Verified Reviewer |An Unexperienced Tax Filer Viciously Robbed and Decieved
After days of attempting to contact h&r block, below is the email I wrote via this site. It provides them with the incidents that took place and practices in which their names on:
I have had an extremely deceitful experience with my tax return at HR Block.
My tax preparer was a vicious and intentionally unethical individual whom both mishandled my taxes (wrongfully advising me that I didn't need to include my BTC purchases if it was for online gambling and I lost it) and manipulated the trust I had placed into what had seemed to be an innocent lady.(Being evasive to answering my questions about potential costs; putting it off saying "we'll get to that in a second" and "it was just on the screen, but im actually going to get you a coupon/discount applied to that so it will be less, hold on". [She stands up and walks away and returns with what I assumed to be a coupon she appeared to be punching a code of it into her computer] She did in fact give me a number of what Im pretty sure was $260 but had presented it to be too much and said something about the system having two different charges that she was trying to remove the 'duplicated charge' -the term she had used. She said it wasn't letting her take it out and this was when she had got up and came back with a coupon I seen a number come up after she punched the code i I'm almost certain was $80. But she had said "okay I was able to adjust it for you I'm not sure why that's entered twice, but I was able to knock a decent portion off" this is the reason I became curious to how much I was being charged.
To be completely honest I myself have only filed taxes once prior to this; I am still relatively young, yet not a fool can be taken advantage of. I digress, to be completely honest I had feared the refund advance I went in and applied for at Jackson Hewitt was somehow going to be coming out of my refund. I had a similar terrible experience with them and very alike practices were taken. Anyways I assumed this was what she was referring to but after looking into a brief research on this whole tax thing, I had realized it was not this.
But I had kept asking how much it was going to be and this is where she had been invasive and told me whats quoted above.
Long story short I get a notification my Ohio tax return was received and that she was taking all of it and leaving me with none of it $290.
I now realize that this was stolen from me, after reviewing both IRS policy, h&r block policy ( pertaining to negligence of and falsification her checklist _documented on site made evident) as well as legislation on tax fraud. I wanted to bring this to h&r block's attention, after attempting to contact her had failed, in hopes to resolve this entire incident much less simpler than the steps i am advised to take afterward.
My name is Josh with Thomas my phone number is ***-***-**** and I can be reached anytime during the day if you leave a message I will call you back immediately

Verified ReviewerService @***.Robert Location
Hello,
On February 27th I set an appointment with Ana C at the St.Robert MO location to file my taxs. I made a mistake and forgot one of my taxes, so I went to my parents where the tax paper was located and brought it back to the person up front and she said she would give it to Ana and get back to me.
Its been over a week and Ive been trying to get ahold of Ana by email and she wont respond. I have tried calling but I cant seem to get to who I need to at this location a lot of transferring. I am about to go in and ask for my papers and go somewhere else. It feels like after 7 years of using H&R my service is no longer wanted.
The email Im using to contact her is the one I saved from last year because I had her due my taxes last year and the experience was great. This year its not the same.
Preferred solution: Apology

Verified Reviewer |100% accuracy GUARANTEE
My name is Chelsea I filed my taxes with your Lake City FL office and was estimated to receive my refund on February 27.2024. After not getting my refund and spending 3 days non stop on phone to IRS I was informed that not only did the tax preparer enter my wrong year of birth he also had my earned income credit and refund backwards and on wrong lines on form.
I now have to wait to be mailed a CP05 form that can't even be mailed to March 11 then fill it out and return it then once it's received I should get refund 120 days afterwards per IRS. So approx. 5 months AFTER I should get it. Just to ensure you understand my delima.
I am a single mom of 2 girls, no help from the dad financially or anyone else. My 2011 Hyundai accent and only ride blew up in October which cost me my job being I live 18 miles out of town I can't walk nor find a ride. I've been waiting on my tax return to purchase a used car since October. Now being your incompetent tax preparer has messed my taxes up I'll probably loose my home as well.
So please explain to me how hr block is going to fix this ASAP being it was your mistake and y'all guarantee accuracy. Otherwise I will be seeking pro bono legal council immediately to take action on your guarantee. I'm not including my correct phone number as it's turned off from non pymt as well but can use neighbor wifi so request correspondence be done thru this email.
Also I would like to have all communication in writing. Thank you

Verified Reviewer |H&R Block failed 2 years to file my taxes properly
In 2022, my personal taxes were not filed due to an accounting error & didnt show that I paid for my stuff, which I did. I have asked them to send me my taxes and it has been several months now, still had not.
2023, I gave them my taxes & they were supposed to file them, or at least submit an extension, which they did neither of. Then after that, it took several months for me to get a response from them, just to tell me that they never filed them, that they fired my original accountant & that I was subject to nearly 5k in fines. They said they would make good on it...
this was 2 months ago and they came back stating that I never submitted my stuff, which I could verify had been done on their website. What a C.F.
