Today, I'll show you how to remove yourself (and loved ones) from BeenVerified.
What you'll need:
- An email address (I have a junk one that I direct all of these types of emails to)
- The BeenVerified webpage.
- A browser that supports multiple tabs (this will really help if you have multiple requests)
Step 1:
Navigate to www.BeenVerified.com and scroll to the very bottom of the page until you see the listing for FAQ.
Step 2: Click on the FAQ Link. This will take you to the FAQ Page.
Step 3: In the left panel, click the "Opt-out Instructions".
Step 4: Click the "if you would like to opt out of our People Search results Click Here" link. (shown below)
Step 5: When you click on the link, you'll be taken to a search page where you'll need to enter your name. REMEMBER: YOU WILL NEED TO OPT OUT FOR EVERY ADDRESS YOU'VE LIVED AT AND EVERY NAME YOU'VE USED (e.g. Ladies, if you were married, divorced, and remarried, you'll have 4 names you'll need to find and remove including your maiden name)
Step 6: Scroll through the lists to find your names. Once you find yourself (or a loved one), click the "That's Me" button next to the entry.
Step 7: Now you will need to enter your email address. THIS DOES NOT COMPLETE THE PROCESS. Once you enter your email, the site is going to send you an email.
Step 8: IN YOUR EMAIL, find the email that will be from BeenVerified.com. This was very quick when I did it, but you may want to go ahead and search for more names while you wait.
NOTE: The site DOES limit you to 1 opt-out per email address.
Step 9: Open your email and click the confirmation link. This is a big long text string- you can't miss it.
Step 10: A new tab will open in your browser showing a receipt page. But you are still not done.
Step 11: Wait until you receive a confirmation email from BeenVerified before you are done with the removal. You do not receive a confirmation email, contact their customer service line:
