I've been using TurboTax for about 6 years now and NEVER had an issue with my refund until today. Now when asked did I want to pay for my fees with my refund I agreed. Now my refund wasn't that much to begin with this year for some reason $490 subtract the fees $402 so I'm expecting that amount. Today 2/26/2025. $249 was deposited.
I'm trying to see why but can't get an answer from TurboTax customer service, or the IRS or the Treasury dept. I was giving bogus numbers to call. From this day forward I will NEVER use TurboTax again or deal with that bogus 3rd party company TPG you all are crooks and working together.

Is the amount sent/issued by the IRS the same as the refund amount shown on your federal tax return Form 1040 Line 35a? - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
If not, then go to this IRS website for information on reduced refunds - https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc203
Are you also receiving a state tax refund? If so, the state refund is sent directly to you based on how you chose to receive the state tax refund, it does not go through the third party processor.
Use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund
If you requested to have the TurboTax account fees deducted from your federal tax refund, the IRS will send the refund to a third party processor to have the fees and the $40 service charge deducted. The third party processor will deduct the TurboTax fees plus the $40 service charge and then attempt to direct deposit the remaining refund balance into the account that you entered on your tax return.
For the status of your tax refund you will need to contact the third party processor, Santa Barbara Tax Product Group, using their website - https://www.sbtpg.com/

I have the same issue. Now mine wasn’t quite as much as yours but I am missing $ off my return also after paying $168 in fees for my return, my TurboTax product (which wouldn’t allow me to choose a cheaper one) and a $40 fee for paying with my refund. Yet I can’t get an answer why I am missing the money. I looked online at the irs site and it says I was paid the total I was supposed to be paid. I’m stumped. But if they do this to everyone for $1-10 then TurboTax just raked in millions off us without consent
