Not happy very bad experience
I have been there 8 years of using Turbo Tax. Will not use H&R block tax software again. Nothing but issues on a simple return. And unlike Turbo Tax which at the end tells you if and how much you should pay in estimated taxes.. h&r. Tells nothing they have a plan at the end but every difficult to use. When I did go to file software forced a update so I had no way to know if if filed. I had to do a second time and give a second credit card. Pure garbage in my opion. It is cheaper than Turbo Tax but the hours wasted not worth the savings.
Dont waste your money on the insurance
They did my taxes,irs came after me for 456 dollars 3 years later. I paid for the insurance, I gave them all my information. Called them and got the run around numerous times. Here comes my refund and irs got their money. And I get screwed by h&r thanks to the half ass job
Lied to by tech support about import…
Lied to by tech support about import capabilities! Will not import any data from Wealth Front! And will not allow you to manually input the numbers! A waste of money! NEVER AGAIN! I checked with support before buying and was assured that it would import. Or I could save the file as a PDF and drop it into the program! WRONG! I had to use another program, Free Tax USA that worked like a charm! :)
Shady and greedy company
Shady and greedy company, they’ll hold your previous years filings hostage for a payment, and try to upsell you all along the way. Find a better software asap
Protect your time and money
Just awful. H&R Block messed up my taxes and as a result I ended up owing more than $20K to the IRS. A huge mess and a huge hassle. Avoid at all costs.
A bunch of corrupt Scammers
A corrupted H&R Block tax preparer at Milpitas office, located at 140 N Milpitas BLVD, Milpitas, CA95035, used my information, my real name, my phone number, and social security number and she added me as a part-time employee at a company called "Intelligent Fiber optic Systems Cor" located at 4425 Fortran Drive, San Jose, California, 95134, United States. Annual revenue: $5.2 million. Their EIN is 043703938. phone number: 3464685872 . Email address: yangforeng253140(at)hotmail.com . Honest to God, I've never been at this company. I didn't even know it existed before that FORGERY. As a result of using that fraudulent piece of paper, she added over $20,000 to my 2023 income, and I'm assuming that on the other side , she saved the same amount of money or even more as employee's expenses for intelligent fiber optic systems Corporation. I also looked up the ownership of this corporation, and name came up as a young man in his mid twenties who I'm assuming is her relative. The damage that corrupted tax preparer and Intelligent Fiber Optic Systems Corporation caused me is beyond repair, and the worst is that when I called H&R Block headquarters, they deleted the fraudulent return, and they locked my account in order to protect the corrupted tax preparer or maybe in order to save their own reputation. Then H&R block gave me a case number, and they told me they were going to investigate what happened and they told me to expect a phone call within 2 business days. I waited for over a week for H&R block phone call, but they never called. When I called them and gave them the case number I was given a week before, they said there was no case connected to that number.
After 2 weeks, H&R block completely deleted my account.
Honest to God I kept begging H&R not to delete my account, but in the end they went a head and deleted my H&R account and they deleted all my documents that I had for many years there. I guess they figured I'm from the middle class so I don't have hot shot lawyers to help me.
I was in the area a while ago, and the corrupted tax preparer is still working there. She's probably still looking for new victims!!
IF H&R BLOCK DENIED WHAT HAPPENED, I HAVE DOCUMENTS AND I CAN POST SCREENSHOTS OF THEM. Also... IF ANYONE WANTS TO DESPOSE OF ME , I'VE GIVEN COPIES OF THE FRAUDULENT TAX RETURN TO ALL MY FRIENDS, JUST IN CASE!!
Frustrated client
I have been with H and R block for a few years and I requested to have my application for age pension done.
