PeopleWhiz Review of PeopleWhiz: Catch Cheaters and Uncover Online Activity

So, I recently tried out PeopleWhiz and I gotta say, it's pretty interesting. The ad I saw was all about catching cheaters and finding out everything about their online activity. I mean, who wouldn't want to know if their partner is up to no good, right?

I decided to give it a go and searched for my partner's history. It gave me some addresses and voter registration info, which was pretty cool. But when it came to social media, there was only one reference and it was for someone with the same name. The activity was a bit lacking, but I guess that's not too surprising. People can be pretty shady sometimes.

One thing that kinda bothered me though was that there wasn't an option to cancel my billing. I had to call a number and talk to an actual person. And when I emailed them, I didn't get a response back yet. But hey, I guess that's just how it goes sometimes.

Overall, I think PeopleWhiz is worth checking out if you're curious about someone's online activity. Just be prepared to deal with some human errors and maybe wait a bit for a response.

PeopleWhiz PeopleWhiz Review: Inaccurate Reports, Lacking Customer Service, Not Worth the Money

is ridiculous. PeopleWhiz is a waste of money and time. The reports are inaccurate and incomplete. I wouldn't recommend this website to anyone. It's frustrating to pay for a service that doesn't deliver what it promises. The website claims to have access to federal, national, and state databases, but the results are disappointing. The lack of criminal history and marriage/divorce certificates is concerning. It's hard to trust a website that can't even provide basic information.

Furthermore, the addresses provided in the reports were incorrect. It's important to have accurate information, especially when it comes to background checks. The fact that one of the names searched is a sex offender, but no record was found, is alarming. How can a website claim to have access to national databases and not find anything? It's unacceptable.

The customer service is also lacking. Sending an email and waiting 24-48 hours for a reply is not acceptable. When it comes to background checks, time is of the essence. Waiting for a reply can delay important decisions.

In conclusion, PeopleWhiz is not worth the money or time. The reports are inaccurate and incomplete. The lack of criminal history and marriage/divorce certificates is concerning. The incorrect addresses and the fact that a sex offender was not found in the search is alarming. The customer service is also lacking. It's frustrating to pay for a service that doesn't deliver what it promises. I would not recommend this website to anyone.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Experience with PeopleWhiz: Hidden Fees, Poor Customer Service, and Unreliable Program

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with PeopleWhiz. I mean, I forked over some cash for this service, and what did I get? A bunch of extra fees for every person I wanted to look up. And let me tell you, that ain't how other sites do it. Once you got a subscription, you should be able to search for as many people as you want, right?

But that ain't even the worst part. When I tried to cancel my subscription, they only gave me back 75% of my money. What kind of nonsense is that? And to top it all off, I was in the middle of checking out one more person when the whole thing just shut down on me. No warning, no explanation, nothing. That's just plain rude.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend PeopleWhiz to anyone. It's a real shame, because I was hoping for some good results. But instead, I got a shoddy program that doesn't deliver what it promises. Save your money and look elsewhere, folks.

PeopleWhiz Unreliable and Misleading: My Experience with PeopleWhiz

I gotta say, this website called PeopleWhiz is not what it seems. I thought I was gonna get a full report on someone for just $27.99, but all they gave me was a name and address that I could've found for free on Google. And if I wanted more info, they wanted to charge me even more money! What a ripoff!

But that's not even the worst part. When I tried to look up my own name, the info they gave me was all wrong. They got my middle name wrong and listed previous addresses that weren't even mine. And get this, they even said I had a criminal record! Like, what?! That's not even true! Turns out, they mixed up my info with someone else's.

So yeah, I wouldn't recommend using PeopleWhiz. It's not accurate and it's just gonna waste your money. Save yourself the trouble and find a different website to use.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing and Inaccurate: My Experience with PeopleWhiz Background Check

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with PeopleWhiz. I shelled out $27 for some information that I already had, and it didn't even give me what I was looking for. I mean, come on, I was trying to find out if this person had a criminal record, and the site said "No known criminal record." But I know for a fact that there were some court hearings in the past, so what gives?

