I was promised a 14 day turn around. I repeatedly tried to get a status update via phone (left voicemail on all three extensions 100, 101, 102) an no response. Emailed TWICE with no call back. In the end I had to put in a dispute via BOA and guess what BAM of course I got a call back where that wierdo Jamee Burke yelled at me making a stupid excuse that the DMV was slow. Wrong! I caught her in the first lie as I two weeks ago I noticed my custom vanity plate was still available - this means the paperwork was never submitted and actually you can do everything online now. She acted very unprofessionally with her Trump-like tantrum and said I should pick up my paperwork. So caught in her second lie - why is my paperwork lying around and not submitted? Attached are my case file call logs and email comms. Like the other reviews here they are the worst DO NOT USE! And to the silly GenZ receptionist yes I know what "congratulations" means. Try to be professional.

I told Lucy my story and she gave me candy (I was turned away at the Commercial DMV and was pretty pissed) we went through everything, she repeated it to make sure she understood and we were off registering vehicles and surrendering tags like crazy people. I walked out of there with everything I needed complete, absolutely complete! AND! I still made it to another appointment I had at 2:30pm, Yep, you heard that right. If I don't ever have to step foot inside another State run DMV I will be eternally grateful. Thank you AAA and most of all, Thank you Lucy! I see you've been mentioned here before and rightly so.

I just moved from California and I made an online appt for the Double Diamond Pkwy location. I chose the DL/vehicle multi appointment. Scheduling the appointment online was easy and I for multiple reminders via text and email for my appt. On the day of my appt (which I made for 8:00 am) I showed up 10 minutes early and lines were already forming. They were split into an appointment and non appointment line. Representatives came out 5 minutes before opening to make sure people were in the right lines, had correct forms and to ask everyone with appts to check in via the text that came through. The text message gave you the option to press 2 stating that you had arrived for your appt. They told us once we checked in to take a seat in the lobby. The facility was very clean and quite spacious. I only had to wait about 5 minutes before my name was called over an intercom and told me what window to proceed to. My worker was very nice, patient and helpful. I was able to get my NV license ($41) and register my car and get NV plates. Check the DMV website before your appt as they have many helpful links to inform you of what documents are needed for each service. Things to note: VIN inspections need to be completed before your appt. These can be done without an appt. Just make sure you have your registration.
