“These guys are crooks!”

LouAnn S.

2/10/20

In my opinion, these folks are simply crooks! They quote a price, force you to check a box with their no-cancelation policy, then they send you an email indicating they will mail a packet to order your birth certificate, with additional fees. This 2-step process is completely unnecessary, and the failure to disclose additional fees disgusting. Go to VitalChek! It's cheap and does not require all this nonsense. You will note from other reviews that this behavior of requesting additional fees later is common with these people.

“Waste of money and time”

July 2nd, 2020

Deceptive website charging almost $130.00 to "facilitate" your passport application without making it clear that this does not include the actual fee (another $110.00) paid for the passport itself.
Far easier to just go to your local facility and get it done for just $110.00 plus photo.
I regret using this site.

“Their service is to scam people”

June 25th, 2020

I needed to renew my visa. Their site claim the process takes only few days. I've paid $129.95 for the visa renewal. However, they mailed me the visa form which is free to download from embassy website. I had to read the instruction and complete everything by myself. I could have downloaded the from myself. Their service is just download the forms and mail to you for $129.95 each.

“Why was my credit card charge and where is your Customer Service?”

February 27th, 2020

My credit card was charged in October for $98.95. I thought it was for a birth certificate I ordered from the State. I find out late January that wasn't the case, so what was that charge for? I called GovFilingsOnline on 2/3 and left a message; I sent an inquiry to them on their website on 2/5, then 2/12, and just now 2/27. No one has replied or attempted to contact me. I would appreciate finding out what I paid for, even it it was someone else's and being refunded if that is the case. Come on, they have to have Customer Service. Rating: negative stars

“Double charged”

We were charged double for our EIN. I have sent an email also would like one of the changes back today. I have posted a picture for proof.

Helpful (0)

Thank you

Tim S. – GovFilingsOnline Rep 11/24/20

Hi Ruby, keep in mind those are not charges, those are preauthorizations. There is a difference. For example, if there is a declined charge, that will still show as a pre-auth. Don't you think contacting us to help you would make more sense than leaving a negative review? You have not even contacted us. Please email us at orders@govfilingsonline.org so we can help.

“Scam, they Do Not file or get you any certificates per their own agreement”

February 25th, 2020

All they do is send you the forms that are downloaded free over Government Sites and mail the form to you. You Do Not get anything but a free form for their fees. You will pay the State Fees and you will have to mail it in with the form which you will fill out as well. They tell you that they will file and using their service will get you the certificates you think you are purchasing but you quickly find out you were scammed.

“Buyer Beware”

April 19th, 2020

The sole purpose of this website is to pretend to provide a service that makes passport renewal easier and charge you an exorbitant fee. You end up doing the same tasks that you do on your own, waiting several more days for mailing back-and-forth and dealing with the stress and confusion of an illegitimate service that is really a "non-service". As soon as you figure out that they don't cover your filing fee and that you've been ripped off, it's too late. They spend all their energy preventing you from getting a fefund and cleverly avoiding the long arm of the law. A true scam company!

“Buyer beware -Birth certificates - do it yourself”

March 5th, 2020

They do virtually nothing that you can't do yourself for free. Getting your birth certificate does not take special photo identification. They lead you to believe you are paying them to file and retrieve your birth certificate and that they cut through the red tape for you. For $59.95 it sounded okay, I would pay the extra from the $24 it actually costs from the county. Not the case, they send you paperwork you filled out online with a stamped envelope so you can forward that with a check to the county. So it costs you over $80. Buyer beware

Tip for consumers:
Go to the website of your county and call them. You can order your birth certificate online or by mail but you will pay 1/3 of what you would to pay this sketchy company.

Products used:
I didn't use it, but it was for a birth certificate. I ended up cancelling the request in which they provided a $30 credit to my card. They got $29.95 to do absolutely nothing.

“RIP OFFS... BE CAREFUL...”

January 20th, 2020

I was charged $195 for EIN ID from IRS that is FREE if I would have paid more attention to the site I was one. They misrepresent themselves as IRS because the form to fill out is the same form IRS has but IRS is free and I would have received it in the same amount of time. Also, the cost was not known until after you send it. If it is made know it must be hidden pretty good so you don't see it. Expensive lesson learned.

“Scam”

December 14th, 2019

I paid them for 2 services, birth certificate and passport paperwork. I had to reach out multiple times for both. I did receive the birth certificate paperwork which i realized I could of done it online for free. Then to top it off I never received my passport info, emailed many times asking for a refund and have not received my money or paperwork. Much better solutions and ways to get what you need.

Stay Away!

“All they do is send you the paperwork”

March 12th, 2020

So, for everyone who doesn't know, this site helps by getting you the paperwork. You still pay the regular filing fees after you pay them to, well I dunno, print off stuff you can get for free and mail it to you. It is a. Org site people, not a. Gov.

“TOTAL RIP OFF! DO NOT USE!”

June 6th, 2020

Do not use this "service", they are a third party that has NOTHING to do with the government. I fell for their website thinking it was the government since it was a. Org. I paid $59.95 to get an official copy of my birth certificate... I did not know that I can just go through the state website and get it for $30 ($20 +$10 processing fee). Even though I felt ripped off I figured, at least I will get it and only lose $30... then I got their documents in the mail and they want me to send another $20 check to pay the state for the certificate! So in other words they charged me $60... for doing something that I could do online for $10! They are a total rip off! Do not use them!

Question:

How long does it take to receive an amended birth certificate? i was adopted...

Answer:

Hi Devon, we do not offer service to file to amend a birth certificate. Frankly, nobody on the web offers a service to amend a certificate. You would want to file a certificate of amendment with the issuing government office to amend a record.
