Leading people search & information provider operating from a purpose built Call Centre close to Leeds City centre. Although operating a number of activities via the internet, it is very much a 'bricks & mortar' company and welcome customers making telephone or written enquiries. Around 50,000 telephone calls and 50,000 mail items per month are processed and it will trace well in excess of 100,000 people during 2004.

Started in the late 1980's it is now the largest people search company of its type in the UK. Charges are kept to a minimum as a result of the sheer volume of instructions received. Clients pay either £19.99 & £35.00 for a full trace investigation and are only charged if they are successful. A full trace investigation is far more than just a search of the various databases that are available to anyone on CD. Each case is fully investigated by an individual Researcher and during this process a number of different techniques are used to create leads and follow up enquiries. Some of their competitors charge around £250.00 for a service that gives a comparable success rate (in excess of 80%) and levy a fee upwards of £100 if unsuccessful! You should only instruct on a no success no fee basis. 1st Locate grew out of providing tracing services for Banks, Building Societies and Utility companies. It is the preferred supplier to a number of the UK's largest Utility companies, Banks, Building Societies and Local Authorities receiving 1000's of instructions every week.
