Very helpful. Easy to use site. I received my results fast. They live up to everything they promise and I got my results in less than one hour! I looked at other sites and they wanted more money or wouldn't accept an American Express credit card. I would recommend to anyone who is in a rush to pay the extra price to have the reassurance that you will get your number in a timely fashion. I really don't understand the negative reviews because the site was easy to utilize and delivered what it promised within the hour.
This organization is terrible at providing the service that they represent. Spent several days trying to obtain an EIN number. Each conversation they said they would get back to me. After 4 days they finally got back to me explaining that nothing could be done until Monday. This after their site advertised that they could get it to me the same day. When I asked for refund they returned only half of my payment. My advice is make sure you are connected directly to IRS or SS as the need may be. Regrettable. Representative unduly surly. Stay away.

I had to call Simplified gov to get a better understand on how and should the trust I am applying for. I was handled by someone named Daniel. With patience he explained to me several times what type of trust I needed to set up. Then I had a problem with my email coming through to me and he called me back several times until I was able to complete the whole process. Excellent service!
They were very helpful in guiding me to get my EIN within the hour. Thanks, I'll give 'em *****. The only thing that would make me happier is if those two wonderful people who helped me would buy my cookbook, "Make 'Em Think You Can Cook" because part of the proceeds will also go to help the Special Olympics. Thanks again;

Very easy to use the company for my tax ID. Very helpful and informative online program. I would recommend this website if anyone asks. Thanks
This organization is terrible at providing the service that they represent. Spent several days trying to get this accomplished. Each conversation they said they would get back to me. Originally offered SS card by E-mail immediately. After 4 days they finally got back to me explaining that nothing could be done and the process takes two weeks. This after their site advertised that they could get it to me the same day. When I asked for refund they returned only half of my payment. My advice is make sure you are connected directly to IRS or SS as the need may be. Regrettable. Representative unduly surly. Stay away.
Their website is misleading. It led me to believe that it was a government website where I could apply for a replacement card. They don't tell you that they are not affiliated with SSA until the end of the process, when it is too late to cancel your order. I realized this about 10 minutes after completing the process. I then called the company for a refund, and was told I would get only a partial refund as I was past the time limit. I said "I just completed the form not FIVE minutes ago!" I am supposedly being issued a full refund. We will see. This is robbery.
QUICK AND EASY PROCESS FOR GETTING EIN FOR MOM'S ESTATE. BUT WE NEVER RECEIVED EMAIL THAT EIN WAS READY. AFTER 2 DAYS WE CHECKED BACK AND IT WAS READY BUT WHEN WE PUSHED SEND SS4 TO EMAIL MULTIPLE TIMES WE NEVER RECEIVED THE FORM IN EMAIL. SO JUST COPIED THE FORM AS JPG AND DOWNLOADED.
WAs very pleased and surprised with the ease of navigating especially since it involved the government. Quick results. Painless process for a DIY
Great customer service! Ana was especially super great in helping me obtain my EIN number. I would highly recommend. Thank you ever so much!
The process was quick and easy. My only displeasure was that I opted to pay the extra to have an instant EIN number but it was on a Friday afternoon in the mountain timezone and apparently I could not get the number until Monday as the offices were closed already. Should not accept or offer instant option after certain time each day.
Since getting a replacement SS card is free, they charge unsuspecting customers (like me) upward of $37 to send a PDF page that can be downloaded from the *real* Social Security government website for free... all you get, in essence, is a pre-paid USPS label.
Despicable! I hope I can get my money back.
Tip for consumers:
They pose as a government institution that will help you get a replacement Social Security card for a fee of either $37 or $93, but fail to inform you that the Social Security Office replaces cards for free. And in the process collect all of your most sensitive data. How are they allowed to do this?!
You make a process that would scare most people and turn it into simple steps and help is always there if needed.
Thanks
Very fast, easy, all questions were answered in a timely manner. Thank you so much for all the help
Really quick and easy. Received the number within a couple of hours. Easy to complete on-line form. User friendly.
I have read all the 1 star reviews and agree with all of them! I even called them scammers on the phone when I called to ask for a refund. Shame on me for trusting a site that looked like a government site. I will always read the fine print from here on out. I was told the supervisor would call me back but after reading some of the reviews I will not hold my breath. DON"T DO IT!
The rep was courteous and took me through the process, even though I was surprised to hear it was a third party company not until we were halfway through. It was not glitch-free and expensive, but I got the number THAT day!
Got My Tax ID Number In Just A Couple Of Hours! Money Well Spent, You Will Not Be Disappointed! I Hope This Is All I Need!
As most we live busy lives. This website was to save time and a trip down to the Social Security office. Talked with a representative even thinking this would be better (Diana Bell) Paid $97 when its FREE people! Just for me to still have to Fill in information. And then still proceed down to Social Security with Evidence of Identity (Drivers Lic, Passport etc) No copies excepted through the mail. Go early and just wait on the line.
I didn't know who to refer to for my company registration and God took me straight to GovSimplified. I was to have my EIN # in just a couple of hours. Everything was done. Unbelievable! I will encourage sincerely any one out there. You won't be disappointed.
This website is a scam. They took money with out my permission after they sent an email saying that all my info was erased. Then when I emailed them TWICE about a refund they sent me an automatic email BOTH TIMES saying "how great they are." If I could I could I would give them ZERO stars for lying and taking money and iformation. This company is a fraud and who ever created it should be ashamed. Don't use this website.
Representatives I spoke with were knowledgeable and helpful. Worked with me until I got it right. Provided information on what my next step is to be. Should have called the them first. Wonderful employees!
Very simple and the rep was so helpful. They walked me through the entire process. I'm new to this "world" and it can be a little overwhelming but GovSimplified made things so easy :)
Simple and clear instructions to follow. The application was not intimidating which made it easy to complete
This is the last place I would recommend to anyone to seek assistance with. If I could give 0 stars I would. My strong advice is to steer beyond clear or this company. The level of respect, articulation, and mediation will have you question the authenticity of any service offered. Supervisor Fernando behaves as a child and does not comprehend clean remedial English.