I was very relieved at the time when the accountant said it had been lodged and they would follow up with any enquiries
I later found that the application had not been lodged and wad told I had to follow it up
Absolute rip off
Absolute rip off. I had an appointment for today and I went in for filing my taxes with them as inperson appointment. Filled up their online form and took all the documents. The lady had no clue about anything with respect to tax filing. The reason I went there was because I needed help with investments and helping me with bringing my taxable income down. She didn't even know that for last year the super additions have to be done by Jun 2024. She was suggesting to put money into super and it can be filed for my 2024. She then had to ask colleague and she did she the same. She didn't talk about having work from home scenarios. End of it, I said I ll apply on my own and guess what. They charged me 80$ for what they call as consultation and they didn't do anything. Total waste of time and they had no regard for customers. They didn't care as long as they had my money. Not going to go there again for sure.
Needlessly frustrating and stressful
I had used my local HR Block for years with only positive experiences, and used the expat service last year with no trouble. This year, however, has been a nightmare. I submitted my 2023 tax materials at the beginning of March, hoping to have my taxes done by the end of that month. A couple of weeks went by and I didn’t hear anything back from my “tax pro”. I kept messaging - nothing. Beginning of April - still nothing. April 12 and 13, two days away from the deadline, tracked down a phone number, called and called until I talked to a person, who must have nudged my tax pro. He finally gets back to me saying he’ll file an extension for me. I didn’t want an extension!! I was ready to get those taxes done early and now I need an extension?? But I was also in the middle of selling my parents’ house in Canada after they both died in 2023, and getting ready to move to a foreign country - why I needed the expat service in the first place - and didn’t have the time or energy to look around for another accountant. So, fine, I’ll take the extension…then I’m in suspense for the next…SIX MONTHS. Finally, the tax pro is ready to file, 10 days before the extension deadline of October 15. And there’s a huge error on the Fincen part of the return - instead of paying attention to the information I provided, or - crazy idea - contacting me at any point in the last SIX MONTHS, the tax pro just sloppily and inaccurately cut and paste some details. Correcting that error takes another few days as the extension deadline is looming.
The big selling points of HR Block are ease and convenience in what is otherwise a stupidly stressful experience, and lower cost. And after the past 7 months of anxiety and hassle, poor communication, errors that undermine my confidence in the accuracy of my return - HR Block completely failed to deliver. Instead of convenience I had nothing but stress, and whatever money I saved using them was not worth it. I’ll spend the next few months looking for a new tax accountant who can actually do a professional job.
$690 for two years of tax return HnR…
$690 for two years of tax return HnR block Bundaberg is a rip off
Disappointing service, decent software
The software is fine, but the customer service is disappointing. My phone call appointments are repeatedly rescheduled by H&R Block without consultation regarding my availability. At the time of the newly scheduled appointment, nobody calls me, particularly frustrating when I have a time-sensitive tax issue and H&R Block makes amending previous tax returns impossible through their platform. I will continue to use TurboTax moving forward.
If I could give less stars I would
If I could give less stars I would. The filing of my taxes went ok but cost over 350 for less than 5 min of mouse clicking. But it's their Spruce card that they recommend that your return go on so u can get it sooner. It has been the worst experience I've ever had. 1st I get my 1st spruce card & wait till my return in in the account. I try to use the account & from the very 1st use my account gets flagged. Which means I have to wait 3 to 5 business days to receive a new card. They said it was from suspicious activity. I asked what activity besides my initial try & fail there were no other transactions. They couldn't explain why it was flagged. Then I received my new card & set it up, with the promise of it working. Wrong again I go to use it & it gets declined again. Mind you there is over $5800 in the account. Again they tell me that they can't figure out why it's being declined. They tell me I have to wait another 3 to 5 business days for them to call me back. Meanwhile I have bills that need paid & things I counted on that money to pay for such as my child's birthday. Needless to say if anyone else reads this DO NOT USE THE SPRUCE BANKING CARD.
TERRIBLE SERVICE
TERRIBLE SERVICE - Booked a phone appointment- they did not ring. Rescheduled and they did not ring- I called and they weren’t expecting my call.
Lady did my tax anyway, I signed and was told 2 weeks for the refund to come through. One month later and no word. Called the call centre to follow up - they couldn’t even see if the return had been lodged and I was told to wait two days for a call back. After waiting two days with no response, I called again and was told to wait another two days for a call back as another escalation had been lodged. I asked for a refund for the work and to speak to a manager- neither of which the call centre were able to arrange, stating I would have to discuss this with the Merrylands branch when they find the time to call me back. I have been with H&R block for many years but would not recommend them anymore.
