Scam. Avoid.
Hanule Trzy
AVOID BY ALL MEANS !!!!
AVOID !!!!
This site charged me 3 x £95 for 3 ESTA documents that one costs only $21 on the official U.S. government website (esta.cbp.dhs.gov). The price is not clearly shown, and they offer little value beyond what’s already available for free. It’s a misleading and overpriced service—don’t fall for it. Apply only through the official site.
Luckily paid with credit card and cancelled within half an hour no contact or response until bank got involved then refund issued next day.

SCAM – DO NOT USE
if you’re reading this you’ve probably already fallen for the scam. if not, this is not the official ESTA site and they will take £100 off of you and not even bother applying for the ESTA. they also don’t respond to requests for refunds, despite their website claiming they will. run!
Marcella Bona
don’t use this
Unfortunately this website came up first in google so I bought the ESTA here instead of the official US site. This review does not help other idiots like me but maybe makes me feel better a little.. There is no need to pay 125$ rather than 21$. So basically is a scam.

Scammers – ESTA Application – Never Use
Scammers. No response to emails. Charged AU$ 217 fr something which is AU$ 21.
Requested for refund imemdiately but “NO” response whatsoever.
Absolute scammers.
Avoid this link – esta.visasyst
Weird part is, it comes up as the first result when you search on Google.
MARCELA LADINO
SCAM WEBSITE. DO NOT USE! Thieves
This site poses as the real government site, never tells you how much is charging or what are the services DO NOT USE this website. they are thieves changing for a simple form that cost 7 dollars more than 100 dollars.

Warning
Warning: Overpriced ESTA Scam
This service charges $135 for an ESTA application that normally costs just $21. They claim to simplify the process — but the official application is already quick and straightforward.
Here’s what the site promises to justify the inflated fee:
Review of your application by so-called “travel authorization experts” before submission
Correction of missing or incorrect information using a proprietary “advanced technology API”
Verification of additional details by their “experts”
24/7 multilingual email support (offered in languages like Russian, English, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, and more)
Photo and document editing for all common formats and sizes (up to 8MB)
A “simplified” application form
Privacy protection and a secure form
Approved ESTA delivered as a PDF
ESTA retrieval via email if you lose your copy
Support for many global payment methods (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, etc.)
Travel insurance included
Refund if your ESTA is denied
Bottom line: You’re paying over six times the official price for services that provide little to no added value. Avoid this unnecessary middleman and apply directly through the official U.S. government website (esta.cbp.dhs.gov).

Scam
US esta is 21 dollars – they charged well over a 100 hundred and weren’t going to issue for months.
MV
Complete scam
Complete scam. Charges 10x the official GOV price on the promise the application will be processed within 48hours. They take your money and ghost you.

