Misleading website and invasive cancellation process
I recently used apply.usimmigrationsupport.net, mistakenly believing it was the official U.S. government website for ESTA applications. Only after submitting my information and payment did I realize it is a private company, not an official government site. The service fee was much higher than the official ESTA fee, and this was not clearly communicated in a way that made the difference obvious to me before payment. When I requested to cancel my application, they even asked me to submit a selfie (a photo of my face) as part of the cancellation process. I find this completely unnecessary and very concerning from a privacy and data-protection standpoint, especially since they already had my passport information. In my opinion, the way this site is presented is misleading, and their practices around data collection and cancellation feel invasive and unsafe. I do not recommend using this website. If you need an ESTA, go directly to the official U.S. government site instead.
