Extremely Poor Experience with Customer Service Regarding Issues with Discount Service Code

Hello,

 

After having issues with the online Turbotax software while completing my 2023 tax return last year, I was given a discount service code. Before I received the discount service code last year, I had paid for the tax program online to lock in a price before it went up at the beginning of March. I was told by the rep giving me the discount service code that I would be able to use it for the next year.

 

Fast forward to this year. I went to enter my discount service code, and received the message "The code you entered is not valid. Please check the number and try entering again." I know that I have entered it correctly. So, I called customer service this morning to help resolve this issue. I was on the phone for 50 minutes. The only suggestions the customer service rep had were to continue trying to enter the code, and that maybe it was a temporary issue. I asked to speak with a manager and was told that there was not a manager available, even though I am calling at 9am CST. The issue was not resolved, and yet I felt helpless because the customer service rep could not offer me any further assistance or any where to transfer me.

 

How can I move forward to activate my discount service code? I have been using turbotax since 2016 but am really considering moving on because this customer service experience has been terrible.

That's certainly not the experience we want our users to have.  While I know this has been frustrating I am going to recommend that you call back to customer service and speak to a different customer service rep and see about resolving your issue with your discount code.

 

Here is where to contact TurboTax.
