I'd like to purge some of my info from the interwebs, and was considering trying one of these services. Does anyone have any experience with them?

Mozilla offers one now and it should be better I think.

They subcontract it out to a third party, who's name I'm forgetting, that doesn't have a great reputation.

The only 3rd party I can find connected to this is Have I Been Pwned. Are they not reputable? Or is this not who you're talking about? Genuinely curious as I was thinking about trying out Mozilla.

Can't find it now, but I believe I originally read about it in here: https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1alzzep/exclusive_mozilla_names_new_ceo_as_it_pivots_to/
