Transparency and support lacking. Edited Review.
EDIT: I received immediate and helpful correspondence from a senior specialist at Checkr after posting this. They apologized and also provided me the info that I was missing. I wish that their customer service team was trained to prevent issues like this from needing escalation, but nonetheless I appreciate their follow-up and have updated to a 3-star review. I had a Checkr bg check done about 3 years ago and it went smoothly and all checks came back OK. I accepted an offer for a new position (tech, not Uber) and submitted the check the same day I received it (Sep 19th). Monday I get an update saying that it will not be completed until October 7th. Then a few days later a text that says it's extended until October 19th. That's a full month, and is two weeks past my start date. Nothing has changed since I got my last check other than a new BS and an additional job. I logged them into ADP to verify the employer, and the transcripts should be easy to find. I tried to contact customer service and provided birth cert, ss card, passport, and DL, but they didn't read the form request and sent generic response letters instead. This company is a joke. There's too much on the line for them to be so cavalier with their customer service practices.

Hi Nathan, I'm sorry to hear about the delay, especially with your start date on the line. Some verification steps take longer to close out depending on what's involved, but that doesn't excuse being asked for documents you already sent or getting a form response that ignores what you asked. I'd like to get eyes on your file directly. I'm going to send you a private message through Trustpilot to grab your report details and figure out what's holding this up. Tony, Checkr Support
