I thought I'd share my adventure contacting the state tax people. I called the phone number for checking the status of my California tax payment figuring it would be a several day adventure. A person answered on the second ring (no call tree) and gathered some info and said that they had gotten a rejection from my bank. They told me how to do my own payment on line. I did that and the payment happened. I almost fell over with surprise!
Hopefully I will remember this next year when dealing with Turbo Tax. That is, I will make sure that I enter the correct routing and account numbers for any payments and refunds.
Cheers,
Larry