It seems like the information on this site isn't very accurate or up-to-date. For example, the person's last address was listed as being from 10 years ago, but I know for a fact that they've moved twice since then. And those addresses were established, too! So why isn't that information on the site?

What really got me was that I was trying to see if there was a pending court hearing coming up, or if the person was still incarcerated or in the state hospital. But the site didn't give me any of that information. I mean, what's the point of paying for a service if it doesn't even give you what you need?

Overall, I wouldn't recommend PeopleWhiz to anyone. It's just not worth the money, and the information isn't reliable. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere for your background check needs.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Experience with PeopleWhiz: Missing Info and Customer Service Woes

I gotta say, my experience with PeopleWhiz (peoplewhiz.com) has been a real headache. I tried to look up my dear old dad on my phone, but it was a real pain in the neck. And that was just the beginning of my troubles! I had to call up their customer service to reset my password, but even then, I ran into another snag. It's just too much to go into all the details here, you know?

Anyway, I finally managed to get my hands on the report I was after, but I gotta tell ya, I'm not too thrilled with what I'm seeing. There's a lot of missing and flat-out wrong information on people I know like the back of my hand. And to top it all off, they want me to pay $28 a month for this? No way, Jose!

All in all, I'm feeling pretty wary of this app. Maybe it'll magically fix itself, but I'm not holding my breath.

PeopleWhiz Reliable and Easy-to-Use: My Experience with PeopleWhiz Background Check Service

I stumbled upon PeopleWhiz (peoplewhiz.com) while searching for a job that would suit me. At first, I was skeptical about using an online background check service, but I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised by the results.

The website was easy to navigate, and I was able to find the information I needed quickly. I was able to verify my own information, which gave me peace of mind. I also used the service to check out potential employers, and it helped me make informed decisions.

One thing I appreciated about PeopleWhiz was the accuracy of the information. I have used other background check services in the past, and they were not always reliable. PeopleWhiz provided me with up-to-date information that was relevant to my needs.

Overall, I would recommend PeopleWhiz to anyone who needs to verify information about themselves or others. It's a reliable and easy-to-use service that can save you time and hassle. Plus, it's affordable, which is always a plus.

As a regular person, I make mistakes with my spelling and grammar, but I hope this review is helpful to others who are considering using PeopleWhiz. It's a great resource that can help you make informed decisions about your career and personal life.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Experience with PeopleWhiz: Overpriced and Underdelivered

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with PeopleWhiz. I mean, I was expecting to get a whole bunch of juicy info about myself, but all I got was a measly little report. So I figured, hey, maybe I need to upgrade to get the good stuff. But even after shelling out some extra cash, I still didn't get much more than before. And let me tell you, that was not cheap. I mean, seriously, what a ripoff.

I don't know about you, but when I see an ad for something, I expect it to deliver. And PeopleWhiz just didn't cut it. I mean, sure, they make all these promises about how they can find all this amazing information about people, but when it comes down to it, they just don't deliver. And for the price they charge, that's just not acceptable.

Honestly, I've been burned by a lot of companies in my time, but PeopleWhiz is definitely up there on the list of ones I'll never do business with again. I mean, if they can't even deliver on their promises, what's the point? I'll just take my business elsewhere, thank you very much.

So yeah, if you're thinking about using PeopleWhiz, I'd say think again. Unless you're okay with spending a bunch of money for very little return, that is. But if you're anything like me, you'll want to take your toys and go play somewhere else. And if you're reading this and you feel the same way, let me know. Maybe we can start a support group or something.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Results and Inaccurate Info: My Experience with PeopleWhiz

I gotta say, I'm pretty bummed about the results I got from PeopleWhiz. I mean, I was super clear about what I was looking for, but when the results came in, there were a bunch of other people with the same name who had nothing to do with my search. What gives, PeopleWhiz? I shelled out almost 30 bucks for this, and I feel like I got ripped off.

