and places of employment.

How successful are your searches? |
|
Most clients receive between 30 and 60 percent successful hits, much higher
than the industry standard. Your experience may vary, depending on a number of
factors including the age and quality of the data you provide. There is no
charge if we cannot locate an account.
|
What is your Queued Search service?
|
|
This is a no-charge, opt-in service. We will perform a monthly search of a
client’s non-hit subjects in an attempt to locate an open account. This way,
our clients are notified soon after a subject opens an account.
|
What information do you provide?
|
|
We will provide the bank name, address and phone number of the institution where
the subject opened the account, along with the account’s routing number.
|
Do you obtain the account numbers?
|
|
We do not obtain or report account numbers due to federal trust laws.
|
Do you verify that an account is open before you report it?
|
|
Yes.
|
Can you provide process service for my garnishment?
|
|
Our sister company, Tag Messenger, specializes in process service for the collection industry. They provide process service nationwide.
|
How are bad hits handled?
|
|
Refunds are given for false positives, whenever an account can be verified as closed. Simply
provide the bank’s court answer to receive a refund.
|
Do you provide "raw” searches?
|
|
A “raw” search asks for all accounts, open and closed. We will perform this type of search at a client’s request. The fee is considerably lower per subject and there is a much higher return of hits.
|
How long does it take?
|
|
We begin your search the same day we receive it. Depending on the number of cases you submit, it will take from three days to three weeks to search all available data.
|
Who can use this service?
|
|
Attorneys, collection agencies, judgment enforcement agencies and private investigators can use our service for a permissible use, such as collecting a debt. All clients must complete an application and be approved before any work can be done. Please do not submit any data until your application has been approved. |
