    Additional business information

    Additional Info:

    The company has provided BBB with the following statement:

    VitalChek has advised BBB that response delays from some states Vital Records office are causing delays for VitalChek’s response time to consumers.

    "VitalChek is an authorized ordering service for more than 500 government agencies nationwide that are responsible for issuing birth certificates and other vital records. VitalChek has been providing these services for 30+ years and processes more than 2 million vital record orders annually.

    The ordering process includes collecting and validating specific information required by the individual issuing agency and then securely submitting that information to the agency for processing and shipping. For security purposes, VitalChek does not handle the certificates nor does it have control over the actual issuing and/or shipping process. These actions are all handled by the government agency responsible for issuing vital records.

    VitalChek has multiple ways to assist with questions including: online chat during the order process; online via our FAQs at https://vitalchek-solutions.custhelp.com/app/ask where the customer can ask a question via email; post-order customer support with agency-specific toll-free phone numbers listed on the order confirmation email; and via social media response at https://www.facebook.com/VitalChek/, https://twitter.com/VitalChek. Prior to contacting the BBB, please reach out to VitalChek with your questions or concerns via these methods."

      I ordered in December, they stated 120 business days to process, I got the birth certificate in July as requested. I didn't know it was going to take that long until after I ordered but once I seen that I just decided I was going to have to be patient.