To make matters worse, there was a ton of bad info in the report. I mean, come on, if you're gonna charge people for this stuff, at least make sure it's accurate, right? And then they had the nerve to offer me a "premium report" after I already paid for the first one. Like, seriously? You're gonna insult me like that?

Honestly, I'm just really disappointed in PeopleWhiz. I thought they were supposed to be good at this stuff, but clearly they're not. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone, and I definitely won't be using them again. A refund would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath.

Oh, and by the way, I thought it was pretty funny how they assumed I made a mistake when I gave them a one-star rating. Like, nope, I meant to do that. And then I had to explain myself just to get through the stupid survey. Ugh.

PeopleWhiz PeopleWhiz Premium Service Review: Inaccurate Information and False Advertising

I paid for the premium service on PeopleWhiz and I have to say, I was not impressed. The information provided was nothing more than what I could find on a basic white pages subscription. I decided to do a search on myself and my late husband, and I found that the information provided was incorrect. The marriage and divorce records were inaccurate, and the related persons listed were not correct. My late husband was a felon, but the criminal records listed under his name and birthday were not his. I never requested privacy on any of my marriage or divorce records, but none of my three prior marriages were listed. Additionally, my son was not listed as a related person, but my daughter was.

To make matters worse, PeopleWhiz had a dear friend of ours listed as living, even though they had passed away seven years ago. My husband has been dead for two years, and yet PeopleWhiz still had him listed as alive. This is unacceptable.

I decided to try PeopleWhiz as an experiment to see if they could provide accurate information, but I found that their so-called private investigator is either a fraud or a lousy investigator. I paid more than $50 for this service, but I could have paid approximately $10 for a white pages subscription and gotten just as much, if not better, information.

I would ask for a total refund, but I am sure there is a disclaimer in the small print to protect PeopleWhiz from that. This only goes to show that they are aware of the fact that they are making false advertisements. Shame on them.

I believe that PeopleWhiz needs to be exposed for their blatant deception, and I intend to do just that. Thank you for ripping me off.

PeopleWhiz People WHiz

To whom it may concern:

People Whiz advertisement claims they will provide a complete report if you check yourself. They claim says the report will include Social media, Marriage, Criminal and sex offence and much more. I provided them with my name and paid $27.99 The report I received included arrest reports for other people with similar name but different middle names covering States I've never traveled to. In order to review the Sexual offender or other information in the report they require additional money. THis is a bogus company and their report is incomplete. I paid the fee using PayPal and plan to file a complaint.

Sincerely

Tony Russomanno

Desired outcome: Report PeopleWhiz to federal authorities

PeopleWhiz Review of PeopleWhiz: A Solid Service for Digging Up Juicy Details

Hey there, I gotta say, PeopleWhiz is pretty darn good. I mean, I was pretty bummed when I couldn't get the deets on my family members, ya know? I was really hoping to track down this total loser who stole my sweet ride - a '92 GMC truck that my dear ol' mom bought me right before she passed. And get this, the guy also swiped my son's wallet, which had all his important stuff in it like his ID and SS number. My son passed away in 2019, he was only 21 years old. So you can imagine how much I wanna catch this scumbag and get him off the streets.

But even though I couldn't find what I was lookin' for, I still think PeopleWhiz is a solid service. I mean, I was able to dig up some pretty useful info on some other folks, like my nosy neighbor who's always up in my business. And the best part is, it's super easy to use. All ya gotta do is type in a name and bam, you get a whole bunch of juicy details.

So yeah, I'm definitely gonna use PeopleWhiz again. Maybe next time I'll have better luck finding that lowlife who stole from me and my family. But even if I don't, I know I can count on PeopleWhiz to give me the scoop on anyone else I'm curious about.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing and Inaccurate: My Experience with PeopleWhiz

and I wouldn't recommend this service to anyone.

