You must click the email verification link – the opt-out is not final without it

After submitting the form, NeighborWho sends a verification email. The removal request is not processed until you click Verify Opt Out in that email. If you miss it or the link expires, you will need to restart from the beginning with a new disposable email address.

One opt-out removes you from both NeighborWho and BeenVerified

NeighborWho.com is powered by BeenVerified and they share the same database. A single removal request through the NeighborWho opt-out process simultaneously removes your record from both sites. You do not need to submit a separate request on BeenVerified.

Step-by-Step Opt-Out Guide

1

Access the opt-out link on NeighborWho.com

NeighborWho does not have a standalone opt-out form. The removal process starts through the privacy link in the site footer, which redirects to the BeenVerified opt-out system.

Action

Go to neighborwho.com, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click Do Not Sell My Personal Information.

The link redirects you to the BeenVerified opt-out portal. This is expected – NeighborWho and BeenVerified share a database and the same removal system handles both.
2

Search for your record

The opt-out portal has a built-in search. Use it to find your profile.

Action

Enter your first name, last name, and state in the search fields, then click Search.

If you have lived in multiple states, search each one separately. Try name variations including maiden names or middle names if the initial search does not return your profile.
3

Select your profile

Review the search results and identify your record. The listing will show your name, general location, and age to help you confirm it is yours.

Action

Find the profile that matches you and click Proceed to Opt Out.

If multiple records match you – for example, from different past addresses – note each one. You will need to complete a separate opt-out for each profile, including a separate email verification each time.
4

Enter your email and complete the CAPTCHA

The system requires an email address to send you the verification link needed to finalise the removal.

Action

Enter a disposable email address, complete the CAPTCHA, and click Send Verification Email.

Use a throwaway address from SimpleLogin, AnonAddy, or a spare Gmail account. You need to be able to receive email on it because the verification link is sent there.
5

Click the verification link in the email

This is the step that actually completes the removal. Submitting the form alone is not enough.

Action

Open your inbox and find the email from NeighborWho or BeenVerified. Click the Verify Opt Out link inside. Check your spam folder if it does not arrive within a few minutes.

The verification link expires. If you do not click it promptly, the request will not be processed and you will need to restart the entire process with a new email address.
6

Verify removal from NeighborWho.com

The 24 to 72 hour window starts after you click the verification link, not when you submit the form.

Action

Wait 24 to 72 hours after clicking the verification link, then go to neighborwho.com and search your name to confirm your listing no longer appears.

Clear your browser cache before searching. Also check BeenVerified directly since both sites share the same database – if your record is gone from one, it should be gone from both.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does removal from NeighborWho.com take?

NeighborWho.com typically processes opt-out requests within 24 to 72 hours of you clicking the email verification link. The clock starts when you confirm, not when you submit the form. After 72 hours, clear your browser cache and search your name to confirm your record is gone.

Does opting out of NeighborWho.com also remove me from BeenVerified?

Yes. NeighborWho.com is powered by BeenVerified and they share the same database. A single opt-out removes your record from both sites simultaneously. You do not need to submit a separate request on BeenVerified.

Is opting out of NeighborWho.com free?

Yes, completely free. Never pay anyone claiming to remove your listing from NeighborWho.com. The opt-out process runs through BeenVerified and costs nothing to use.

What if I miss the verification email or the link expires?

The verification link expires after a short period. If you miss it, the request is not processed. Restart the entire process from Step 1 using a new disposable email address. The previous request does not carry over.

Can my data reappear on NeighborWho.com after I opt out?

Yes. NeighborWho.com and BeenVerified draw from public record sources that refresh periodically, which can reinstate removed listings. Check the site every 3 to 6 months and repeat the opt-out process if your record reappears.

What if I have multiple records on NeighborWho.com?

Repeat the full opt-out process for each individual record, including a separate email verification for each one. Each profile must be removed individually even though they are all in the same BeenVerified-powered database.

What if I cannot find my record in the opt-out search?

Try searching with name variations including maiden names, middle names, or initials. Also try each state you have lived in separately. If your record appears on the main site but not in the opt-out search, this is sometimes a sync delay – try again after a few hours or contact BeenVerified support.

Request Submitted

Your opt-out request has been submitted to NeighborWho.com and the email verification link has been clicked. Your record will be removed from NeighborWho and BeenVerified within 24 to 72 hours.

What to do next

Wait 72 hours, then search your name on NeighborWho.com and BeenVerified to confirm your listings are gone. If you found multiple records, return to Step 1 and repeat for each remaining profile. Set a reminder to check again in 3 to 6 months.
