Horrible service Employee made mistakes on my taxes, women owner was rude and deflected all responsibility. Wanted 400 on top of the 550 to make amendment. Horrible.

Ok, I’ve had an accountant in Marina Del Rey for the last ten years that I thought was expensive. He charged me $ 550 to do my taxes. I am a concert musician and I have several 1099s coming in and some musical instrument purchases to list under depreciation, so I am not the simplest to deal with, I realize that. However, my accountant talked to my broker on the phone from time to time to decide if I needed to put more into my 401k for instance, to minimize my payout to the government. He retired, so I thought i’d just go to my local H & R Block. The guy charged me $ 880!!! And, was going to have me pay on $ 26k of capitol gains when I’d clearly taken a distribution from a death benefit… I had to call my broker and translate for this guy… he never thought to ask my broker about putting some more into my IRA, or to ask me of other possible deductions, just the old water heater replacement benefit… Turbo Tax could have gotten me that! The guy wasn’t all that bad but a heads up on the possible fee before he did all of the work would have been enough to make me run and save my u know what… GET A REALACCOUNTANTPEOPLE!!! H & R Block charges you by the LINE… the number of items, not by the knowledgeable service you get!!!
