    Big Home Tax is not an authorized TurboTax retailer. Go to the link that VolvoGirl posted above for a list of authorized retailers.

    No, they're a scammer.  They sell fake license keys.

    NO! THIS IS A SCAM SITE SELLING USED LICENSES FOR SOFTWARE! I purchased a personal tax program as well as a business tax program at the same time from "BigHomeTax". Both licenses popped a code 605 while trying to activate and said they were invalid. I contacted the company through their "text" helpline and was provided with two different codes. Both of those showed invalid as well when trying to activate. I was given a 3rd set of activation keys which also failed. Stay away.

    Thank you! I was tempted but the online reviews seemed fishy.

    Absolutely not a credible reseller.  Everything listed in the TurboTax community is true.   I just experienced it myself    Even though their website says, legitimate and authorized reseller of TurboTax, they are not    They are fraudsters

    basically if you load the software the first time and you activate the key code, you might be OK  

    if you delete and reinstall the software and try to activate again or if you try to activate it on another computer, it will block you

     

    when I contacted TurboTax today they showed that all five licenses were used despite me only using one of them

     

    their customer service is only a text line and they’ll continue to give you the same standard runaround for days on days on days

     

    my question is, why isn’t TurboTax security investigating them and shutting them down.   Tubber taxes, not doing their customers any service by not shutting down the fraudulent resellers of their product    TurboTax needs to fix it as they are doing their customers and And brand a major disservice

     

    The insult to injury is that TurboTax would not give me a new activation code unless I paid them another hundred dollars.  This is their fault that they have not shut down this site after the numerous complaints that I’ve been filed From their community.    I take full responsibility that I didn’t review the TurboTax community before I bought from them. I would’ve avoided this situation.  

    Do not buy from this organization ever
