Swift filings makes it nearly impossible to cancel your subscription. Their FAQ's clearly says you can "easily" cancel by email. You cannot! They will reply to you email stating that they will call. You can also try to cancel by live chat, you cannot! They will spend quite some time getting you to verify information and asking nonsensical questions, and then tell you someone will call you…

I created an account on Swyft filings website did a basic package which doesn't cost anything it's free. When you are ready to register your taxes, they do it all for you at which point the state cost would either come out of your tax or you'd owe Swyft filings that money for their work.

Here's the kicker they don't work they don't do anything. I ended up not using that LLC I never filed any money under that LLC I never paid Swyft filings anything. Year and a half later they claim I owe them $800 funny part is according to the state I live in the business LLC doesn't even exist so they didn't do a $#*!ing thing and trying to steal money.

Tip for consumers:
Beware any “company” that doesn’t allow you to cancel with out speaking to someone.

Fellow customers who are looking for service providers for LLC registration services, stay away from this company.
They misuse your saved cards to deduct hidden subscription payments which you can only get to know from your bank alert when it's deducted.
Once you speak with their customer care regarding the concern,you get to know in 2 minutes they have baited you and it's too late. They don't refund.

They don't disclose anything about extra services that cost $300. I complained about the charge I never agreed to, a service no one even uses. Total scam place. I should have read reviews first.

Tip for consumers:
You can’t even get a response or manager besides we “tried” to call you.

I paid Swyft $150 to file a DBA application for my LLC. I was told to expect my application to be completed by a date-certain, 7 days after submission. That date came and went. I contacted Swyft and was told the process could take 3 weeks or more, depending on the state. This was news to me since such a timeframe had never been mentioned before. Had I known it would take so long, I would never have paid them to do the application. I was misled by the company and asked for a refund. They are not interested.

I've been dealing with swift filing now going on about 8 days. No fault of my own I have been held up they've gotten all the information that they needed when they say you're going to do something they don't except for when they say they're going to collect the money they do that in a hastily manner. They do not do their due diligence if you expect to get what you pay for that's a crap shoot. I'm being held up because I cannot fill out the ein application that is in my account I instantly started having problems with my account there is over 15 emails to Swift filing that I have emailed them multiple times a day every single day. They do not read your emails. You can tell by how they respond. They will not help you with your problem they're not helping me access my account what they're stating is you're holding us up because you haven't filled out the application that's all they say I cannot fill out the application of gaining asset without getting access to my account. If you want to be irritated and just want to throw something then this company's perfect for you perfect then but if you want a company that actually does what they say they're going to do in the service does her do diligence doesn't hold anything up just cuz they don't want to work do not use Swift filing they will take your money but they will not do these service!

Tip for consumers:
Do not waste your money and try and file anything with swift filing do not go through them for your EIN number go to the IRS to get it for free fill out there ein application send it to the IRS you're going to get that EIN number in 1 hour so filing three or four days if you have problems with your account you're never going to get it but they're going to keep the money. Again fair warning do not use this company if you want to turn around and just lose your money roll it up roll up $100 bill li

Swift filing I paid for an EIN number a hard number and an llc. Did not receive any of those did not receive help with my problem of it gaining my access to my account it's like I paid and they went away. I'm telling you right now if you want to be irritated definitely goes for filing if you want somebody who does due diligence after they take your money do not use Swift filing it'll just irritate you every single minute of the day because you know if they're not going to help you can tell in the emails that they send you after you tell them what's problem. I do not recommend this company to anyone not even my worst enemy do not use Swift filing they take your money they do not do their job!!!

This company is terrible! The "fine print"has cost me well over $1,000 that I was not expecting to incur from using Swyft Filings. When I contacted them about the additional cost I was basically made to feel like an idiot. The only thing I'm ignorant about is thinking this was a reputable business who could help me get an LLC. Biggest mistake I've ever made..

Worse experience of my life. A lot of hidden fees they don't tell you about. They will charge your credit card with out authorization for things you are not aware of. They lie every time they open there. They barely speak English. Stay away from this company. They are about taking your money and they don't care how they do it.