FRAUD alert – not a genuine site for ESTA USA visa
It appeared like a genuine site for ESTA USA visa. It gave a slight doubt in my mind while filling the form online as it did not show any specific charge for ESTA visa and it allowed me NOT to choose any charges for some additional services offered (which I did not want anyway), it took credit card number and it allowed me to submit. It charged £95 / $126 which was not specified anywhere in the form but no action done and I did not get visa. Later I realised that this is a FRAUD site. And then I applied in the genuine site and got ESTA visa
Jonathan
SCAM !
THIS IS A SCAM ! ETA is $7 they charged me 150$ and the worst it that it is fake ! I finally paid $7 on the official website
Michele de Permentier
This is a scam and a rip off
This is a scam and a rip off. A $7 Canadian Visa cost me $150!!!! DO NOT USE.
Petra Kovács
DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE
By mistake, I have taken to their website to apply for ESTA.
It was a big mistake. First of all, there is no price list, but because I knew it is $21 (originally), I didn’t pay attention and went through with the process.
I was shocked, when I realised that they have charged me for £180 (!!!) for 2 ESTAs… £180!?
I have immediately contacted my bank about it, and I also emailed them requesting a refund. They promised me to come back to me in 24 hours.. Nearly 48 hours passed, no email, no refund, and no ESTA…
Funny enough, finally I’ve made it to the official website after, and they have charged me the normal $21/person AND got authorisation within 2 hours! TWO HOURS!!!
Shame on them, but I guess I’ve learnt from my mistake…
PLEASE USE THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE, WHAT IS esta.cbp.dhs.gov
Jon
Not sure if this is even a real site
This site esta.visasyst.com charges $125: I think per/person . The real one charges $21 p/p so I gave up, but maybe they can do all the work of filling in the paper work, if that is the case then might be worth it for some people
Below are the analyze and conclusion of us about above reviews
The first review by d mhacgiollabhride is a straightforward accusation of being a “TOTAL SCAM.” The user claims to have been overcharged significantly ($100 for something costing $20) and reports a lack of response from the company. This is a strong indicator of a potential scam, highlighting both financial loss and poor customer service. The brevity of the review suggests a high level of frustration, but lacks specific details beyond the monetary aspect. Overall, this review carries significant negative weight.
Francisco I.’s review is extremely brief, simply stating “Scam. Avoid.” While short, its directness contributes to a pattern emerging from other reviews. The lack of detail makes it difficult to understand the nature of the scam encountered, but the stark warning reinforces the negative sentiment toward the service. Its value lies in its concise expression of dissatisfaction.
Hanule Trzy provides a more detailed account, describing being charged 3 x £95 for ESTA documents that cost only $21 on the official U.S. government website. They explicitly mention the official website (esta.cbp.dhs.gov) for comparison, highlighting the inflated price. The review alleges misleading pricing practices and limited added value. Crucially, the user was able to get a refund through their credit card company’s intervention. This review offers specifics about the overcharging, the product involved (ESTA), and a direct comparison to the official source, making it a highly credible and informative warning.
Ole Martin Pedersen Gjestad’s review reinforces the “Total scam” accusation, stating they were “fooled by the add bring on top on google.” The review mentions being scammed out of $120, confirming the trend of significant overcharging. The reference to Google search results suggests a deceptive advertising strategy. Although concise, it adds to the mounting evidence against the legitimacy of the service.
Elle’s review warns “SCAM – DO NOT USE,” stating that the site is not the official ESTA site, takes £100, and does not apply for the ESTA. The review claims a failure to respond to refund requests, despite website promises. This reinforces the negative customer service experience reported in other reviews and strengthens the claim of deceptive practices. The urgency in the warning underscores the severity of the alleged scam.
Marcella Bona admits to mistakenly using the website due to its high ranking in Google search results. They acknowledge paying $125 instead of the official price of $21, describing it as “basically a scam.” While accepting personal responsibility for the mistake, the review highlights the deceptive nature of the website and the significant price difference. This review, though self-deprecating, is valuable in emphasizing the ease with which users can be misled.
DS describes the site as “Scammers,” reporting no response to emails and an overcharge of AU$217 for something that costs AU$21. The user specifically mentions requesting an immediate refund with “NO” response. The review directly calls out the website address “esta.visasyst” and notes its high ranking in Google search results, corroborating similar claims from other reviewers. This review is particularly strong due to its specificity and direct warning.
MARCELA LADINO accuses the site of posing as the real government site without clearly stating the charges. They claim the site is charging over $100 for a “simple form” that costs $7. The user labels the website “SCAM” and “thieves.” This review aligns with other reports of deceptive practices and inflated pricing, adding to the overall negative assessment.
Conrad Peyer provides a detailed breakdown of the “Overpriced ESTA Scam,” including the official ESTA cost ($21) and the site’s inflated price ($135). The review lists the services the site claims to offer to justify the higher fee, arguing that these services provide “little to no added value.” The review concludes by advising users to apply directly through the official U.S. government website (esta.cbp.dhs.gov). This review is particularly valuable due to its comprehensive analysis and clear recommendation.
Mr P C states “Scam,” reporting an overcharge (well over $100) compared to the official US ESTA price of $21. The review also mentions a significant delay in issuing the ESTA. This review reinforces the common complaints of overcharging and poor service.
MV describes the site as a “Complete scam,” claiming it charges 10x the official government price with a promise of processing within 48 hours, followed by a complete lack of communication (“ghost you”). This review highlights the alleged false promises and lack of customer service, further damaging the site’s credibility.
Krishnakumar Kanniappan describes the site as a “FRAUD alert,” noting that it appeared genuine but raised doubts during form filling due to a lack of specific charges. They were charged £95 / $126 without clear indication, and received no visa. The user then applied through the genuine site and obtained the ESTA. This review provides a detailed narrative of the scam, emphasizing the initial deceptive appearance and the eventual realization of fraud.
Jonathan simply states “SCAM !” and reports being charged $150 for an ESTA that costs $7 on the official website. They confirm paying the correct amount on the official website. This concise review contributes to the overwhelming negative consensus.
Michele de Permentier describes the site as “a scam and a rip off,” reporting being charged $150 for a Canadian Visa that costs $7. This review further supports the pattern of extreme overcharging.
Petra Kovács shares a personal account of mistakenly using the website, being charged £180 for 2 ESTAs, and receiving no email, refund, or ESTA. They highlight the official website (esta.cbp.dhs.gov) and their successful application through it for the correct price and quick authorization. This review is particularly impactful due to the detailed personal experience and the strong recommendation for the official website.
Jon notes the site esta.visasyst.com charges $125 per person while the real one charges $21 per person. They speculate that the higher price *might* be worth it if the site handles all the paperwork, but their uncertainty suggests skepticism. This is the only review with a *slightly* less negative tone, acknowledging a potential (though unlikely) benefit.
esta.visasyst.com likely scam
Note: The above statement is just my personal opinion, you should check carefully at the sources and make the right decision for yourself.
