Terrible service – no refund, no response
I paid for a service I never received. They promised a refund several times over the phone but then completely ignored my emails. Avoid this company at all costs.
My experience here was deeply…
My experience here was deeply disappointing. It fell far from what I would call fast. I chose them cause I expected they would keep to their expedited service and have it delivered on time. Even if it was just a renewal the wait time they gave was much and even when it was past that they never updated me again about it. I was devastated as I was expecting a quicker delivery. Desperate for a solution, I went doing some digging and found an lnstagram seller holoprofiles! From them I was able to place an order for renewal and they were quite decent in their dealings. They had it delivered within agreed dates.
SCAM!
SCAM!! Don't fall for it. We did within 3 hour service and we did not get US esta. And missed our flight.
When we called their customer care, we could talk initially in the beginning and then could never reach them.
Completly USELESS
Completly USELESS
pay 300USD for express - what a joke
response needs 24-48 hours if you get somebody you get someone to speak with
US Gov fees not included
wrong unreliable shipping infos and on cross link to US Gov Website
all of that you dont need GOV ASSIST at all and if you do it directly costs are at 1/3 of it
Scam
Scam. Google should be ashamed as they come up first when you search for ESTA applications. Don’t ever use this company. Use the govt website. It’s always quick and you don’t pay 10x the cost to be cheated out of your money.
Visa assistance Scam
While searching for info about how to go about applying for a Schengen visa,the 1st site that popped up was GovAssist. This was Aug 14,2024. By the name I thought it was a government site as I have also applied for visas for other countries. They advertised visa processing,documentation etc so when they asked for payment of $198.99 each per person I paid thinking it included assistance plus the processing fees since it was way above the usual visa application fee of $104. They assigned ang agent who sent me the application form & I filled it up online. Once completed they messaged me that I’d have to pay then they will assist me in getting a slot for biometrics. After about 2weeks the agent notified me that there were available slots but unfortunately I wasn’t able to secure it. So the agent said he’d monitor for any slots but I could also check myself for available slots. After about a week,Sept 6,I was able to secure slots & scheduled my appointment at the center for Sept 16. Then on Sept 11 the agent had the gall to send me a reminder about the appointment as if he was the one who booked it. Then at the center,confident that the fees were paid only to find out that it wasn’t! So the $198.99 each for 2 persons was only for that measly effort of assisting the filling up of forms & that one time that he advised us of the available slots!
I think they should put the disclaimer in bold print at the very beginning not at the bottom of the page. They are purposely leading the clients on with false advertising!!
Scam
Scam
Looks almost like official site for us visas but they are not
they should not put themselves first on google
they put themselves first on google if you search for esta, which is kind of misleading.
esta went trough, i was sent the document no problem. they also confirmed to delete all my data.
i just think they charge way too much and try to impersonate the official gov website. I hope they are very strict with their data security and truly delete information as requested.
Just one big scam
My wife, who hasn't travelled very much saw the govassist site at the top of the google search and thought that was the official Canadian Government site. She has been charged £47 for an EtA that should have only cost $7CAD. Appalling misrepresentation, and one big scam
I completed the application but at end…
I completed the application but at end realised that this website is at best a third party supplier and at worst a scam - stealing your passport information and personal details. It cant provide VISA because it doesn't provide a facility to scan the passport chip or facial recognition. I didn't pay but am concerned about my information.
Was a total rip off
Was a total rip off. Dont use this site! Paid 5 times the amount that I needed and not even sure If its an actual visa as I re applied for a new one.
SCAM and how to avoid
The only way to make this SCAM business (company) is to click their advertisement link, everyday on google.
For every click they have to pay to google, and this is the only way to get them out of this fraud business.
I put one star wen it should get no…
I put one star wen it should get no stars this company told my partner he would have a shengen visa in time 4 his hols and if he paid more he get it quicker they took over 300e out of his bank 3 emails later to them with no reply he got a call on fri to say he will not receive his visa and he is to still wait on an appointment after 5 weeks wen normally its 15days. This company is a complete scam as he was in with bls spain and they never heard of gov assist don't touch this company my partner has lost over 1000e over these
It's a scam
It's a scam! They took $59 in processing fees when the official website (we discovered after) only charged $12 for a UK visa. I've been trying to get them to respond and get a refund, per their policy, for the last three days without any response at all from them. Now, I'm just worried about what they can do with the passport copy I uploaded.
scam 100% the pretend to be a gov web…
scam 100% the pretend to be a gov web site but is a scam

It’s scam
It’s scam, they deduct 59$ and after that requested 140€ and all that amounts were a fraud. They look like officials but it’s professional scam.

GovAssist are scammers
GovAssist are scammers. They debited R2517.88 on the 18th & 23rd of March and R3626 on the 21st of March 2024, without my authority. AdrianP promised to refund it. They still haven't refunded. They send reviews themselves as if they are a good company to deceive people.
