How to Opt Out of FastBackgroundCheck (2026 Step-by-Step Guide)

Difficulty Medium
Removal method Removal portal + CAPTCHA + email verification
Time required 5 minutes to submit; removed within 24–72 hours

FastBackgroundCheck keeps its removal tool on a separate page from the main search site, and the flow requires locating your own listing first rather than opting out by name and email alone. It's a few more clicks than a single-form site, but the process itself is straightforward.

Step 1: Go to the removal portal

Go to fastbackgroundcheck.com/removal — this is a dedicated tool separate from the general search on the homepage.

Step 2: Find your listing

Enter your full name and state, then search. Review the results and click through to the listing that's actually you.

Step 3: Start the removal

On your listing, follow the prompts to select the opt-out or "remove" option for that record.

Step 4: Verify by email

Enter an email address for verification. FastBackgroundCheck sends a confirmation link to it — solve the CAPTCHA and submit the removal request, then open the email and click the link to finalize it. The opt-out isn't processed without this last click.

Step 5: Confirm and wait

FastBackgroundCheck's own materials describe processing within about 72 hours, though data has been reported to disappear within 24 hours in some cases. If your listing is still visible well past that window, their support line — (888) 747-4094 — can help locate and remove it; have your report details ready when you call.
