Back story: I had my taxes done a few weeks ago and responded to an email from H&R Block to share a review of my experience. I did not have a positive experience and wrote the following: «Would Never Do it Again I went in to have my taxes done at H&R Block because I bought a house in 2013 and wanted to make sure I completed my taxes correctly. I had used the H&R Block online system the past two years & was satisfied with it. The gentleman who helped me was pleasant & professional, but he had to look just about everything up, had to ask a colleague for several answers, didn’t know how to deduct my mortgage points(and didn’t), had trouble with the HSA form, didn’t ask me if I had had a theft in the past year(I had — turns out it’s a line item and deductible — found THAT out from my Mother) and didn’t write off the preparer’s fees(again, had to find out you could do that from my Mom). Even though I had 7 months of mortgage interest and various fees to add to this year’s taxes, my refund was only about $ 400 more than last year and I had to pay $ 235 for the service. In my opinion, paying 25% of your total refund in preparation fees to someone who I do not believe got me the maximum refund was a waste of my time and money. For this reason, I will not go back next year nor would I ever refer anyone to H&R Block for tax preparation services. On an unrelated note, your survey form is created incorrectly. One star is strongly disagree, 2 is noted as agree, 3 neutral, 4 is agree again…» Today I got notice that my review was rejected for«not meeting guidelines» the link to the guidelines page led to an error. This says to me that not only did this particular H&R Block not meet any of my expectations, but that they also do not care about improving customer experiences. In my opinion, you should get your taxes done elsewhere.
