Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
www.corporateregistries.ca and www.corporateregistries.com Here is my experience with them: On March 1, 2010 I filled out an online application for registry services with www.corporateregistries.ca to perform an Alberta corporate registration for me as they advertised on their website they could do for $99.99+tax and govt fees. In return for this payment they would perfom all of the filings and prepare and deliver the organizational minutes and minute book, corporate by-laws, issue share certificates, director, shareholder, and officer registries, and a shareholder ledger. My Visa credit card # was provided in the request however I was subsequently instructed by an email from corporateregistries.ca to make payment via credit card using a third party website 2checkout.com which it turns out is located in the US.After following the instructions I was informed by 2checkout.com on March 3 that they were unable to process my order as the account with Corporate Registry Solutions Inc (the company behind corporateregistries.ca and corporateregistries.com) was no longer active for payment of registry services because 2checkout.com does not accept payments for registry services. In an email exchange with Jose Nino of CorporateRegistries.ca (Google this guy and youll find hes the registered director of this company in both Canada and the US and not just the business development consultant his email signature claims him to be) he advised that they were in the process of negotiating with a new credit card payment vendor and asked that I pay their $99.99+GST fee via Interac which I foolishly did on March 5. At that point communication from Jose Nino or anyone else (if there is anyone else) from CorporateRegistries.ca ceased and no further corporate registration services were performed nor was the advertised package of documents that I had paid for delivered. I was able to complete my corporate registration by dealing directly with s local government authorized registry office whom CorporateRegistries.ca had initial sent some chickscratched partially filled out forms to; whom they had provided my credit card details, however they did not respond to any follow up from the Registry agent for proper completion of the process. Once I saw a charge hit my credit card from this local registry office I contacted them directly and it became clear I would have to work directly with them and that the fee Id paid corporateregistries.ca was for virtually nothing. Again none of the books, share certificates, or other related documents promised as part of their "Online Incorporation Service" for "$99.99 in 24 hours" were provided in the days, weeks or now months that followed despite providing them all of the completed incorporation certificates and documents in pdf format via email. Calls to their listed 1-888 # revealed that the # is not in service. Repeated email requests for either a refund or supply of paid services and documents have gone without response or action for over a month now. This company is clearly operating a scam across N.A. offering people registry services in every US state and Canadian province but provides nothing once payment is made in a direct deposit (interac) method; ie. a method that cannot be traced or reversed as in a credit card or paypal protected/insured transaction. My mistake for trusting them, but hope that others read this and avoid beingripped off like I was by this unscrupulous and fraudulent online business! A fraud complaint has been filed with the RCMP with copies forward to the FBI, as well as my local police business crimes unit.Hopefully others ripped off by this online site will file similar complaints to assist the RCMP and FBI with prosecuting those behind these fraudulent online sites.

The responses have bad english and all, so I doubt there's any Canadian employees at all at this "company."

Thomas, if you live in Winnipeg, contact me and let's have coffee.  I want to look you in the eyeballs so you can respond to your company's horrible reputation.

I too am a customer that feels "duped."

Their response speaks volumes!

#5Author of original report

Thu, May 13, 2010

I am so very thankful for a website such as ripoffreport.com.  Why?  Because after nearly two months of complete silence from corporateregistries.ca here at last is something from them, posted one day after filing my complaint on ripoffreport.com no less!  Apparently they were incapable of responding to my repeated email requests for over a month as to the status of my order and when I might expect delivery of all documents, and equally incapable of picking up the phone to discuss the situation with me, and incapable of even sending good old fashioned snail-mail, anything!  They now appear to be fully capable of responding to a public complaint about their company and FINALLY providing some of the documents I had paid for, albeit in a very public manner violating not only their own stated privacy policy: (http://www.corporateregistries.ca/Privacy_policy.htm) but also potentially running afoul of Provincial and Federal privacy legislation by posting private corporate documents on an unsecure public website.  Their poorly written rebuttal above and actions of posting corporate documents online rather than simply contacting me and providing them in a professional and secure manner speaks volumes to the quality and integrity of this company wouldnt you say?  Their rebuttal also serves to demonstrate exactly the sort of communication one can expect from them poorly written and unprofessionally penned by someone for whom English is clearly not a first or even second language.


To be clear, I placed an order with corporateregistries.ca on March 1st, 2010, and not April 1th 1th??  Really??  I paid them their service fee of $99.99+GST via Interac (bank cash transfer) on March 5th.  After that, silence.  Numerous email requests for an update as to the status of my incorporation order went unanswered for days, so I contacted the government authorized registry agent in Edmonton that corporateregistries.ca had utilized and provided my credit card details to.  It turned out they too had been getting no response from corporateregistries.ca despite repeated email requests for more details.  The forms they had received were incomplete and missing key documents.  Working with that government authorized registry agent I was able to complete and provide all of the necessary documentation and finalize the professional incorporation process within a week with no input or assistance from anyone at corporateregistries.ca!  Regardless, I still forwarded all copies of these finalized incorporation documents to corporateregistries.ca in late March in the hopes that they would actually complete the incorporation package I had paid for: (http://www.corporateregistries.ca/Alberta_incorporation_services.html.)


