How Do I Cancel My Intelius Account


Intelius is an online background check provider. It was created to provide personal background checks for people looking to gather information on such people as neighbors, romantic interests, teachers, and other personal connections. It is not meant to be used in making determinations regarding housing, employment, or credit and is not classified as a consumer reporting agency. While the service cannot be used in a professional format, it has many benefits for someone looking to gain more information than a simple Google search would provide. Intelius searches include information regarding criminal records, court judgments, property records, and more. Though Intelius is a helpful service, you may find that you do not lead it on a long-term basis. If you need to cancel Intelius, the process is simple. To cancel your Intelius account, you will need your name, date of birth, address, and email address.
