It is a long story but basically, if you are looking to trademark you business, do not waste your time and money here. They charge you for things that you can do very easily yourself, for free, but disguise the service as something different. They make it too hard to cancel. They hide billing dates to get you with the "sorry, you have cancel within three days" rhetoric.
Save your self the headache, lack of results, and dishonestly and get yourself a real lawyer. I could not be more disappointed in their service.
This is a bait and charge scam.
I had to cancel my credit card to make the charges stop.
They suck you in with a decent price offer, but then without even asking you start charging your card for subscriptions and upgrades
This is an outright scam. I wish I had read the 1-star reviews before I engaged with this unethical company. Everything people are saying about hidden, unwanted, unauthorized charges is true. They hook you with an initial simple offer to acquire your Trademark for a set fee and then they "force" you into a loop of progressively piled on "required" charges as they guide you into their cattle chute of progressive payments. Once you're in the chute there appears to be no way out except to keep moving forward and to pay to go to the next stage (before the final financial butchering, which is the recurring annual payment). None of this is made clear in the initial offering. Their obfuscation is intentional. Do not use this fraudulent company. Next stop for me is the Better Business Bureau. As much as I dislike government regulations, companies like this need to have heavy-handed government oversight so they can't rip off trusting people who, in this case, are simply trying to secure a trademark following government requirements. That is the original promise of this company; unfortunately the promise is just the hook to herd you into the cattle chute before being financially cut to pieces with no apparent way out. Note to Trademark Engine: we are not cattle.
Charged my card without my permission twice more after I paid for this service. Advertised prices are deceptive and additional costs are added on AFTER they get your card number. Also noticing now that most of the 5 stars review are fake and all before 2020. Read recent reviews for a true description of this business.
Well behave of business register which is nice of meeting you ti solve my problem thank https://trademarkfunnel.com/trademark-registration
For $69.00 I thought, "Why not see if a name is available for my ideas?" Then 3 days later, they charge my credit card an additional $275.00! I never approved of this charge and was not aware of it. Wish me luck as I try to get it back, Buyer seriously beware!
Though Google doesn't care, this company "manages" their reviews and creates numerous fake ones. This business is a scam (go ahead and find the owner or who runs it - good luck!) and they charge a fake upfront fee and then bill you illegally and relentlessly. Their customer service is also phony, they don't respond, answer emails or calls and don't give refunds for the FAKE charges. Avoid this business at all cost.
Avoid! Trademark Engine scams you into a $175 "Quarterly Trademark Monitoring" service, that is added by default to every package. The first 30 days are free of charge, and then auto-renews as a quarterly subscription. The only way to cancel is to contact their service team.
I was billed $199 for a service I specifically opted out of. Additionally, there's no option for me to delete my payment details or unsubscribe from the undisclosed services they automatically enroll you in when using their service. I strongly advise avoiding them. Their customer service is extremely poor as they simply repeat the same information instead of providing assistance, despite being fully aware of their deceptive practices. I'm not the only one who has raised concerns about this fraudulent charge.
They automatically charged you for the add ons, even if you select no. It is also completely impossible to contact anyone in the company for a refund. They don't answer the phone or emails. Going on four days without hearing from them after contacting multiple times each day.
Do not use this company.
Answer: For my first Trademark, I was recommended to use Trademark Engine. That was a big mistake. The site doesn't do any extra work. YOU essentially are entering the EXACT fields that are required on the actual USPTO website and then they simply copy and paste all the fields on the USPTO website for you. I am NOT kidding - you can literally go and check both sites. You are paying $99 to Trademark Engine for just doing this. Oh and BTW, their nonsense about 'Researching to see if the TM is taken" is literally a 5 second job on the USPTO website. You just need to enter the Trademark term that you want in the search box (TEAS) and see if it has been taken. They make it sound like it is something massive. Besides this, they actually had the nerve to over-charge me. So they charged their fee and they charged me $275 to file with the USPTO (the USPTO filing fee). It was only later, when the USPTO sent me the email confirmation, did I realize that the actual cost was only $225 - so they happily charged me $50 extra. These people are scam artists and they refuse to talk to me about this or answer emails. I have filed a dispute now with my card (who told me that they will get the refund soon). Stay away from this company and file yourself.
Answer: They keep charging you for a subscription you do not sign up for.
Answer: My first dream business has turned into a nightmare. It feels like someone else is just making money off of whoever enters that hook without actually helping business owners who are looking to create a unique brand. The trademark registration process is misleading, and it seems like they are taking advantage of people. Many people don't understand how the process works and end up paying a lot without any guarantee of approval. I am one of the people who now need to cancel the whole position, and it is bitter business now.
Answer: No, i got scammed here. This whole operation is a scam.