Look at their google reviews. They have a 1-star rating. I've been waiting for over 4 months to receive my corporate docs and have yet to receive anything. It is difficult to receive any support from your company. I had someone call me yesterday after me calling and leaving messages for 6 days. They could not assist me and told me that they had to speak to a supervisor and that they would call me back in 30 minutes. I never received a callback. Your company is unprofessional. I am requesting a full refund.

Swyft Filing used to be great late last year they changed their subscription prices and sent a notification they were raising prices but did not get my permission and charged my card on file. I have tried to get them to refund my money but even with a "100% money back satisfaction guarantee" on their website they have just given me the run around. Very disappointing. I used them a lot but won't anymore.

Please consider the reviews before deciding to work with Swyft Filings. This was disappointing and extremely costly. Be sure to check and review your account. Otherwise, you will be charged for services you did not authorize. This is certainly not the way to start a new business venture.

It did work to get a US adress - Was a lot more costly than advertised. I will probably have to call the credit card company for them to stop taking money. Request to cancel have been unsuccessfull.

The website says $49 filing fee to start a nonprofit. I had previously done all of the filing of necessary documents myself and successfully gotten a nonprofit started. But, I figured it would be helpful to get some assistance with the process this time. Within about a week they had charged almost $2000 to my debit card. I had to terminate my subscription with them because I was totally out of money. But they continued making huge charges to my account AND made the document rd I had already paid for so I can NOT access them.

Try giving them a call or using the 'Live Chat' function on the website. You will NEVER reach a customer service agent, you WILL be asked for a call back number and you WILL wait at least 24 hours or more like 48 to get that call. The Live Chat is simply an email system so no chatting with any agents.
There service is poor, I am still waiting on various permits required to sell and given there USP is supposed to take this admin away from a startup company my advice is research and do it yourself.

Do the work yourself

Stay very far away from this company. They are a complete scam. They will charge your credit card monthly and do not answer phones or email.

I used Swyft to open a business and I told them I no longer needed their services--I thought our transaction was finished. However, they apparently marked themselves as the default representative to the state of Nevada. When I tried to get this changed-- they were vague and told me I would have to login to complete it with the state. The state has their email and password, which Swyft wont assist me with to change them from the default registrar. They also informed me that was being charged a large amount of money to "be my registrar." Apparently I was in default with the state and they never told me. The Swyft representative admitted that they were not really acting as a registrar as they never notified me my account was in default with the state. He said even though I asked that my account be cancelled-- I was technically unable to do so. They would not help me further in this matter and I am very frustrated and it appears they defrauded me for services never provided.

Tip for consumers:
If use swyt-- make sure to ask how they will charge for future services (that are not told to you when you sign up)

Poor -0/100 Poor consumer service, they never pick up your phone call all robot answers nothing. Oh you need to pay fees scammers keep charging unknown fees.
I paid for the premium package assuming everything is included but unfortunately once I paid the fee, everything else that I will probably need came up separately that I had to pay additional fee for.

They helped me start an LLC. No problem. If they're your registered agent they charge you each year to send you one email. Not great but... they QUADRUPLED their rate this year to do absolutely nothing. I asked them to dissolve my LLC and they wanted to charge me an additional $149. Basically they are now charging almost $600 to do Absolutely NOTHING! Unscrupulous. They're service is awful. Stay away!

Auto enrolls you in unauthorized post service billing. States it is for "Compliance Guard" to ensure you are in compliance with state rules. The only rule to a company is ensuring you have an agent. I am my own agent as stated when filing. Compliance guard is a hidden, non advertised fee and they post bill you a year after they do a filing. BBB shows 170 complaints, and now thousands here. Next step will be either a class action lawsuit and or contacting the attorney general in the State of Texas where they are from. No, they DO NOT contact you back at all. How can one cancel a hidden service if no one responds to allow them to cancel even if there was a legit service, which there is not. Each state is required to maintain an agent of record for their company. "Compliance Guard" is something made up. There is no such service. Laws have been the same in each state since the beginning of time. I work in legal, and this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of.
