This looks to be a very useful site - almost too good to be true! But before I shell out the required subscription, does anyone else have experience of using it?

"GovDeathRecords (.) co (.) uk"

Many thanks

I think it is too good to be true and I would steer well clear. I'm sure I've read somewhere that people who have signed up for it have found that the records available are mostly US based.

Half the records that they list are not available to Joe Public in the UK, such as Criminal Checks, Mugshot Records and Inmate Search. They also offer an FBI Search which definately suggests that it is a US based site!
