    I am writing to file a complaint against Off the Record App regarding their services for handling an ******** traffic ticket for me. I believe their practices have been misleading and unnecessarily expensive for foreign customers like myself, and I am seeking a refund.I used their services with the understanding that the traffic violation could result in a criminal record. However, I later learned that as a ******** citizen, there would be no record transfer to ******, and the fine remained unchanged. This raised doubts about the necessity of hiring a lawyer.I was also charged for seeking legal advice, which seemed excessive, especially since Off the Record App has a refund policy for ******** citizens.I kindly request the BBB to investigate this matter and consider my refund request for services that did not provide the promised benefits and potentially involved misleading practices.

    Their money-back guarantee is a scam. They don't keep their promise and will try to get away with some words so that they don't refund you even if they fail the case.After an initial assessment of my stop sign violation ticket ($166), they said they would give me money back if the case could not be dismissed. So, instead of paying the fine and do the driving school (which is only $19 online), I paid them ($160) and took their service. My case could not be dismissed at the end and I had to pay an increased fine ($166 => $181). Now, they are refusing to refund me as promised. They said they won the case even though I had to pay the fine. They said no point would be counted as a winning. However, I could easily get rid of the point by a $19 online driving school instead of paying them $160 (almost the same amount as the fine). So, the end result is I had to pay double ($181 + $160 = $341) . I had to pay the fine and then I also had to pay their fees. No refund. So, don't use their service if you have an option to pay and do driving school. Save your money instead of relying on their false refund promise.
