It very much is a slimy ordeal/scam you are trying to pull!
I have filed taxes using TurboTax Free online for the past 2 years. Nothing has changed with my employment in the past two years! All the details and everything is exactly the same!
And now suddenly this year, TurboTax is trying to force me to pay 110$ (60$ federal and 50$ state) saying "It seems you have an HSA and this is not covered in Free File". This was not the case for the past two years!
I have 0 individual HSA contributions on my end. And the contribution by my employer is already listed in my W2 in box 12. You guys have introduced this new catch to try and force people to upgrade.
You purposely have introduced it at the end of the process, wasting my time! After going through the entire process, when it comes to the step of filing, you introduce your scam by saying your case is not include in Free File, please upgrade to deluxe.
Looks like I am going to be looking for alternate platforms. Thanks!
