I am sharing my experience to warn other business owners about the renewal notices sent by this company.
I received a physical letter that, in my opinion, was designed to mimic an official government notice from ASIC. It was formatted as a "Notice of Renewal," which led me to believe I was paying a mandatory government fee. I later discovered this is a third-party service charging a significant markup over the official government price.
The Interaction:
Immediately after paying, I realized the mistake and contacted the company to request a cancellation. I was informed that a refund would not be issued due to their Terms and Conditions, despite no service having been performed yet.
The correspondence from their support team became quite aggressive. I was told that if I attempted to dispute the payment with my bank by lying (of course, I wouldn't lie), they would initiate a "police investigation" and they characterized my request as "criminal activity." I found these intimidation tactics to be highly unprofessional and distressing.
The Outcome:
I proceeded to dispute the transaction with my bank for "Service Misrepresented." After reviewing the case and my communication with the company, the bank successfully reversed the transaction.

SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! Offers a paid service for something that is free!

SCAM - sends letter by post to stooge me to pay for ASIC renewal, instead I can pay ASIC directly or via my tax accountant.

SCAM. Sends letter in mail. Do not engage with this service.

10000% SCAM, and so is the letter they send you in the mail

Do not pay anything to this company. They again are another company who are scammers that take advantage of small business owners by stating they provide third party business name renewals. Do not use.

Total Scam. Letter sent to my daughter looking like it is an official business registration service, but it isnt. Do not pay these people anything.

We received a letter that we thought an official letter from government. But it is a scam. Business renewals should be done only via ASIC website.

Below is info from ASIC website:

Scammers impersonating ASIC
Scammers pretending to be from ASIC may contact our customers asking them to pay fees and give personal information to renew their business or company name.

These emails often have a link that provides an invoice with fake payment details or infects your computer with malware if you click the link. Do not click the link.

Scammers may contact you via email, text message, phone or website, all with the aim to deceive you.

Deceptive business trying to rick people to renew their business names.
They obviously harvest details from Services NSW, as I have never used the business name in anything, except the initial registration.

AVOID these SCAMMERS

I received a letter from this company offering to re-register my business name. Technically, the letter does disclose that it’s not actually from the official regulator (ASIC), however the style of the letter makes it look like an official request to pay, which it isn’t. Someone could easily be misled by this.

If I re-register through this business it costs a premium price and offers no advantage over re-registering through the official ASIC website.

Letter came in Mail. No contact from ASIC. Do not pay

This company is engaging in fraudulent activity. We have no legitimate connection to them. Nevertheless, they are attempting to deceive Australian business owners by sending them fake renewal notices for their business names. It is important to always renew your business name through ASICS, as it is a much more affordable option compared to this scam, which will result in the transfer of your business name at a higher renewal rate. This is an unethical business practice, as they are sending renewal notices to individuals who have no valid business relationship with their company. The situation is completely fake and a scam, and it is imperative that the Australian government takes action to prevent this deceptive practice.
