I always had Schedule D transactions AND have used Turbo Tax Deluxe (CD version from Amazon) for past 4-5 years without a problem. Tax year 2024 everything changed. CD version was no longer available (no mention of a change in the software), so I ordered the download version. That's how I learned that Sch D was out-of-scope for 2024 Deluxe and would need to upgrade to Premier Version - BUT I had already been charged for the 2024 Deluxe version. I don't have a problem with upgrading to "Premier for Investments & Rental Properties" >>> as long as I only have to pay the difference in price between the two versions (which in my case amounts to $27.00). Otherwise this a major scam on the part of Turbo Tax. I should have been informed about the change in the scope of the new Deluxe version BEFORE I purchased it - definitely fraudulent advertising.
You also have been scammed - especially since it accepted your brokerage transactions AND prepared a correct tax return for both Fed & State. The Turbo Tax software has been getting a lot of feedback from many unhappy (angry?) customers. Why should you (and me) have to pay for TWO different versions because they produced a software product riddled with BUGS? You can still use TTax for 2025 (if you so choose). It's the same as if you are a first-time customer. BUT TTax needs to step up to plate and resolve these software problems they alone are responsible for ! ! !
