My stimulus check was sent to the wrong account. And I went through TurboTax to make sure the account was right and it still sent to the wrong account. I tried calling them to get help with this and they want $30 to fix something that they messed up I will never use TurboTax again.

What was Turbotax asking you for money to do?  If you googled "turbotax support" you probably got a scammer.  The only way to get a legitimate Turbotax support phone number is to use the secure web form.

 

Once the IRS has deposited your money, there is nothing Turbotax can do to get it back, so I can't understand any legitimate service they would charge money for.  You need to deal with the IRS, or the bank.
