When I clicked on the report. It said no longer available. I just did the search. ScamIntelius.com

Dear ****,Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We appreciate the opportunity to address them.After reviewing your account, we found that the phone number you searched did not return any publicly available records in our database at the time of your inquiry. This can happen for a number of reasons, including if the number is newly issued, unlisted, associated with a minor, or simply not included in the public records and third-party sources we are legally allowed to access and display. As a result, the system displayed the message indicating the report was no longer available.We want to assure you that Intelius does not create or alter information, and we do not show results unless data exists from verified public sources. Our service operates in full compliance with applicable privacy and consumer data ******* of today, your account has been fully canceled, and we have processed a complete refund back to the original payment method used during enrollment. Please allow 35 business days for the refund to appear, depending on your financial institution.If you have any additional questions or need further assistance, please dont hesitate to reach out to our customer support team at ************ or by emailing [email protected]. Were available from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. PT (10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. ET) (holiday hours may vary), and were happy to help.Sincerely,Intelius SupportReview fromJames S

This is not a background check website. The subject in question shows no results from this service. They in fact have 2 federal hate crimes and a *** crime on a minor both in feeder and criminal records and various state records. This service confirms the correct person and locations but no results. No customer service, difficult to cancel services, and no options for refunds. This is only a gossip site.Intelius.com

I did all of this inputting information and going through all of this teasing for me to put my credit card information in and for there to be nothing! Absolutely nothing provided to me!! What a waste of my time. I'm sure they will continue charging my credit card and as you read the complaints below, they always have excuses for this foolishness. Like you have to do this and click on that in order to get this then that. Or even though it reads free, it's not really free because blah blah blah. It's not good. Go somewhere else to get your information. Save yourself a headache.Intelius.com

This company continues to bill me for services I do not want. I have called them repeatedly, e mailed them and even complained to the State AGs office.Intelius.com

Dear ****, When a user activates their account, they must provide an electronic signature authorizing Intelius to charge their card as described, including for the automatic renewal of their membership. Our billing terms are conspicuously explained on our registration page and in our Terms of Use. Customers are sent a confirmation email for any orders placed on the site.The charges associated with the payment method in question have been disputed, resulting in a chargeback. When a chargeback occurs, it indicates that the account is in dispute with the financial institution, and the individual should contact the institution directly for any refund requests. The membership was promptly canceled and deactivated, with no additional charges to be incurred. Furthermore, due to the dispute, access to this account will no longer be attainable. Please do not hesitate to contact our customer care department at ************ with any further questions. We are available to assist you during regular business hours, from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Pacific time (10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Eastern time), Monday through Friday.Sincerely,Intelius SupportReview fromEileen S

It's advertised as a free phone lookup but after they run "billions of records" (while you wait) it then directs you to enter your card number to open up the name of the number you want looked up. This is a classic bait and switch. I will NOT pay $XX.** for a service fraudulently advertised as FREE!Intelius.com
