    Worst customer service. Avoid if you can and go to Norwich. They were so much quicker and friendlier.

    Worst registry to go ! I have never seen such unprofessionalism take place all in one place in my…read morelife . There is no customer service to be found so rude even to my 17 year old son. Go to the Southbridge location or Leominster but not Worcester are they seriously paid to be unkind to everyone that walks in the front door! Changes need to take place. Please and thank you! I would give 0 stars

    Needed to get a new registration and plates, which must be done in person. This was my first visit…read moreto this new location, which is in an old strip mall. They took over some defunct retail space, which is a good idea, as it offered a lot of space and plenty of parking. They opened a few minutes early, and I found myself in a line of about 20 people, the gentlemen in front of me lamented that their website advertises Senior hours on Wednesday at 9am to 10am, but this didn't seem to be enforced. I'd say about 75% of the people looked like seniors. The line moved quickly, within 5 minutes I was given a number and told to have a seat. There is an abundance of seating, the space looked neat and clean. They have large flat panel screens and a clear announcement of each queue number that is called. About 30 minutes later my number was called. The woman who assisted me was polite, professional and knowledgeable. Five minutes later, I walked out with a new registration and plates. Overall, a pretty good experience!

I was always under coverage and on automatic pay. These automobile laws are getting out of hand. Pay to renew registration yearly, money grab, pay for another money grab insurance revocation. I'm leaving this money-grab state with a low minimum wage and can't even survive by owning a car, which is a necessity for transportation. Do not register your vehicle in Rhode Island.

I was gifted a preferred plate and needed to make a trip to transfer them to my vehicle. I may have been able to do this via the mail, but since I had a narrow timeframe, I opted to go in person. Reservations for the main location in Cranston generally book 2-3 weeks out. I made 2 appointments for the same day, one for the morning and the other for the afternoon in case I needed to gather additional information and didn't want to wait another 2-3 week for an appointment. One good thing about COVID is that it forced a restructuring of the DMV, which ended up being better for customers and employees, so many of the updates are still in place today. Step 1: make your reservation online for the day, time, and location you want to visit Step 2: arrive during your scheduled time Step 3: security will ask to see your confirmation before allowing you access to the building Step 4: wait in the check in line and hope that you have all of the forms and documents you need to get whatever you came for done Step 5: get called to the check in window (there are 4 of them) Show the employee behind the plexiglass your confirmation number, hand over your paperwork and forms for them to review and validate. If you have everything that you need, you receive a deli style ticket with a number on it and get to proceed to the upstairs waiting area. If you don't have all the paperwork and forms you need, you'll need to straighten that out before you go any further Step 6: wait in the second floor waiting area. The seats are so worn out that the faux leather is completely work off, leaving a spongy foam cushion to sit on. Even with an appointment, I waited 40 min for my number to be called Step 7: when your number is called, proceed to the numbered booth/window the automated system told you to enter and hand your paperwork over to the employee sitting behind that plexiglass. This person may or many not be friendly, but as long as they can take care of what you went to the DMV for, that doesn't matter. Pay your fee, collect your receipt, and leave.
