Ripoff website
Ripoff website. They sent me mail to my home address for business filing. I knew it was coming up so I thought nothing of it until I saw the price went up by more than 2 times compared to last year. They're basically soliciting business owners close to renewing their filing and redirecting them to their scummy website instead of the actual state website where it will take you the same amount of time and with less than half the price to do what they claim to do for you.

Beware! This company is scamming small businesses!
This is a scam! Predatory company pretending to be the state filing platform for small business but are actually a third party charging high for the same registration. Appeared I was filing directly with government when I was not.

Predatory company preying on uneducated…
Predatory company preying on uneducated business owners. Sent me a letter that my annual filing was past due, with a QR code. I scanned it and immediately realized that it didn't take me to the Secretary of State website. Went to the SoS website, and my annual filing was up to date.

We’re sorry to hear that you viewed our mailed notice negatively. Business Filing is an independent private filing service that assists business owners with annual reports, renewals, filing preparation, reminder services, and related business support. We are not affiliated with any government agency.
Our notices are sent to businesses with upcoming filing deadlines to provide business owners with the option to use our filing services or file directly with their state on their own if they prefer. Our communications clearly identify our company as a private filing service and include disclosures regarding our services and fees.
Our notices also advise recipients to disregard the mailing if their filing has already been completed, as there can be delays between state processing records and mailing timelines.
Many business owners choose to use professional filing services like ours for convenience, reminders, and ongoing support, while others prefer to file independently. We respect both choices and strive to provide transparent communication regarding the services we offer.

Sends False or Misleading Letters…
LOUISIANA ANNUAL REPORT
Past Due: 3/ 24 /2025
That was the top of the letter in a large white font with a Larger Blue Background.
It is totally false!
They Sends False or Misleading Letters hoping to get you to sign up with them for filing what most people can file for themselves on their respective Secretary of Website. At least with the Louisiana Secretary of State.
I say false because it States that my annual report was overdue on 3/24/2025. It goes on to say my newly formed LLC was in jeopardy of being administratively dissolved had I not caught on the the “may be”
The date they claimed the Past Due Annual Report was due was the date of it being approved as an LLC!
This scare tactic statement is nothing more than a phishing scam to get your information in hopes that you hire them to do what you can do for yourself without additional fees from them.
“ LOUISIANA ANNUAL REPORT
Past Due: 3/ 24 /2025
TriVets4Vets, LLC
Entity ID # 46396643K
The Annual Report for TriVets4Vets, LLC
MAY BE ADMINISTRATIVELY DISSOLVED OR REVOKED IF THE ANNUAL REPORT IS NOT FILED.”
*All caps denoted what was in bold print!
TriVets4Vets LLC, was formed March 24, 2025. Is current and not required to file an annual report until March 2026. That’s almost 8 months from their Past Due Date!
5 Star Reviews say they are good.
They may provide the services that they state in a timely manner but at unnecessary added expenses (their charge) from other reviews of at least $175!
They seek your business through less than honorable means. To me that makes them a less than honorable business!!!!
I will be filing a complaint against them with the State and Federal Agencies regarding misleading or scare tactics claims.
While they may not have broken the law because they used “may be”, they are definitely not being honest in their approach. When dealing with legal matters, especially with Government do you want to rely on such deceptive statements from the company you choose?

We appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns and would like to clarify a few important points for future readers.
Business Filing is an independent private filing service that assists business owners with annual reports, renewals, filing preparation, reminder services, and related business support. We are not affiliated with any government agency, and our communications clearly disclose that we are a private filing service and provide information for businesses that prefer to file directly with their state on their own.
Based on the entity information included in your review, it appears this may have involved a newly formed business entity. In some cases, recently created business records or public filing data may result in notices being generated prematurely or before a filing is actually required. While our notices are intended to help businesses avoid missed deadlines, we certainly understand how receiving a notice in that situation could cause confusion, and we apologize for any frustration the mailing may have caused.
We also want to clarify that our services are entirely optional. Many business owners choose to use professional filing services like ours for convenience, reminders, and ongoing support, while others prefer to file independently through their Secretary of State website.
If a filing is determined not to be necessary or cannot be completed in a timely manner, our policy is to cancel and refund the order accordingly. We strive to provide transparent communication and responsive customer service to every business owner we assist.

These guys are preying on the ignorant
These guys are preying on the ignorant. Business records are public record, and they take advantage of small business owners by sending them letters, the month of the license's expiration date, and threaten to dissolve their LLC if they don't refile. I knew mine was up this month and this letter was on my desk, on top of the state's actual renewal notice. I read the fine print and had my suspicions. Followed the link and went through the process, just to see what it looked like. When they wanted to charge me $175 I decided it was enough and went directly to Utah's business licensing website on their .gov page and renewed....for $18.00.
These guys are a scam.

NOT Official Renewal Notices!
This company sends very official looking letters that make you think you need to file your Annual Report for your business. I'm an average IQ guy and they fooled me. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY.