Yes I did request the set up of a professional corporation.  In my haste and complacency with online shopping and banking I opted to make use of an online business service as well.  Working from home and trying to get my consulting practice up and running quickly I believed this would be both cost & time effective.  Finding corporateregistries.ca in an online search I read through their site and found their About Us page indicated that they had the experience you need to make the process as smooth as possible. And, our commitment to your business doesn't end when you complete your order.  My experience with them was anything but!  Shouldnt these industry leaders in incorporation and business formation services have been the ones to review, advise, and notify the client of all of the documentation required regardless of the type of incorporation being requested? And shouldnt they have been the ones to work with the client to complete it prior to submission to the government authorized registry agent?  Isnt this why you chose to hire & pay a "professional service" rather than going down to the government registry agent and doing it all yourself?  I ended up doing both as it turned out!

Yes, Mr Neil James was mad that is an understatement.  When someone pays for something, be it a product or service, and they dont receive it, guess what?  They get a little upset because thats a little thing called FRAUD.  A forthright and reputable business responds to customer disputes & complaints in a professional & timely fashion working WITH the customer to make the situation right.  Disreputable and unprofessional endeavors simply pocket the money, ignore the client, have a customer service phone line that DOES NOT WORK, and then lash out when the ill treated customer publicly provides others with an account of their experience.  Reputable and professional companies most certainly DO NOT post the private corporate documents they were hired to prepare on a public website in contradiction to their own stated privacy policy and violation of local and national privacy laws.  But given that they did, please do take a look at them and see exactly what you may or may not get for $99.99+GST from this service.  A similar form package can be picked up at your local government authorized registry agency off the shelf for about half the price.

If youre reading this as part of your due diligence before considering the use of this company then you are doing what I should have done!  Take a little bit of time to research the online company you are considering using.  If it smells fishy and youre getting a feeling there is something not quite right about it, then youre probably right.  Google their address, check it out on street view.  Google the company and any names they provide, check out their status with the BBB.  If they dont have one, move on.  Check out their online payment process.  Is it certified by the major card companies?  Read through their site thoroughly.  If it contains numerous grammatical and spelling errors as if it was perhaps generated by a translation program or done by someone who doesn't have a solid grasp on the language the site is targeted towards this should be a HUGE warning sign.  Finally, do the one simple thing.  Call them.  If they have a phone # listed, call it!  If the # is disconnected or is an automated answering service with a computerized voice, then ask yourself if this is really a company you want to send your money to and implicitly trust?

As Ive finally received at least part of what I had ordered from corporateregistries.ca, albeit from them posting it via a link on this very public website rather than simply sending it to me by email over a month ago like they could have, Ill be updating my complaint with RCMP to let them know as much.  A complaint with the Alberta and Canada Privacy Commissioners offices will be filed now though as there is absolutely no excuse for placing private corporate documents in an unsecured online public forum.  That poorly worded rebuttal & privacy infringement above should be enough to make the average person cringe and probably did more to damage the image of this company than a single complaint from an unsatisfied customer ever could.


All businesses will get complaints, but how those businesses handle those complaints separates good business from bad business. Ripoffreport.com   How true!

Untruly Report about CorporateRegistries.ca


Neil W. James Professional Corporation
Neil James
122 Discovery Ridge GDNS S.W. Calgary, AB T3H 5L7

On April 1th, 2010 Mr Neil James, placed an order with our company for the Incorporation of a professional Corporation:  Neil W. James Professional Corporation. 

Our company provides incorporation services in Alberta within 24 hours and provides free of charge all the documents your new corporation will need to keep your new corporation up-to-date and in compliance with the Alberta Business Corporation Act.

Because Mr Neil James, placed an order for an Alberta Professional Corporation, we are not able to incorporate professional corporations in 24 Hours, plus the customer needs to provide the certification from the corresponding board, authorizing the
registration of the Corporation.

Becuase of this situation, Mr Neil James was mad, and started complaining about our company and about our services and he wrote an untruly report on this website.

We successfully provided the service, not in the time we initially promise, because this type of corporations usually take longer to register no in 24 hours, because we need to wait until we receive from the customer the authorization from the respective Board.

We are a company with over 15 years of experience incorporating companies and we have a list of satisfied customers.

Because Mr Neil James have made this unfair and untruly complain, we are providing on this report a link to our website where readers can view both the certificate of incorporation of this customer and the FREE Company Minute Book that we
provide to this customer, as a pat of our service: http://bit.ly/as6EFx
