Have you paid and/or filed your tax return?

 

If you have not paid and/or filed your tax return. you may be able Select Tax Tools from the left menu, then Clear & Start Over in a new free tax return.

That's exactly what I thought I saw a TurboTax was supposed to be free but that's not even the issue the issue is I found my tax in January I'm just now getting a response due to your era TurboTax made and now I got to pay you because every time for almost 6 months my account my income tax was rejected on your error your information you're put in so I advise anybody that used TurboTax don't do it I have never experienced this and all my 50 something years and you going to take pennies and nickels and dimes for me when it was supposed to have been free and I'll say it again and I shout it out if you plan on using TurboTax don't do it because it's not free.

There is no place to file a complaint and no refund. When the upgrades happened you were told and approved. by clicking to continue.  If you clicked through without reading the screens that is not a reason for refunding.

The agent that I spoke to on the phone advised me to file a dispute with the credit card company.  I feel like the website is misleading and did not show visibility for the free option.  Is my only option to file a dispute?

TurboTax service is TERRIBLE. Full of EXCUSES from the tax experts!!! With this pre-price preview rate of $409, I can get a CPA to amend 2022 tax and file my tax for me in 2023 both State and Federal Taxes.  TurboTax took my paid service fees of $200+ for HORRIBLE guided tax experts in 2022, 3+ days, and almost a week waiting period and an extension of my 2023 tax year, and still couldn't figure out my personal income tax with only TWO 1099-B statements with less than 200 option transactions, a HSA tax form, and TWO W2 statements. TURBOTAX service is getting WORST year over year and over charging their customers!!!

During TAX season, I never get to talk to any TAX EXPERT and I had to file for EXTENSION.

TERRIBLE!!!!!

The more you complain, the more TurboTax slows down its customer service and charges you more. This is the way you treat your customers. I can't sit in silent about this issue and I will let many people know as much as I can.

Where is my refund your holding my funds hostage for almost 3 months now. Keep lying saying the funds is sent out. I contacted cross river bank they are just the account holder they don’t distribute the checks unless are told by turbo tax I want my refund. I paid for a service. I got an Attorny reviewing the case. I will not use turbo tax again or recommend anyone to do so.

Please contact us for further assistance.  When you reach an agent, please tell them you need to speak with the team that handles the Up To 5 Days Early checks.  Once you are transferred, let them know that you would like to have a new check issued to you.

No one in the user forum can resolve a billing issue.  If you have a question about your TurboTax fees or billing, make sure you use the word “billing” in your request for help.  Do not use the word “refund.”

Subject: Urgent Complaint – Duplicate Charges and Unresponsive Tax Expert

 

Dear TurboTax Customer Support Team,

I have been using TurboTax Full Service for the past three years (2023, 2024, and now 2025), and until this year, I was satisfied with the service.

 

However, I recently discovered two duplicate charges of $435.38 on my account:

February 8, 2025 – $435.38

February 12, 2025 – $435.38

I was originally informed that Full Service would cost approximately $300 (or slightly more), which I agreed to. I did not authorize or receive any explanation for being charged twice for $435.38. I have contacted multiple representatives, but no one has been able to explain or resolve these duplicate charges.

Additionally, I am experiencing a serious service issue with my assigned tax expert, Kenya W. While she was initially responsive, she has now been unresponsive for the past three weeks. My tax return has not been completed or submitted. She mentioned that she sent documents for my review and approval, but I have not received anything. My messages have gone unanswered, and my filing remains incomplete.

This situation is urgent. I need:

Immediate investigation and refund of the duplicate $435.38 charge

A clear breakdown of all fees charged to my account

Immediate reassignment to a responsive tax expert

Confirmation of when my return will be completed and filed

 

I trusted TurboTax with my tax filing, and this level of service and billing error is extremely concerning. Please escalate this matter to a supervisor or billing specialist immediately.

 

I look forward to your prompt response and resolution.
