I needed to find out if my brother-in-law's wife was still technically married to her previous husband. So, I searched Google for a website that can search for public marriage records. I chose to go with Unlimited-Records.com because it came up as a Google sponsored link. However, as I later found out, neither Unlimited-Records.com, nor Google, should be trusted.
I signed up with Unlimited-Records.com for 3 months of unlimited access for $36. Plus, I opted for unlimited databases search with lifetime full access for $14.95.
It was only after my credit card was billed that they hit me with the websites user agreement. To make a long user agreement short, it basically said that they are not required to provide you with any public records at all. Also, you may not enter the website if you are a prosecutor or member of law enforcement. VERY SUSPICIOUS.
Once I entered the website, my suspicions were confirmed. Most of my public records searches turned up no results. Sometimes, it would say it found results, but clicking on the "view" results link would bring up a web page that said "0 results found."
Also, the website says that a paid membership provides the member with "unlimited" lifetime full access to it's database searches. Yet, certain searches are limited and require additional payment to do more of them. Once again, this is something they DO NOT disclose before they charge your credit card.
The website claims that it searches over 80 million public records dating as far back as 1969 when it conducts a search. Yet, according to Unlimited-Records.com, nobody I know was ever born. None of the married people I know were ever married, including me. Yes, I'm married. The two people I know who have filed for bankruptcy never actually filed for bankruptcy. My mother doesn't actually own or live in the house she has owned and lived in since 1985. All of my friend from high school never existed. And, my grandmother didn't die 2 years ago. Apparently, my wife's mother and grandmother never died, either.
Doing a public records search on Unlimited-Records.com isn't doing a public records search at all.
Trusting a website simply because they are a Google sponsored link is foolish.
Don't waste your money. Avoid doing business with this website!!!
