I called customer service and they were very helpful and friendly. They were to fix the program right away and the money went back into my account immediately. ----- ### "Check Mate" — 1.0/5 > **Gregory** | *February 23, 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Cons**: The service I received is different than what I originally purchased I am not satisfied with the quality of service I received I'm being charged for a service. > > Instant Checkmate is exactly that. As soon as you pay them money, they have you in Check Mate\! I paid for a background check on myself and most of the information was listed 4-5 times and then the rest wasn't even mine. You can't do an accurate without a person's SSN. The report given was absolutely useless and they won't refund, so I had to dispute it with my bank\! Bad business when you don't deliver the product paid for and then won't refund or make it right\! ----- ### "Decent compared to others" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *August 27, 2018* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use, for the most part it was pretty accurate, it's a decent tool to have in your resource Group > > **Cons**: Nothing really negative to say. A little more accurate information, but for the price it's a good resource to have. > > Customer service is great answer all questions Thorley and give explanations to them really enjoyed using this product. ----- ### "easy search" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *August 15, 2021* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This product is super easy to use. I was able to quickly verify the accuracy of the results. > > **Cons**: The log in can be a little buggy on some browsers, so I find myself waiting until I'm on my main computer > > I'm able to verify information quickly and painlessly with minimal impact to the day and resulting in less leg work for my clients ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2053377/instant-checkmate?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2053377/instant-checkmate) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
