Feeling frustrated with NINOApply. Tried to cancel and get a refund after less than 14 days, because the necessary NIC paperwork came directly through student finance so it wasn't necessary to book a... See more
Quick and easy It was very simple to to use the website and I received the card in the next morning (with the standard post service).

Scam. They just tell you to call the proper Government Office. Europeans can't apply at the moment for National Insurance during Covid. They suggest open for business but they can't get one either. No... See more

No value add - avoid
While I understand that the UK government blocked applications of national insurance numbers from March - January, the way Nino communicated through this was dismal. They literally said nothing up until mid-January 2021 (9 months later), when they sent one email with instructions on how to apply yourself for a NI number. They signed off saying their service was thus completed. Effectively, all they did was send two emails and tell you how to apply for a NI number yourself. Zero value add.
Expensive scam, no service rendered
It's a very cunning website offering seemingly professional service which in the end does nothing. I was charged for the NINO application and then it turned out they never actually filed any! Unfortunately, I was unable to call the 0800 number so I needed a regular number, not provided on the government website and I found them... Stay away and deal directly with the government free service.
SCAM!!!!!
SCAM!!!!!
I would not even give this place 1 star because of how ridiculous they are!
Applied for NI number back in June and still have not got anything from them.
Have called government myself they said nothing under my name even comes up.
Please please please do not use this service they are a scam!!!
DO NOT DO IT, INFORM YOURSELF FIRST
It is a complete waste of money, you can do it for free and you will have the same results. They don't care or do anything to make your NINO come faster or anything else. I did it when I arrived in the UK in august 2020 and they said that due to COVID they were not able to do anything. Last week I got a mail that I just have to call the National Line to get my NINO and they even have the audacity to mail me saying "Please be advised You must take immediate action, this is the final stage of your Nation Insurance Application with us and our service to yourself is now complete." when they have not done absolutely anything for me except taking my money.

PLEASE DO NOT PAY FOR THEM
PLEASE DO NOT PAY FOR THEM
They just steal your money, and do not actually do anything. I paid them like £60 for nothing, I waited 5 months and then I had to sort it out for myself because they still did not know any news about the applications. After all this they do not even give a refund.
Scam, fraud. Do not do it!

Worst service
Worst service. After 3 months they only send me a number to call which was available on gov.uk website. I called the number and came to know i was beginning my NIN application myself and ninoapply have done nothing besides sending me the number which i already knew. Very pathetic service for the fee they charge.
SCAM
Nusty scam because it hits people who needs assistance in order to be fully eligible to work in the UK