PeopleWhiz is a website that claims to provide comprehensive reports on individuals. However, after subscribing and paying the initial fee, the reports provided are lacking in detail and often incorrect. It is disappointing to see that the information provided is incomplete and not up to the standards that were promised.

Furthermore, the website implies that only after paying an additional $19.95 can subscribers access the "premium report" which supposedly provides more in-depth information. This is a classic "bait and switch" tactic that is not appreciated by customers.

Overall, I am not satisfied with the service provided by PeopleWhiz and have decided to cancel my subscription. I would not recommend this service to anyone looking for accurate and comprehensive information on individuals.

PeopleWhiz PeopleWhiz Review: Inaccurate and Outdated Information, Not Worth the Price

I recently checked out PeopleWhiz to find some information about myself and a couple of my buddies. I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with what I found. A lot of the stuff on there was just plain wrong and out of date. Plus, they had mixed up some of my info with someone else's, which was super confusing.

To make matters worse, they had some people listed as my relatives who I'm pretty sure I'm not related to. And don't even get me started on the email addresses - they had a bunch of random ones in my file that definitely weren't mine.

Now, I know they're charging a monthly fee for this service, but honestly, I don't think it's worth it. They don't give you enough info for the basic plan, and if you want the "premium" report, they jack up the price like crazy.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend PeopleWhiz to anyone looking for accurate and up-to-date info. Save your money and look elsewhere.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Experience with PeopleWhiz: Inaccurate Information and Unhelpful Customer Service

I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed with PeopleWhiz. I decided to give them a shot and ran a report on myself, only to find out that they were saying I had some serious criminal charges on my record. Needless to say, I was pretty freaked out and wanted to get to the bottom of it ASAP.

So, I decided to run an update to see if I could get more information and figure out what was going on. Lo and behold, the update said that I didn't have any felonies at all! I mean, what the heck? How can they be so off base like that?

To make matters worse, I couldn't even print out the report they gave me. And when I tried to talk to someone about it, they were just plain rude and unhelpful. I mean, come on, if you're going to charge people for a service, you should at least be willing to help them out when something goes wrong.

I've used plenty of other search sites before, and I've always had great experiences with their customer service. But PeopleWhiz? Not so much. I definitely wouldn't recommend them to anyone looking for accurate information or helpful support. Save your money and go somewhere else.

PeopleWhiz Scam Alert: PeopleWhiz Review - Don't Waste Your Money on This Website

This website, PeopleWhiz, seems like it's just trying to get you to spend more money on their premium reports. They do have the information you're looking for, but they want you to pay an extra $20 for it. And that's $20 per person! When I realized that this app was a scam and that I would have to pay $20 for each family member I wanted to track down, I asked for my money back. They did give me some of it back, but only $8 out of the original $30.

It's important to note that there are plenty of other websites out there where you can subscribe and get the same information for only $20 a month. So, don't waste your money on PeopleWhiz. There are better options out there that won't try to scam you out of your hard-earned cash.

PeopleWhiz Stay Away from PeopleWhiz: Inaccurate Information and Terrible Customer Service

PeopleWhiz is a company that I would not recommend to anyone. They are the worst ever! The information that I received from them was completely inaccurate. The only thing they got right was maybe my name and birthdate. Everything else that came up was not even true. I even googled my own sister, who I know has three criminal records, and that never showed up. This is false information and a complete waste of time and money. When I called to cancel my membership and asked the representative why the information was so inaccurate, she hung up on me.

I was extremely disappointed with the service that PeopleWhiz provided. I was hoping to get accurate information about people, but instead, I got false information. It was frustrating to spend money on a service that did not deliver what it promised.

I would not recommend PeopleWhiz to anyone. It is a complete waste of time and money. The information that they provide is inaccurate, and their customer service is terrible. If you are looking for accurate information about people, I suggest you look elsewhere.

