"Surprise fee buried in footnotes — poor CX"
What do you like best about BackgroundChecks.com?

The ordering flow is straightforward, self-service, and quick to navigate. It’s easy to choose packages and submit candidate info without back-and-forth. The site feels reliable and professional, and results come through as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BackgroundChecks.com?

A surprise $98 fee appeared after purchase with disclosure buried in footnotes. When I asked support, I received a templated response pointing back to the fine print. Fees that materially change the price should be surfaced proactively (popup or inline warning before checkout). The lack of transparent pricing erodes trust and makes budgeting harder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Taylor Seems of BackgroundChecks.com

Thank you for your feedback, Weh'yee. We understand that pricing transparency is critical, especially when passthrough fees can impact the total cost. These charges are imposed by local government to access court record information and are not set by our business. That said, we recognize the importance of making this information as clear and visible as possible. These potential fees are currently surfaced to customers twice prior to submitting their order. We’re continuing to improve how they’re presented so customers can better anticipate total costs. We appreciate you sharing your experience as it helps us improve.

"Quick, Deadline-Saving Volunteer Clearances Service"
What do you like best about BackgroundChecks.com?

The service provided was limited to obtaining the clearances for our volunteers. The quick response to our needs considering a short deadline was most appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BackgroundChecks.com?

Backgroundchecks.com was the secondary provider for this service which when my sign-in problems was resolved, everything went very well. We processed our volunteer check-in through CharityEZ.com, who in turn used Backgroundchecks.com for the clearances search. I had difficulty getting my Log-In to work due to some miscommunication between the CharityEZ.com and me. When resolved I was satisfied and we met our deadline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Taylor Seems of BackgroundChecks.com

We apologize for any inconvenience you faced with the sign-in process and are glad it was resolved satisfactorily.

They only offer background checks in the USA and we often have team members from other countries, so I have to use another company to fulfill that need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
