FastBackgroundCheck is a people search, reverse phone lookup, and address search service. It is a non-FCRA compliant service that provides background data for public inspection. The website stores billions of records in its database to serve extensive background reports to members of the public. Since the site does not conform to the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), its records cannot be used for credit, employment, or tenancy screening.

Users of FastBackgroundCheck can find records using full names, cities, states, and zip codes. These searches can be personal or on a third party.

FastBackgroundCheck offers free and premium services. Free users can obtain information such as address, phone number, age, email address, city, state, associates, and social media links. They can also:

  • Expose a person who has been calling or texting them
  • Verify someone's identity
  • Find information about people or businesses that reside at a specific address
  • Find a list of previous owners of a property
  • View the previous residents of a property

FastBackgroundCheck also has a phone number directory where people can search phone numbers based on their area codes. Users can also access a register of the most popular last names in the United States.

Premium customers have access to additional features, including a background report with the following information:

  • Arrest and criminal records
  • Misdemeanors and felonies
  • Registered sex offender records
  • Warrants and police records
  • Nationwide court records
  • Evictions and foreclosures
  • Bankruptcies, liens, and judgments
  • Speeding tickets

Individuals can remove these records from the website with FastBackgroundCheck's opt-out procedure. However, the requester must be the owner of the record.

How to Opt-Out of FastBackgroundCheck

FastBackgroundCheck allows people who find their data on its website to initiate and complete an opt-out process to remove personal information. This procedure is as follows:

  1. Visit the FastBackgroundCheck website.
  2. Go to the bottom section of the page and click "Do Not Sell My Personal Information".
  3. Fill the form with an email, tick the agreement box and CAPTCHA, and click "Begin Removal Process".
  4. Search for your record by entering your full name, city, state, or zip code.
  5. On the search results page, select the record. Then click the red "Remove my record" button to complete the process.

After the request, FastBackgroundCheck will delete the record. Opt-out requests are only accepted when they come directly from the owner of the record unless the removal is required by law. In some cases, FastBackgroundCheck may request identification before processing a request. People requesting to have their records removed from the site do not have to be registered or paying users.

The service does not indicate how long after the request is made before the removal occurs. For more information on the process of opting out or for any issues with the process, requesters can contact FastBackgroundCheck's customer service with an online contact form, via phone at (888) 747-4094, or by mail at:

What Difficulties Exist when Opting Out of FastBackgroundCheck

FastBackgroundCheck’s opt-out procedure can be completed within a few minutes. However, the public records provider does not state how long it takes to remove a record from the site.

Another difficulty that may come up while opting out is that the individual who requests the removal may have the request declined as FastBackgroundCheck reserves the right to refuse a data removal application.

Nevertheless, anyone whose online request was denied or who requires additional information on the removal process may contact the service by phone at (888)747-4094, through a contact form, or by mail to the address below:
