I agree. It is misleading that the selection of "payment of TurboTax fees to be deducted from Federal Refund" automatically triggers SBTPG involvement to set up a bank holding account with a $40 fee to SBTPG and a $25 fee to TurboTax. The problem is solely with TurboTax, since SBTPG is strictly a scam money lending company. TurboTax on the other hand was aware that there would be NO fees due to TurboTax since the return was processed on a purchased software on my desktop. If no fees will be due to TurboTax, then there was no need to have the account set up and to have $40 and $25 withheld. TurboTax should refund these fees and should modify their software to be more transparent.
