Today we received a "refund" check from Green Dot Bank with $70 worth of deductions: 1. Amount paid for tax preparations services: $24.99 4. Refund transfer processing fee: $34.99 6. Reprocessing fee: $20. None of this should have been involved in processing our federal return -- which should have been direct deposited, not appeared in our mailbox in the form of this check.
Our bank account # and transfer # haven't changed in years, and so it's bogus to claim that it couldn't be processed.
Green Dot Bank strikes me as a crooked outfit from which TurboTax should disassociate itself. I am pissed, and I will not be using TurboTax in the future if this is not satisfactorily resolved. Thanks.
