I find these responses extremely suspicious. This is an old trick in the book with new accounts commenting on just a particular post. I could be wrong, but excuse my ahem.. dubious mind for thinking this.

yeah, this comment thread is full of shills.

Hello -

I am just here to verify that this is all legitimate and I posted it here to learn more from the community and get feedback. Start-up community has always been very helpful with their opinions and also pretty good beta testers.

This model works and is operational. We charge $2 for any customer service call.

If you have any specific questions, I will be happy to address them.

Thank you Anil

Oh boy! I just finished calling the USCIS and they took like 45 minutes to take me through all routing and finally the call was terminated (apparently because of a network issue). $2 to save some frustration? Sure.

@Geniebazaar, when dealing with the United States Citizen and Immigration service, I think alot of people will agree with me that a call to a place like that is worth holding on for. Paying $2 for a call to be made on your behalf to a place like that is simply not worth it IMO.

It depends upon the nature of the call. Without divulging details, one person just wanted to learn that they can start a company while being on H1B. This doesn't require any other knowledge i.e. it is a generic question. However, you still want to confirm from USCIS and gather any online resources they refer to. If dialing person's time is more valuable than $2, then why not have someone else do it.

Another example is find out whether you need to know when can H-4 visa candidates work on spouse's H1B visa. These are pretty generic questions and one has to wait in queue for 45 mins to 1 hour for no reason. I am not sure whether you have tried calling once. It is pretty painful. More painful, when you were waiting for one hour and your call gets cancelled or you run out of network while driving or traveling (or in elevator). You have to just make sure that you have sufficient battery and that you don't move anywhere without a network :)

Seems more than suspicious when every question reads like an FAQ of yes we do this. Specially when some strange examples like calling the USCIS is brought up.

Suspicious of what? That I own this website? Sure, I do. But, this is a legitimate website/business
