Re: Why is my code not working and how do I fix it?

anndaemer

I bought the Turbo Tax to install on my computer - without CD. I can't get the activation page to work. I tried for an hour and I've been chatting with a less than helpful AI Chat and I've about lost my mind. I've also tried to call the 800 number and the call keeps failing. My next step is to post the nightmare on their Facebook page if they have one!

I bought the Turbo Tax deluxe like I have done

for at least the last 10 years,

It's the download version - NPOTY online or CD version.

I have been "chatting" with Turbo Tax's AI program for over an hour and done ALL the things it told me to do. I've also called the 800 number and the calls fail to go through. Sorry, but suggesting I go to the Turbo Tax page is NOT helpful.

Sorry you're having trouble. You haven't mentioned what the issue is other than "can't get it to work," which is not enough to go on. Did you install your product as in the FAQ below, and are you using the activation screen that's pictured in the FAQ? If so, what happens when you proceed to enter the license code, which is a 16-digit alphanumeric code? Does it provide any error message?

Here's another option:

You mentioned Facebook above. If you use social media, you can contact a TurboTax Support agent directly through messaging at Facebook or X, where they should be able to help you with a license code issue.
