Clearly a phishing website! I was trying to get my usual car registration through the DMV and they emailed me that DMV is down and they will give me a quote. The quote is $100 more for nothing. Luckil... See more

Worst customer service ever

Worst customer service ever. I needed to get this done ASAP and could not wait for an appt at DMV (6 weeks out). I sent in all the paperwork on April 20th and waited for them to reply. I received a response that my copies were blurry, so I resent. On May 20 one MONTH later, I asked why havent I heard back? I get a response that maybe their emails went into my spam/junk folder. Nope not there... Told them so. they said please re-send documents. Once again I sent them, it's been a week now and still have not heard back from them. Now that my tags are expired and I will have to pay a fee, I guess I will be making that DMV appt after all.

Excessive Charges for service provided

I received email from carregistration.com. The cost of renewal through them is $67 while the cost to renew directly on the CA DMV site was $20.42 since I used my credit card. It would have been the $20 registration fee if I used a bank account. Carregistration.com's fees are excessive for the service that they provide.

Scam

Scam, this is nearly impersonation of the DMV.

This is a middle man service that reaches out to you with your vehicle information so they can hand your payment to the DMV for a fee.

Quick and convenient

Quick and convenient. There is a processing fee, but well worth it if it means I don’t have to deal with the dmv. Paid my fees, got immediate proof attached to my email and got my tags two days later.

Totally predatory website

Totally predatory website. THey pay to be above the rmv and it confuses people, specifically senior citizens. I don't know why they are allowed to parade as the dmv , but the attorney general in my state has been notified . This is preying upon senior citizens and it's completely unnecessary when anyone can easily complete online transactions directly through the DMV without a 3rd party masquerading as the dmv. DIsgusting company

Great for people who run out of time or close to the due date of the registration renewal. For a $300 registration, there was a Service Fee, Convenience Fee and Shipping Fee (totaling over $40). If you're not careful, they'll charge a $29.99 Fee for Express Shipping. You have the option to change it to1st Class Mail of $2.99. If you have the time, mail the payment to the DMV and save the excess fees.

They're a horrible company.We paid over 500 when it was only 389 at dmv hoping we could get car out of tow yard last weekend. You pay a convenience fee but nothing convenient about this website.You pay extra then they say they can't process and don't know when they'll be able to costing us even more money.DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY,GO TO DMV KIOSK INSTEAD

Was skeptical at first but i took a leap of faith and Car registration.com came through big time. Yes they have convenience and processing fee, but they save so much time. Especially if you’re late in your reg and can’t do it through DMV online. Who wants to leave their house to go to the frickin dmv right now in this pandemic. Thank you for honest service.
