Amazing Sales Representative who deserves all the praise!

This review is ONLY about the amazing Sales Representative I had the pleasure of working with. I have yet to have a full experience with NWRA, so please be mindful of the rating.

What an example of excellent customer service! I spent over 80 minutes on the line with Amanda, who turned my unbidden business therapy telephone session into a fully committed and successful sales call. She was exceptional in every way. If I have problems again, I know exactly who to ask for. Amanda was good-hearted, patient—patient, patient—kind as ever, very insightful, experienced, and well-informed. She could move between the roles of sales associate, therapist, and entrepreneurial comrade with ease and class. Amanda Brooke is the one to turn to! I’m so happy I got to launch my first business venture with her guidance.

Cheers, Amanda! I hope you get a raise, a bonus, and a free trip for your excellent work!

Bad reviews will get deleted immediately …

I tried to write a review on northwest but it gets deleted all the time. Not sure who writes the good reviews about them but if you express your bad experience you get rejected. My advice don’t even waste your time and money.

Do not use these people

DBA nightmare
A very dishonest agent (Matt) for this sham of a company sold me registration of a DBA in mid August telling me that it would take 5 days.
I explained this was a very urgent requirement and he explained that it would be registered ar worst in 5 days and possibly sooner.
Then when I called after 5 days I was told that the normal time for a DBA to be registered was 10 business days, I write this on the 10th of October and we still do not have our DBA or have any idea when we will get it.
At the time that I was told that I had been lied to to their credit they refunded their fee so I was kind of happy about that.
So happy that I went on and paid for their mail address service for $29 a month
I discovered yesterday that I was also being charged for a call answering service that I did not ask for
I cancelled both the services
Their customer service which was excellent when they were trying to get money from me has now disappeared
Terrible company and service

Well, this is definitely not the experience we want for our clients! Our $29 mail address service includes call answering service, but we also offer a variety of options for other business services, too.
If we messed up, we’ll always make it right. Unfortunately we weren’t able to locate an account for you based on the information in the review. So, please call us at 509-768-2249. We’ll get you set up with everything you need, and nothing you don’t.

Great experience

I used Northwest for two years and was very satisfied. There was never any issues and their services were executed perfectly for me. On the occasions where I reached out to support with questions, I got prompt and helpful responses. I am very impressed with privacy policy. I only wish every company operated with way.

Had a great experience working with Amanda Brooke and the entire team at Northwestagent

I had a really great experience working with Northwestregistered agent. Thank you so much to Amanda Brooke and the entire team that worked on my paper work. I had 4 paper work to complete before I reached out to NorthwestAgent and the tricky part was all 4 were interlinked and at a high level there are so many ways it can be done. Amanda was very patient, kind, went through the process in detail with good energy, helped me bridge the gap of my understanding with the actual process and she navigated me patiently to help me choose the best possible approach for my interlinked paperwork. She came up with some creative, out of the box suggestions, which required in depth understanding of my business formation and helped me with my business formation paperwork promptly. She navigated me with sufficient next steps so I was not blocked in the middle. I found the phone call with her helpful to submit the portal applicaiton online. Throughout the process I am impressed with Amanda's patience, kindness and the level of knowledge and energy she had in getting this work completed. Overall very supportive, knowledgeful and helpful from the start to finish and I really appreciate that!

On the EIN side, Cindi Rowe was very helpful. The online system could not issue me the EIN readily, so Cindy worked with me to help me understand the IRS process in detail, which was really kind of her, so my business formation won't be blocked and she made sure to follow up so I can get everything accomplished in a timeline manner.

Also, when I called the northwestregisteredagent general line, I found all the agents I talked to be useful with an intention to actually help me get my paperwork done, which I want to thank the entire company for facilitating such a culture. I look forward to continue working with them!

Very good customer service

Very good customer service, step by step guide to starting a business. Whole process is transparent and quick. Reasonable pricing. Only downside is that website can be slow at times.

They corrected the error, after I had to go through multiple people without success. I’m still concerned that I was told three different things by three different people, but happy they ended up fixing it

LLC and EIN was smooth

I have established my LLC and obtained my EIN. It was smooth for me. They sent me the EIN in only three weeks. So I will rate this company 5 star.

Has not been a positive experience

Has not been a positive experience. They are slow to get back to you, and I'm not even sure I'm speaking with a real human, feels like a conversation I would be having with a computer bot. While they are very nice, however very ineffective. What I have learned is that anyone can be a registered agent. Find a friend and file yourself.

Hey Margo,
You’re totally right that anyone can be listed as a Registered Agent, as long as they have a physical address in the state you're filing in, and are comfortable having that address listed publicly. We offer an extra layer of privacy as well as the secure handling of all the important state and legal notices. If you don't need someone else to handle that, more power to you!
We would love to chat with you, but couldn’t find an account under your name. We only hire real humans here, no robots, so feel free to give us a call if you have questions about our service! Not to brag, but our team is pretty awesome, and we’d be happy to help!

Transferred the registered agent…

Transferred the registered agent services for 20+ entities in multiple jurisdictions over to Northwest. Angel Williams was phenomenal. She input all of my entity data and got my entire account setup. Throughout the entire process she was extremely kind, helpful and courteous!

A very refreshing company to do…

A very refreshing company to do business with. Living in the UK, I just see depression, disappointment, and hopelessness every day.

It’s really nice to do business with a company with that all-round American passion, drive, talent & determination. Something the UK is seriously lacking.

It’s a really exciting time at moving my business to the US & NWRA made the first step a reality.

Here’s to all good things 💪

Lousy service

Lousy service. In my opinion, they don’t deserve to stay in this business! I started wanting to create an LLC with this company, which promises a complete package, from website provision to LLC formation. I quickly realized the service was very poor, so I didn’t continue with their services. Unfortunately, before leaving, I made the mistake of buying my domain name through Northwestregisteredagent. Updating the DNS is tedious because you practically have to open a support ticket for every update, as their DNS management program works very poorly. Since then, I’ve waited 60 days to urgently transfer my domain, but even for that, the support hasn’t responded to me for three days and is preventing me from receiving my Auth/EPP codes, which are essential for transferring my domain to a serious and professional company. Absolutely to be avoided.

Hey, we’re sorry to hear you didn’t have a great experience. Normally, we pride ourselves on excellent customer service, and we’re always looking for ways to improve our website services. ICANN does require a mandatory 60 day waiting period for a domain transfer, which can be frustrating. Ultimately, we’re glad we could resolve this for you. If you ever need help with anything else, we’re committed to taking care of our clients.

Looks like a scam company

Looks like a scam company. Tried to order through them LLC registration. Before the sign up, it says this and that services are included, but... As soon as you start the sign up process, they are trying to charge you $39, $25, $99 extra for the "included" services. Even so you agreed to all of that, you will get unpleasant experience with bugs in their system and error messages popping up here and there all the way.
I would recommend to find another agent to help you with the LLC registration.

Hi Vladimir,
We believe really strongly that you should only pay for services you actually want, but we do have optional add-ons available for business identity services, expedited/ additional filings, etc. Most of our customers appreciate being able to select only what they need. Our price for LLC formation is just $39, plus the state fee.
If you need help navigating our online portal, please give us a call at (509)768-2249 and we are happy to help!