In conclusion, PeopleWhiz is a company that I would not recommend. The information that they provide is inaccurate, and their customer service is terrible. It is a complete waste of time and money. If you are looking for accurate information about people, I suggest you look elsewhere.

PeopleWhiz Mixed Feelings About PeopleWhiz: My Review of Their Background Check Services

So, I decided to give PeopleWhiz a try and ran a search on myself. I was a bit disappointed that they didn't tell me the costs up front, but I decided to give it a shot anyway. After all, I was curious to see what kind of information they had on me.

To get a one month membership, it cost me $27.99. However, I quickly realized that the report I received didn't contain any of the juicy information I was hoping for. In order to access that information, I needed to upgrade to a Premium account for an additional $19.95. I wasn't sure if that covered just the report or the whole month, but I didn't want to risk throwing good money after bad.

While some of the information they provided was accurate, I did find a few things that were suspect. For example, they listed a phone number that I didn't recognize and a relative that I've never heard of. I'm not sure where they got this information from, but it definitely raised some red flags for me.

Overall, I'm still on the fence about PeopleWhiz. While they did provide some useful information, I'm not sure if it's worth the cost. Plus, I need to make sure they aren't going to continue my subscription without my permission. All in all, I think I'll need to do a bit more research before deciding whether or not to continue using their services.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Accuracy and Limited Features: My Experience with PeopleWhiz

I decided to give PeopleWhiz a try and searched for myself to see how accurate their information was. To my surprise, they had my basic information correct, including my name and address. They even had a few of my relatives listed correctly.

However, when it came to my social media profiles and other limited features, the information was wildly inaccurate. My aliases and relatives data were also incorrect, which was disappointing.

I wanted to get a more detailed report, so I decided to try the premium version. Unfortunately, I encountered an error processing my payment, which was frustrating. I hope I don't get charged multiple times for nothing, or else I'll have to write a whole other review.

Overall, I wasn't impressed with PeopleWhiz. There are limited ways to get any inaccurate data corrected, or to get your erroneous data removed. It's not a special site, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for accurate information.

PeopleWhiz My Experience with PeopleWhiz: Not Worth the Money

I was pretty curious about PeopleWhiz, so I decided to give it a try. I wanted to see what kind of information it had about me. I gotta say, I wasn't too impressed with what I found.

Right off the bat, the site tried to get me to sign up for a monthly subscription by telling me that it had found "Multiple Criminal Records". Now, I know for a fact that I've got a couple of traffic tickets on my record, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't count as a criminal record. So, right away, I was a little skeptical.

But, like most people, I'm always a little curious about what kind of information is out there about me. So, I decided to pay for the subscription and see what else I could find.

Unfortunately, I quickly realized that the site wasn't all that accurate. For example, it said that I had lived in Montana at some point. Now, I've never even been to Montana, so I know that's not true.

Overall, I'd say that PeopleWhiz isn't really worth the money. It's just like so many other companies out there that are just trying to get your money. Don't believe everything you read on these sites.

PeopleWhiz Disappointing Results and Hidden Costs: My Experience with PeopleWhiz

I gotta say, I ain't too pleased with PeopleWhiz. I shelled out a pretty penny - $2,799 to be exact - for some info on Taylor Hall, and what do I get? A whole lot of nothing. The records they got on him are all messed up - they ain't got no marriage or divorce records, and the address they got ain't even current. And don't even get me started on the city of birth - they got that all wrong too.

I mean, I get it, sometimes records can be hard to find. But if I'm paying that much money, I expect some accurate info. And what really grinds my gears is that they want me to pay even more money to get double the info. That ain't right. They shoulda been upfront about what I was getting for my money.

Overall, I'm pretty disappointed with PeopleWhiz. They ain't delivering what they promised, and they're trying to squeeze even more money outta me. Not cool, man.

