Why Founders Are Leaving StartFleet
Real issues reported by StartFleet customers
State Fee Always Extra
StartFleet adds a $100 state fee to every plan. Their Startup plan at $499 actually costs $599 once you include the mandatory state fee, matching StartGlobal but with fewer included services.
Basic EIN Takes 30-50 Days
The Freelancer plan ($349) includes EIN processing that takes 30-50 business days. To get faster processing (11-14 days), you must upgrade to the Startup plan at $499.
Bank Account Is "Tips" Not Setup
"They give you tips for opening a bank account, not actual help with the process."
StartFleet describes their bank account service as tips and guidance rather than hands-on setup assistance. Community reports confirm this is general advice, not a guided application process.
$329/Year Renewal
StartFleet charges $329/year for renewal, which includes registered agent and basic compliance. This recurring cost adds up over time.
