and tie to names. Their trying to always up sell is annoying.

I have tried multiple service providers such as Instant Checkmate. In four words - I AM A SUBSCRIBER.

I find the Instant Checkmate program convenient and very thorough with their reports. I only wish I could print out a report to share with my Board of Governors. We usually stand around the laptop to read a report with unfavorable and favorable events.

I was very happy with the services Instant Checkmate provided. The results were accurate and the website was fairly easy to use. The only not-so-great thing was the price and ads (mainly ads). I primarily used the website on my phone's browser (a teenie iPhone SE), so ads/pop-ups were pretty distracting and took more time to pan through.

Should be one price for all information. This two level system is overcharging. Information provided at introductory level can be gained through free sources if one knows where to look. Oftentimes the telephone numbers are out of date and therefore useless.

The information available on individuals is adequate. We have used it successfully to locate people who have been difficult to find otherwise. The main complaint that I have with the system is that, although I pay for the basic plan, it continuously pops up windows wanting me to subscribe to a more expensive plan. Even though I click the "do not ask again", it keeps asking and asking. I am considering changing service companies because of the ads.

I use your service most every day to help in my genealogy research. With the help of the Possible Relatives I can piece family members together with their family branch. It has been most helpful in finding family members of adopted individuals.

This site has helped me locate some good friends of mine. And also helped me verify some of the people whom I have met information. I find it very useful and would recommend it if you're unsure of a person's intent or background.

The service would give you only basic information and for each level you were charged more. So bottom line it gave me nothing of what I needed. Most of what I paid for was basically common knowledge already by public information so why would I want to pay for that. It was that way on the 3 searches I did as well.

I do not like the new format at all, nor do I appreciate the system continuously asking me how I liked the report I received about a particular person. I'm not paying to have to give you constant feedback. I vastly prefer the previous format, not what is essentially a tree of results. I will not continue to use Instant Checkmate beyond my current agreement if you are unwilling to switch back.
