I approved a charge of $69 but later that night was charged an extra $275 without being asked for approval. Instead i just got a email saying "thank you for your payment of $275!"

Just use a Trademaerk Lawyer
October 12, 2022

Don't use this service. It's just another automated system designed to take money out of your account. After my initial order I had 3 payments of $175 taken out of my bank account for "Quarterly Trademark monitoring" which I had no idea about. I only found out when I got an "Upcoming Payment" alert email 10 months later which I immediately cancelled then discovered two previous $175 amounts had been withdrawn without my knowledge as I never received any email alerts or payment receipts. I was able to get the 3rd payment refunded but they wouldn't refund the other two as it was "past their 60 day refund policy". On the phone I was told I would have received a "Free trial ending" email regarding their "trademark monitoring service" which i also never got, so you'll probably unknowingly end up on this free trial then get robbed when it's over.

Additionally once your application is in, if you don't know anything about trademark law it'll likely get rejected then you'll be told by the actual Trademark office you should hire a trademark lawyer to appeal, and you will need to as it's quite complicated.

So in short you are better off to just go straight to an actual Trademark lawyer who can handle everything for you and I assume could flag any potential issues before you submit your Trademark application. Trademark Engine do not do anything for you after they have taken your money.

TERRIBLE! WANT TO VOMIT!
September 29, 2021

I cannot believe on how sneaky their initial set up is. I went with the special $49 fee, they added so many extras without a total approved and my bank account went crazy and alerted me on a total of 6 transactions totaling at $1,125. ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE to take advantage of the consumer in such way. I've tried reaching out and no call back, always busy and the wait is so long that an automated answering machine picks up with the same message to leave a name, callback number and the reason. Been 3 days and no call back. DON'T USE THIS SERVICE, it's an absolute SHAM!

A Waste of Money
July 7, 2020

The USPTO is a better way to go through the process. This company bilks individuals out of their hard earned money. What a crock of poop.
Trademark Engine provides "information and software only." Trademark Engine "is NOT a lawyer referral service and does NOT provide legal advice or participate in any legal representation" Their customer service representatives are NOT there to assist you, and they may NOT provide any legal advice to you." What a bunch of bunk!

I Inquired Of trademark engine on getting a trademark for a company. I was planning on opening. I wasn't sure what we were gonna call the company. But they called back and said that another entity was gonna register my trademark. So I asked him who it was. They lied and said they could not tell me who it was. And the way he lied to made it obvious that there was no one else using or planning on having a trademark in the name of the company I was planning on opening. Yes because I knew they that I would have to think about it. So they sent me an email today, saying. Basically that if I did not go ahead and give them money that they were gonna turn me over to the government for a new company that did not report to the government and had me. Find $500 a day and put me in jail for UP to 1 year. Because I was. Not buying a trade mark from them. I recently responded to the email saying it sounds like extortion. Extortion is if you don't give us money. We're gonna lie about you and try to get you in trouble. I have pictures of the email. Apparently trademark engine are liars, Extortionist, & deceivers and that they're lying to the government to get me into trouble. Simply because I won't give them money to do a trade mark. I explained to them. We're not sure what we're gonna call the company and that the company had changed names through the years to reflect the changes and improvements and expansion of the different companies. So apparently they have turned me into the government for owning a company I have not even started just to Get me to buy a trademark through them. If I was looking into a trademark the last people on this planet I would speak with is trademark engine because apparently they practice extortion. Apparently they're willing to lie to the government just to extort a retired veteran. And apparently there is no one else trying to trade mark the name of the company we may open and that they're flat straight lying to god and everybody about everything including the government.

You begin the site thinking the trademark will be $68.00, once they have your credit card info, they bill you for several other charges, and will not refund your money. Its a scam.

They have a glitchy system and a dashboard that is NOT intuitive! There customer service personnel do not listen and overtalk their customers. Plus the upcharge you for EVERYTHING! The $149 is a ploy to get you in the door. I would NOT recommend.

They automatically charged me for the addons, that I haven't subscribed for. Contacting them on phone is a horrible experience. I don't know if they are a SCAM or LEGIT. Either way, not good.
