Overall Rating: 3.8 / 5 (Very good)

US Search offers background checks that include a broad range of information, but since the company is not FRCA-compliant, the results of its background checks can not be used by employers or landlords. People who want background checks for other purposes, however, will find a number of attractive features here. The company has a customer help area with searchable database. Customers will find phone numbers listed in checkout and receipt mailers.

US Search offers service through a subscription model. For $19.96 per month, you get access to unlimited search reports. The company doesn't offer per-report pricing.

US Search provides an extensive search of criminal and civil court cases, real estate records, and other legal information. Unlike most of its competitors, it also provides information about people's social media accounts. However, the company does not perform credit checks and consequently its reports can not be used for making decisions about employment, tenant screening, or any purpose covered by the FCRA.
