Cancel Public Data Check: Easy Method
What is Public Data Check
Overview
Public Data Check is an online service that searches public records and other open sources to produce a single report per subject. The service is used for background checks such as tenancy or employment screening.
Where it operates
The service appears to operate from the United States and provides searches across multiple public sources. There is no publicly confirmed New Zealand office address for the company.
How to cancel Public Data Check
If you subscribed via App Store (iOS)
- Open your Apple ID settings (Settings > your name > Subscriptions) and locate Public Data Check.
- Tap Cancel Subscription; Apple controls iOS subscription management and the provider cannot cancel for you.
- Cancellation stops future billing but access typically continues until the end of the paid period.
If you subscribed via Google Play Store
- Open the Google Play Store app, tap your profile > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions, and find Public Data Check.
- Tap Cancel subscription and follow the prompts; some apps also provide a deep link inside the app to the Play Store subscription page.
- Cancelling stops renewal; you usually retain access until the end of the paid period.
If you subscribed via the website (web)
- Log into your Public Data Check account on the website and look for account or subscription settings to cancel.
- If no online option exists, contact the provider's support by email or post using the address below and request cancellation in writing.
- Uninstalling mobile apps does not cancel a web or store subscription - cancellation must be completed through the account or store.
What happens when you cancel
Access and billing
Cancellation typically prevents future automatic renewals but does not immediately remove access during an already-paid period.
You retain use of any paid features until the subscription or paid period expires unless the provider states otherwise.
Data and account
Canceling a subscription usually does not automatically delete your account or stored report data.
If you want personal data removed, request deletion explicitly from the provider and keep a copy of that request.
Will I get a refund?
Platform refund rules
- Apple handles App Store refunds and the provider cannot directly issue iOS refunds; use Apple's report-a-problem system.
- Google Play may offer refunds within about 48 hours; after that refunds are typically at the developer's discretion.
- For web payments, refunds depend on the provider's stated policy and payment processor rules.
Exceptions and special cases
Some regional rules such as EU withdrawal rights (14 days) do not automatically apply in New Zealand; check platform and regional policies.
If you believe charges are unauthorised or misleading advertising induced payment, you can dispute the charge with your bank or raise a complaint under New Zealand consumer law.

Notes on GST and billing

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Misleading conduct and refunds
The Fair Trading Act prohibits misleading or deceptive conduct in advertising and sale of services in New Zealand.
If you were misled about the service, you can complain to the Commerce Commission or seek a remedy, including a refund, through the provider or through dispute channels.
Payment disputes and chargebacks
For unauthorised or disputed charges, contact your bank or card issuer promptly to ask about chargeback or reversal procedures.
Platform-specific rules (Apple/Google) still govern refunds made through their stores; the provider may have limited ability to refund store transactions.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Some users praise Public Data Check for a user-friendly interface and useful confidence-level indicators in reports.
These positive comments tend to highlight quick access to multiple public sources in a single check.
Critical feedback
Other reviews report serious concerns: 1-star reviews allege unexpected recurring charges, data inaccuracies, and misleading 'free' claims.
Some reviewers also express frustration about value for money and incomplete or outdated information in reports.
Documentation checklist
Before you cancel
- Screenshot or save your subscription confirmation or receipt (date, amount, payment method).
- Note where you subscribed (App Store, Google Play, or website) and the account/email used.
If you seek a refund
- Keep copies of communications with the provider and any screenshots showing misleading claims.
- Have transaction IDs, bank statements, or store order IDs ready for banks or platform support.
Common mistakes
Assuming uninstall cancels subscription
Users often uninstall an app and assume the subscription is cancelled; uninstalling does not stop billing for store or web subscriptions.
Always check your Apple ID, Google Play subscriptions, or the account on the provider's website to cancel.
Expecting automatic refunds
Expecting an automatic refund after cancellation is a common mistake - refund eligibility depends on platform rules and the provider's policy.
If you need a refund, follow platform refund procedures or contact your bank promptly if you suspect unauthorised charges.