Horrible interaction and incomplete information
After moving to the UK, I discovered that my taxes were more complicated than I originally assumed. I already knew it would be difficult. After trying to do it myself, I looked into this H&R Block Expat Tax service. I signed up but the Tax Advisor I was assigned was the worst possible interaction. He asked me questions using abbreviated and inaccurate language. I had to ask so many times for clarification but never received a proper response. After submitting my information and several messages back and forth using the H&R Block messaging system, I decided this was not worth the hassle. I then indicated to the Tax Advisor that I was considering moving on since my questions were not answered. I did not receive a proper response, instead I received a message that my tax return was ready and I needed to pay the invoice. This was despite the fact that the Tax Advisor was still asking for other documents. So for me, there is no way my Tax Return could be complete if information was still needed. The communication during this time was horrible, was delayed. It took several days to receive a response for each message I sent. There is no way to escalate the issues to someone else or contact H&R Block directly. This was a horrible customer experience. I should have read the reviews on Trustpilot first before signing up and giving up my private personal information.
Unprofissional
Unprofissional, lack the experiance beiond simple filing of W-2 and doing what the computer tells them. No accountent or people that know how to file proper ammanded return.
Tried to use the expat service
Tried to use the expat service. They asked for all my information and documents, and then several days went by without hearing from them. I called and wrote but no one answered my messages. Eventually, I logged in to their portal and got a message stating my specialist was too busy and that someone else would handle my taxes. By then, so much time had passed that I had to file for an extension for the first time in my life. I cancelled the service given the lack of response and the fact that no one even had the courtesy to talk to me. All I got from them was copy/pasted messages. It was like dealing with a poorly-staffed call center that happens to handle sensitive information. Utterly unprofessional.
Helpful but EXPENSIVE
Unlike last year, I unfortunately needed a tax pro this year. My tax pro was very quick to do my taxes so it made the process less stressful. However, the price was outrageous. I paid almost $300 for filing. If the price was more economical, I would give them a higher rating.
If I could give less stars I would
If I could give less stars I would. I had everything broken down, so all they had to do was enter it line by line on the form. It's taken them 2 weeks. Then they send me an email that it's time to review my return. SO, I go in to review it, and I can't see it until they want me to way $500 first. So, they are holding my tax return hostage until I pay their overpriced ridiculous charges. They refuse to allow a coupon code, and they don't return emails or messages. I will never go back to them again. I always had great dealings with H&R when I lived in California, but I don't know what has happened to them in KY.
I've never had someone this bad do my taxes
This was one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a company. I don't use the word "bumbling" a lot but it's the best way to describe the person preparing my taxes. He could barely read, typed with his index fingers, and routinely forgot things that I had told him minutes ago, including my employment status, state of residence, and the specific things I needed done with my taxes. I can not trust a company that will hire people I can't trust with something as important as taxes. I still think Tubro Tax is a scam but I can trust an over paid robot over someone who takes an hour and a half and to get my name and address right.
The Big Lie
Their ad: "Upfront transparent pricing means you won't be surprised by the price of tax prep at the end." Hoo, Hah! Guess again! This was my first experience with them and I won't be going back. I checked out their listed prices on their website. I have less than $25,000 total income, including social security and some market garden income (think selling fresh berries in season) on a self-totalling spreadsheet. That means besides the plain tax form there's 1 extra page required with very few entries. I pay no taxes during the year, I owe no taxes, and I get no refund. The only reason I still file is fear of the IRS.
The price listed on the website to do this was $160. After the forms were finished, their billing system rang up this job at $435. Then I had to argue about the advertised price which was what got me in their door. Bottom line--the preparer was a nice person and did a good job, but there ain't no "upfront transparent pricing"; you're going to get a real big, real expensive surprise at the end. And I'm not going to count on being able to argue them back to their advertised price.
