1/3/22

Onlinedivorce.com sold me on the "platinum" service with the guarantee all the necessary forms would be filed with, and accepted by, the correct court. At the moment, that has not yet happened. Online Divorce has been a huge waste of time and money.
I did receive several documents filed with the court. However, the final document, the one the judge will sign, has not been filed with the court. Nevertheless, I received an email from the Online Divorce support staff informing me everything was done and that my "platinum" service was now complete.
Given that the name of this company is "Online Divorce" and not "Online - file a few forms and then leave you hanging", I assumed, and was assured by customer service, that I was paying to get a divorce. Instead, it looks like I will need to hire a lawyer and just wasted a lot of time thanks to this company's ignorance of local family court laws.

I'll be sure to update this post as things develop.

Tip for consumers:
Using Online Divorce does not guarantee one a divorce. Research all the filing requirements for your case in the specific county it will be filed in. After completing all the forms, and being assured by Online Divorce they would take care of filing the forms with the court, I found out that there is a mandatory attorney review that will take an additional 6 months if I don't hire a private attorney. I found this out from the court not from Online Divorce.

It's not much fun to admit to being scammed - but sometimes your life can only serve a warning to others. CareerExcuse.com has been around for 12 years and seems to have some credibility in the reference for hire market. Unfortunately, past performance is not an indicator of future results. My experience, after paying out $200 to CareerExcuse.com, is, FORTUNATELY, no results. I say "fortunately" because each time I spoke with Jennifer Hatton, "senior partner at careerexcuse.com", she was slurring her rabbling words while insisting I listen, yet again, to... I don't even know what she was saying but If you have ever ended up sitting next to the drunkest person at the party, then you have heard Jennifer's story.

The websites used by CareerExcuse.com, as well as their wildapricot portal, are hallow marketing ploys. After wasting a few days of my time promising a professional, well supported reference, Jennifer offered to "sort everything out by text" - but she was just too busy to actually do it on that day, or the next... - not that I would ever want Jennifer to speak with a prospective employer.

As far as I can tell, the service consists of Amey and Jennifer personally fielding a call from your prospective employer and reading off some boilerplate reference. CareerExcuse.com is a drunken mess that will beat you out of 200 bucks, waste your time and make you a sucker!

Tip for consumers:
Move on to another site.
