Please tell us why the refund monitor feature was removed by default!

This was one of the best features of Turbotax.  I have been using it for years and likewise am very disappointed that the feature was removed.   Perhaps everyone should start looking at the new IRS Direct File software if this is not remediated.

What feature was removed?  The Refund monitor at the top?  It's still there but some people have had trouble getting it to show.

Found this answer from last year.....
Is there a > symbol at the top left where the refund monitor should be? If so, click that > symbol and the refund monitor should then appear.

Do you have "RaceMode" at the top where the refund monitor should be? Click the toggle next to RaceMode, or click Review on the right, to get rid of RaceMode and see the refund monitor.

Or Look just above the green progress line and see Explain my taxes > . Click the arrow after the word taxes to see your refund/balance due amount.

I find that meter annoying.   It changes every time I add more income and I don't enjoy seeing it go down.  People think they are getting a big return and then are upset when they finish their taxes and that number is much lower than when they started.

The missing "refund monitor" in some versions is a known issue that has been reported.   If clicking "Review" does not make it appear for you, sorry..   We hope they solve the problem soon.

Agreed, This was one of the best features of Turbotax.  I think Turbo Tax no longer cares to listen the users. They have become "too big to care". Time to leave Turbo tax

Agreed, very disappointed in Turbo Tax for removing the refund meter. I will be shopping for other products. Turbo tax is becoming like a company “too big to listen to customers”
