FastFilings uses Predatory Business Practices
October 3, 2023

FastFilings has a 100% no cancellation policy, reaching them by phone is almost impossible and email communication is slow [allow for 48 hours for reply].
The website sells FastFilings on "a quick turn around" which is why I selected to use it to get my Cert. Of Good Standing. After paying I received an order acknowledgment and from there on NO communication or update. So if there is an issue with your filing that you want to resolve- tough luck. My experience with FastFilings was horrible. Be careful not to get cheated and deceived by them. Also be sure to keep printed copies of all email correspondence.

Horrible and Rude
March 29, 2023

Paid and had some questions and got a rude email back from one of their employees saying if they had any questions they would have asked. Long story short I paid and did not get what I asked for and was told your money will not be refunded. Order number to company wants to take a look at it. CS*******

Best service out there
March 29, 2023

This is the best service out there for getting a certificate of status or good standing. My law firm has ordered from lots of different services and fast filings is the best and the fastest and the most helpful.

We will for sure use them again and again and again. Thank you Tammy for being so helpful.

This is the best filing service out there. Their technical know how is insane. It's very hard to be able to files sales tax permit requests for all states. They are the only ones that do it and know how to do it.

They are the ones to use.

Mistakenly filed State of Information thru Fastfilings on 3/21/24. Paid ridiculous expensive fees $69 and State of Information fee $25 for total of $94 and thinking State of Information will update instantly. Bank checked and no updates so I had to log into sos website to pay the State of Information fee $20 to update instantly which requested by the bank. Sent email to Fastfilings on 3/21/24 to cancel the transactions. Fastfilings.com processed the transaction on 3/22/24 and refused to refund and cancel the transaction. This is a scam and has no refund of business for customers. It's ridiculous expensive $94 for getting the State of Information. I would never use this service.

I ordered a California Statement of Information filing from Fast Filings. They emailed me right away because they caught a mistake that I made, and emailed me to correct it. Wow! Talk about great service. Within 1 day, I had the completed Statement of Information in my inbox from them.

I would strongly recommend Fast Filings for your business filing needs. It's much easier than going through the state and filing by paper.

The web form was super intuitive and straight forward.

I just completed the formation of this LLC 1/20/2023. Received a notice that I had to file a form of good standing. Upon filing the form the charge was $98. I have filed the forms for other LLCs and the charge was $10 if filed in Jan and the late fee was $50. I do not under stand why I had to file a report when the LLC was formation in Jan. Then the fee was excessive when I recently filed the new form?

I googled California Secretary of State and somehow ended up on their website. You can tell from their responses to complaints that it is their intention to fool people into using their services. "We told you", "You confirmed"... SCAM. I filed the document myself immediately after noticing my mistake and it cost me $20. They charged $103.95 and say THEY filed. Why would the Secretary of State accept my filing if they did it already?

Hello, yes, if you hired us to file for a Statement of Information, then we would have probably filed and processed that the same day. We are crystal, crystal clear about the service description and how the service works, and you actively have to agree to it before ordering. If you didn't like the service, then why would you hire us? We unfortunately can't entertain this complaint as valid.

Complete lifesaver service!
September 14, 2022

We are a new business in California! We have our own ice cream truck. While signing up to do an event at a concert, they informed us that we needed a California seller's permit or we would not be able to be at their next concert. Concert. Next concert was their biggest event of the year. It was a Tuesday afternoon when I received the news that I needed the seller's permit. I went online and purchased it here and paid for the rush order! The next morning my seller's permit was in! Complete lifesaver. Nowhere in my wildest dream that I imagine I would get it that quickly. Thank you thank you thank you thank you! Thank you so much!

As Advertised - Fast & Efficient
February 26, 2021

Was skeptical of using this website to apply for a client's Seller's Permit on a third party website rather than directly with CA Tax & Fee Administration.
As advertised the website was fast and efficient. Very pleased.

Quik and smart

Being completely ignorant on the matter, I was guided efficiently. Since I was requested to produce this document by banks here in California, just tried; hope it went well.

Simple site
December 11, 2020

The website is very simple and straight to the point.
There are not too many intangibles. All you need is five or so minutes and you are done. Compare to all the other privates middle and go in-between sites out there that are l should say are sometimes very ridiculous it is quite a breeze.
I will recommend this site anytime.
I wanted to do the standard filling time of 10-15 business days period but opted for the 3 business days option just as an appreciation of the simplicity of the site.

There is no email in contact, that makes a little suspicious.
I assume they do not want you contact them directly, for the service response, there is complete form you can contact either.
It looks like they make a quick money and block your refund request immediately when you find out the truth, 129.95 service fee for passport renewal, that is a kind of greedy.

Thank you Fast Filings for fast and great service I appreciate it. I ordered a wholesale license filing request for an Indiana wholesale license. Getting one directly through the state is very difficult and time consuming so i was for sure a bit skeptical that fast filings could even do it. They quoted 3-5 business days of processing.

The license was emailed to me in 2 days. Faster than they quoted.

Great service, will definitely use them again in the future.

I used Fast Filings to order a seller's permit for my business because we are going to start selling some physical products along with our services. I first tried to order through CA directly, but had lots of trouble using their online system. It's really confusing.

So I found Fastfilings.com, and I couldn't believe how quick and easy it was to order. And then more surprising, is that they had the California Seller's Permit in my inbox in just a few hours.

What a stellar experience. I don't tend to go out of my way to write reviews in general, but I figured Fast Filings deserved my review. Hats off to them.

I needed a permit urgently and the government website was down at the time I applied. I was very upset. Luckily I came across fast filings and they offered speedy service for a reasonable price. I am very impressed with their simple application process and follow up email notifications. I received my permit the next business day. I highly recommend fast filings. Great experience and thank you so much.

Easy Peasy
December 16, 2020

It's way to easy to register a new DBA. Took me less than 19 minutes and i am so slow. Anybody who can answer questions relating to your name, address, phone number, email address and social security number, can do this.
