Can't Amend Return

So, I filed my taxes thru TurboTax for 2018. During this time, I had lived in ND until 10/21/18 and OH after that. It turns out they messed up when filing my taxes. TT put my ND income into my OH taxable income and my entire year of income into my ND taxes. I paid more than I was supposed to for BOTH states. Now, when I try to amend my 2018 return, they expect me to pay them AGAIN for something I already paid them to screw up the first time? Can't even talk to somebody on the phone because I refuse to pay for them to scam me again. Any staff want to help me out, or are you just going to delete this post and move on?

    If you used and paid for the online program then there is no fee to amend it now ... 

     

    See this TurboTax FAQ for help with amending:

    https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1894381-how-to-amend-change-or-correct-a-return-you-already-filed

     

    If you still need assistance then ask from inside the downloaded federal program to get it ...

    Yeah, I tried amending it. It makes me download their software which seems sketchy AF. But I did it anywayIt tries to charge me $40 for amending my state refund.

     

    Also, that link trying to get a phone number says this:

     

    Free Edition (without PLUS): When you select Talk to a specialist, you'll be asked to add PLUS benefits first.

     

    I should not have to pay to talk to someone because they messed up something I already paid them for. It would be like going to a restaurant, ordering a meal, getting the wrong one, and then bring asked to pay for the replacement meal.

     

    Anything else?
