Pattern of Complaints

On July 3, 16 & 31, 2019, BBB attempted to contact LocateFamily.com, regarding a high volume and pattern of complaints. BBB received complaints alleging private consumer information is being publicly reported on the website. The removal request is an automated process that can only be completed if the consumer provides an email address or send a copy of their state-issued ID card. The business failed to resolve seven of those complaints through BBB’s complaint process. 



BBB notified LocateFamily.com about the pattern of complaints and asked them to voluntarily cooperate in eliminating the pattern by providing a written response outlining specific steps to avoid similar complaints in the future. BBB also requested general information including copies of policies, the names and full contact information of the business’ principal officers and responsible management, copies of its promotional and advertising materials, the physical address of its principal office, and a completed BBB Standard Business Questionnaire.


As of Aug. 8, 2019, LocateFamily.com did not respond to its pattern of complaints or BBB’s requests for information.



BBB has concerns about LocateFamily.com’s business practices and urges consumers to use caution based on the business’ complaint activity and lack of responsiveness.

BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
