Does anybody have experience using skipgenie / skipgenie.com for skip tracing service? I’ve been looking for something and have come across lexus/nexus, TLO, and skip genie.

@JT Crownover @Andrew Michael TLO is a product of Transunion credit bureau which ranks 3rd out of the 3 credit bureaus.  Since more companies report to Experian and Equifax they receive updated information more frequently.  I'm not saying TLO is not a good product as I have never used it.  But take a look at your Credit Karma profile and I will bet Transunion is reporting on fewer accounts.  Companies like Lexis Nexis purchase credit header information from all three bureas (and many other places) and therefore have a more complete picture of the subject IMO.  Another problem with TLO is that it is hard to get approved for an account and if you do get approved it is too expensive for most to pay on a monthly basis.  This is where the companies mentioned above come in.  Premium data that is easy on the pockets!
