      I think this is a scam. They advertised it would cost $1.00, and then said there would be a shipping charge of 6.99 (?!) I let the charge go through. However, my credit card company contacted me, and when I checked the transaction, there was a charge for $29.00! I tried to sign into the account, but was unable to do so. When I called customer support , I was unable to connect to anyone. I kept trying to reach the telephone number given, but couldn't get connected, They said they were open to 10 P.M., but it was only 7:00 PM when I made these calls.

      I am going to call my credit card company to report this is a scam, and tell them to deny the claim for money from this company, and that I did not authorize a charge of $29.00! And I am reporting Checkpeople, LLC as a shady company, using deceptive methods.

      Like a lot of other people on here, I fell for the "one time use" scam. I was very careful to avoid anything that had a monthly fee (it does offer a subscription, but I selected the one time use option) and still they started charging me $29.17 a month.

      I tried to call their customer support, but the person on the other end pretends not to hear me (I have called 6 times with the same result, from two phones.)

      I am turning the charges over to my bank as fraud.

      I just bought my own background review from Checkpeople today, October 13, 2023. My report is 38 pages and by page 9 I had a quantity of 74 wrong listings from my height, weight, relatives, phone number, email address and over 62 known associates. Again, I was only on page 9 of 38 with this many discrepancies. I called their 800 number, spoke to a very nice young lady and requested to "OPT OUT" from their website and information. I asked where they pulled their data from and was told the credit buraus and voter registration sites?
      Please do not use Checkpeople. I give them zero stars, but this site will not allow me to submit my feedback if I click at least 1 star. There should be a zero star option.
      Thank you. SCS.

      I was charged $29.15 for over 16 months, when I only signed up for one time use, which it was supposed to be $1.00. I was charged over $466.40 (I think they didn't give the correct start date of the charges). I only used them one time only, and didn't know about the monthly membership; I was going through a really hard time, and was looking for information.
      When I asked the CheckPeople Rep regarding my activity with them, he told me he couldn't help with that information, and that they don't have access to it.
      I want a refund of the $466.40 paid, no service was provided.

      Thank you for your time!

      Don't trust them .
      If you do a 1 time transaction they sign you up for a permanent subscription on auto pay without your permission .
      You can't even trust results coming from someone that frauds you like that .

      Very deceptive policies. I thought I was paying one dollar for a one time use. I then get a charge for 29.17 and I called them immediately and they will not refund the money. This practice should be illegal they are stealing your money.

      I agreed to pay $4.99 for a one-time look at my personal info. I was charged an additional $6.99 that same day and another $29.16 three days later with no explanation. I feel ripped off.

      This company is using deceptive practices. They say it’s one dollar for the report. It’s going to be a lot more than one dollar once you give them your credit card number they made unauthorized withdrawals from my account one for $29 one for $6.99. Normally, when you check out you’ll see a price that you’re agreeing to when you give them the credit card information. But not with these guys they just want your credit card without giving you any amount. It’s a scam it’s criminal and I hope enough people complain and the police do something about check people.com. I wanted to run a check on myself before I applied for a government position. The report was very in accurate to say the least. Buyer beware!
