Electoral rolls

Post by Hilary »

Which is the best/cheapest site to try and find someone in the 21st century?

I have the name of the person but am trying to find an up to date address.

I use Tracesmart http://www.tracesmart.co.uk/
They don't use the credits system but offer a series of 'continuous access periods'. The basic one is a full continuous 24 hours access to the 2001 to 2012 ERs for just £3.50. That means what it says so if you log off the site within the 24 hours you have to stump up again. I have usually found anyone I was looking for within a couple of hours. The site has an 'age decade filter' that allows you to narrow the search field as well as a 'district filter' and the results include other residents in the household of voting age.

One snag with the online ERs is that folk now have to option of 'ticking a box' to be excluded from the commercially available rolls. So you should check the early rolls first.