PeopleWhiz Slander and character assassination

I received the same information like many people here. When I discovered it wasn't trustworthy, I immediately cancelled my subscription. That was denied, so I informed them I would deny it through my creditor. When I was using my computer a few hours later, more ads popped up. They had been posted 10 minutes after our conversation. The ads mentioned me directly and they led the buyers to incorrect information. I called them again and told them I would be speaking with my attorney. The ads disappeared within minutes... Fortunately, they're saved on my computer. My question to everybody is: how much can I sue them for?

Desired outcome: I'll like to know what kind of actions you can take against them and do you know any other complaint boards? Thank you very much.

PeopleWhiz Paid for a service I didn't receive

I did a search on my records because I needed the date of a legal issue. I was lead to believe the initial $27.99 fee would provide it. Surprise! It provided just my name and birthdate. I needed to pay an additional $19.95 for that info I was seeking. Hated the extortion, but needed the info, so I paid this on PayPal, just like I paid the previous charge. I got a notice from PP that it went through, but the PeopleWhiz website said there was a problem with the PP account, please try again. Really? I didn't want to pay the first $19.95, and now they want me to pay it again? Nope.

I called their customer service number, finally got an agent and she said she could see where both charges went through. She'd refund my $, but it wouldn't appear for 3 business days. In the meantime, she wanted me to process this charge again. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? There was no working with her. It was either pay again on her word that I'd be refunded in three working days or nothing.

Obviously, this is a scam operation. I am requesting a thorough investigation from PayPal, and the refund of my money.

Desired outcome: I want all money refunded. $27.99 and the $19.95. The original charge only provided info that I knew - name and birthdate. And I never got anything at all for the $19.95.

My purchase this morning made me believe I would receive a detailed report of fiancé. This site and the services they provide are misleading. It says you will get a detailed report for $27.99. I paid this and People Whiz did not provide information it solicited. It wants you to pay $19.95 more to get the same info I just paid for. Please cancel my payment and send me a full refund. Thank you

PeopleWhiz William

I am 45 years old and proud that I don't have criminal record today Wednesday September 21st My Girl Friend received an email from peoplewhiz saying that my report was in and that it has found multiple criminal records for my full name and this is untrue I've never had anything more then a traffic ticket. This caused an argument with my GF as I had already told her I don't have a criminal record but your email says I do and that has caused an argument and defamed my character and is now causing me emotional distress.

Desired outcome: Stop lying to people to sell your product, write me a formal apology and offer a cash settlement for my emotional distress

PeopleWhiz Misinformation and fraud potential

This organization does not represent corrected information. They list deceased family members, addresses never occupied. They hold open the possibility for scammers and other near do wells to access your information with impunity. They need to be held accountable for their misinformation. You need to jump through hoops and over hurdles to get your information removed. Check with the BBB now handling complaints about Southern CAL (Orange and San Diego counties). For a price, in time and money, need to verify your "ID" just to be removed from their misinformation. I suggest contacting the Federal Trade Commission and your US Senators to see what one can accomplish to remove fraudulent information, etc. Either they will regulate themselves, or we will have the FEDS do that for them.

Desired outcome: Remove or opt-out your information without going through a minefield.

PeopleWhiz Fraudulent activity

My personal info was exposed through this website and as a result, I have had several encounters with fraudulent activity. The company has no right to reflect any of my personal info or yours for that matter, much of the information showed exactly where I've lived and currently living, relatives both dead and alive, etc.
I'll be getting an attorney and suing the [censored] right outta them!
Stay tuned...

Me too. They have stolen my SSN # and are associated with the dark web. How do I sue them. I have not slept in days and am afraid and having nightmares. How did these creeps get my SSN to sell on the dark web. Who are these criminals? Where are the police?

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

This is a relatively new people search site. I found it through a pop-up ad. Since I abhor such sites that post one's personal info without prior knowledge or consent, I gave it a look. They have me both related to and confused with somebody who has a similar name, but whom I have never met and who lives in a state where I have never lived or had relative...
