Total scam site designed to impersonate…
Total scam site designed to impersonate the CA DMV and charges you $$$ extra for what you could easily do on the DMV website without the upsell fees. Felt duped and tricked and then after Googling it, found out there are many complaints about this site. Even their so called "shopper approved" reviews are designed to remove 1- and 2- reviews and show an inflated review score of 4.8. Brilliant scam someone is making money off of!
Response from NeedTagsDec 28, 2024
Thank you for your review Brian. We appreciate you taking the time to voice your concern. NeedTags strives to provide full transparency at all times. We are not the DMV and make absolutely no claims to that effect. The NeedTags website in no way resembles that of the official State of California DMV website, not by color scheme nor layout. The NeedTags website is a '.COM" site, not a ".GOV" site. The NeedTags website, at the header of every page of the site, up to the checkout and beyond, clearly displays the following text... “NOTICE: NeedTags has been officially licensed by the California Department of Motor Vehicles to provide DMV services on their behalf. NeedTags is not owned or operated by any government agency and charges fees for value-add DMV services pursuant to CVC Section 1685. Standard service may be obtained from the DMV at no cost.” As for the benefits of utilizing our service, although the registration renewal interface (portal) for our users is online, the real work is done behind-the-scenes, by our awesome employees, and we're doing our very best to keep our offices staffed and continue offering our valued customers the expedited DMV services they've come to expect from us, including our super speedy next-day shipping, instant download of your renewed registration card, and our above par customer support. These are "value-add" services not provided by the DMV. Please contact our customer care department if we can be of any further assistance.
