My wife and I first tried HR Block on ************************* in ********, ** last year. Our tax preparer told us she was not able to finish the return on time and would file an extension. She never did and we had to pay a late filing fee. She did not own the fact she did not file the extension. We tried again this year. We reached out for a status and only heard "be patient". Since we had not heard back by 04/17/2022 my wife sent an email to the Enrolled Agent (EA) to file an extension and told her we would not pay a late... read more

I have been using H&R Blocks online software to file my taxes for years, but ran into a bug while trying to submit my return this year. I was advised by customer support to pay for their deluxe package which would fix the bug I was experiencing. I reluctantly purchased the deluxe program, but it did not fix the bug. Though frustrated, I continued to use the software to file my return. The deluxe package included review services from a Tax Professional, however, the professional assigned to me would take a week to respond eve... read more

I made an appointment a month ago and was helped by an advisor to handle taxes for a trust. I am the fiduciary trustee. I asked specifically for the best consultant but the woman I got was very confused. She has to make several phone calls to get help from H&R escalation accountants. I left the work with her and after 2 weeks she finally called back to let me know she had the issues resolved. I went in, paid a fee of $500 and received receipts and copies of my return only to find out 1 week ago that my electronic filing had ... read more

I sent in my taxes to be reviewed by a "tax pro" on 4/8/22. The tax pro contacted me on 4/10, and then disappeared. The deadline to file has passed and I still haven't heard back from them. I called in to complain and get a different tax pro and have been on hold for 4 hours. This company is a joke and their staff is unprofessional and unreliable. I'm switching to Turbo Tax.

***** at the Bellingham, MA is a scam artist. The website said starting at ***** but ***** never once mentioned upfront cost of $****** does that make sense. That's Stealing, had I known I would filed with Turbo Tax. She wasted my time. I spent all that time uploading to her and she failed to mention upfront is was going to be ******, no way in h*** would I have waited for that. IT's obvious, she had stated the upfront cost people would've hung up the phone. Call it greed but she wanted the tax refund money and gave herself ... read more

H&R Block adds fees as a requirement for filing taxes after one has already prepared their taxes on the free version. It is not until you attempt to file your taxes that you are told additional fees apply for itemization and for state filing. State filing was expressly stated as free in the version I selected when I began, and once I finished preparing my taxes they charged me an additional $45.

H&R block in *********************, ** is the worst because I took our business taxes for the year of 2020 we are behind they had all our papers for 2.5 months I called to find out how much longer after I dropped it off they said the the tax preparer she had not even touched them, it was too complicated and to much paperwork to go through, I am getting my paperwork back today and will have to find someone else that knows taxes

Because of a computer glitch my 2020 taxes were not filled correctly. Now we owe $4K in taxes! I've trusted H&R block to handle my taxes for years; no longer. I also have to pay fees and penalties that will supposedly be paid by H&R AFTER I pay the ****. H&R also filed an adjustment to my taxes without my signature or permission. Horrible, horrible experience. And now we have a $4K ****. HORRIBLE!

I had made an appointment to have my taxes done on the 14th of April,2022. I uploaded all of my forms, ID, answered all questions about my history etc on website with my CPA in my profile. My appt was for the 15th at 1pm. My CPA was supposed to email me a quote for price by 10am yesterday morning, he emailed me at 9 and told me he was canceling my 1pm appt and that he had all forms he needed and he would have a quote to me in the next few minutes and that he would start my taxes right away and have them finished yesterday. I... read more
