stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have been trying to get a hold of my tax "Pro" for weeks now. I filed in January and spent almost 400 bucks, I haven't received my state taxes bac.

I've left messages multiple times on MyBlock, I had one response but they just said they would look into it. I've called customer service toll free three times today. The first time, they didn't call back and the last two times it hung up when I pressed "2" to leave a message for my tax pro. I signed up for a 15 minute appointment 2.5 months ago and I was there for nearly 2 hours.

I had to "help" the professional because she didn't see obvious things on the software.

I don't think I should have to pay 400 bucks for this. And I STILL haven't heard where my funds are.

Awful online support and intentional price gouging.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

My name is Matt P. and i have spent hours now today trying to navigate your god awful customer support that functionally doesn't exist.

i require just one phone call with an actual human being so i can get a single piece of info from my 2022 tax filing and your system is intentionally designed to leech money where it has no right to. i need literally 1 piece of info from my account from 2022 so i can move on with my life and your system is atrociously archaic and misguided.

Please, i just need to speak with 1 actual person who can help regarding my online myblock account and my 2022 pin.

View full review
Cons:
  • Confusing and misleading interface
  • Unreliable online responses
  • Was once a reliable free option but is no longer

Preferred solution: i want my Pin from my 2022 return.

User's recommendation: Absolutely not. I will actively do the paperwork myself for others to prevent this issue.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

THEY CHARGED HIM $400 FOR THE SIMPLEST RETURN. HE ONLY RECEIVED $600 OF HIS $1000 REFUND.

HE ONLY EARNED 10,000 FOR THE 2023 TAX YEAR. HE QUALIFIED FOR 'FREE' PREPARATION ANYWHERE! I CALLED AND ASKED WHY THEY DIDN''T TELL HIM AND THEY REPLIED '" WE DON'T HAVE TO TELL THEM!" HOW UNETHICAL, UNFAIR, EVIL ETC... IF YOU CAN ASSIST IN ANY WAY, PLEASE DO.

THIS IS ONE OF THE 'POOREST (IF NOT, THE POOREST) COMMUNITIES IN THE U.S. WE DON'T NEED PEOPLE LIKE THIS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF US!

I WILL PURSUE EVERY AVENUE AVAILABLE (BBB, STATE ATTNY GENERAL, NEW MEXICO ACCOUNTING OFFICE, HUERFANO WORLD JOURNAL NEWSPAPER... ETC.

NO STARS!!!!

Original review Apr 15, 2024
Patricia Craven has had my threee years of tax returns since February 25 and still hasnt filed my taxes!!! Patty had my taxes for 2020/2021 since 2020 bc she allegedly got locked out of her emails.

She has no excuse for not getting my taxes done by today. So now I have 3 years and havent filed!!!

I will be filing a complaint and taking HRBlock /Patty to court over my fines that are owed to IRS bc Patty had plenty of time to file them. I cannot believe you have such a lazy woman as a supervisor when she is incapable of returning phone calls, refusing to see me at scheduled time today only to not have my taxes done.

Service @***.Robert Location

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

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.
