 I placed order on line and proided them with my address . They apparentky filed with the wrong address and the computer from the IRS did nor except the address.Instead of us highway 19 they got 319 , so Irs did not accept the address so nothing was files keep in mind I paid them more than 1100 for their services . They still end up collecting $55 dollars for refiling which they didnot do and still giving me run around for a month .

They said they have a recording that I gave them the wrong address but they will not provide me with the evidence I have no choice but to pay them

today they send me the paperwork to fill up with the signature while they did my signature on the previous paperwork without getting authorized by me So I got ripped of big time I have no LLc filed yet Dba got approved with the wrong address

They were very friendly when they wanted my money. I cannot even talk to the superviser They said If the supervisor will talk i have to pay then 300 more because apparently they are doing me a big favor

Do not use legal zoom ...

legal zoon confusing customer service experience

AUTHOR: karen - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, December 03, 2013

Below i attached the email  correspond and the payment structure. I should not pay for fein number to obtain because it was not obtained before but than they transfer me to the department for dba and the guy told me basically i have to pay it all any ways as you can see the money refunded originally the found a way to take it back. I paid them today for my tax id because I am sick and tired of fighting with them

I will do my DBA myself as I anm not willing to pay $180 more and I still have to pay them around $192 dollars next month for not providing anything

 

Thank you for your email.

We apologize for your frustration and I have reviewed your order. The amendment order that was placed for you was done as a courtesy to correct the address that is listed for your LLC with the state. If your DBA address was also provided incorrectly, then you will need to submit a new DBA order to resolve. As a courtesy, I will give you a store credit for your previous DBA order that you can use to purchase your new DBA, but you will need to pay any new county filing fees.

I have issued the store credit of $99.00 today and you will have 60 days to use the funds towards your new order.

Dear Kiran,

 

Thank you for your email.

 

We apologize for the poor experience you had while transacting business with our organization. It is LegalZoom's goal to provide its valued Customers, such as you are, with exceptional service during every interaction. Your comments and experience are important to us and we appreciate and welcome your feedback. Please be reassured that we will forward your comments to review our operations and determine where improvements need to be made.

 

In reviewing your order, the call was reviewed and determined that LegalZoom did not make the error in the business address, however as a courtesy all LegalZoom fees were waived for filing the amendment and you were allowed charged the required state filing fee. Your original LLC filing was not delayed but the address issue was questioned in your DBA order and we contacted you resolve it right away. We filed the amendment on an expedited basis and we expect to receive confirmation of filing back by the end of this week. You may also check the filing status online directly on the state website.

 

As an additional courtesy and in effort to regain some of your satisfaction, I am happy to offer you the business license package you purchase free of charge. This means a credit of $75.00 will be applied to the account and be deducted from the balance you still owe. This means that you will now only owe $382.99 on your remaining installment payments.

I am so called the victim. I pacifically asked the person that i needed the llc done asap and  I got the premium service you guys got and signed legal zoom as my registered agent , and than I ordered the dba through legal zoom and apparently

But I am stuck paying you guys customer REP was rude and said that if you go a head and file on your own than to it,but you have to pay our fees, it felt like that it just about you got your money and hell with the customer

And how come I will give the wrong address ,as if I do not know my own home address.

I was told that the supervisor review the tape and I gave the wrong address but they refuse to  give me the recording on top of all the fees I end up giving $55 amendment too which in the first place is your fault.

Everybody seems wanting to help there, but nobody actually does, anyways I just need to know when my filing will be it is close to the  month now.

And I could not have known the filing details If i had not log into my account , nobody had the courtesy to even call and said that your filing was delayed because of the address 

I am losing weeks of my business operation

Hi chyna
The credit you gave me they apply towards fein obtain and so end up paying 50 dollars more for service agreement I thought I was charged for that before since we never filled fein before 
I am really confused with the service . The girl I talked to earlier she filled all these for me I have to only talk to the guy for DBA but he end up asking all information again and filled the things again 
What is going on I am not sure in the meanwhile my DBA is still not done
At this point I am really tired arguing I paid whatever they ask me
DBA is still up in the air . I will call IRA and state department may be they can help 
At the end all the arguing for nothing you guys end up charging the original amount and I end up paying for all the amendments
