What users are saying

1. I had to call customer support after they took my money for my state return, and when I went to click the E-file button it kicked me out and I was unable to log back in.

2. It took them a few hours to restore my account and I was finally able to file my federal and state return.

3. The issue i had, and it was enough to turn me away from filing with them is if you accidentally backed too far out and tried to sign back in the verification code was reading as incorrect no matter how many codes they sent me.

4. But I was super stressed out because of my experience with TurboTax last year.When it worked it was good.

5. I can't even download my return from the site! All I get is a spinning circle! I was logged out 7 times while trying to input my info originally.

6. It worked fine until this year! I used it for the last 3 years and now that I'm doing this year's taxes, I can't get in to my account.

7. Navigating away from it in your phone, whether its by hitting the back button, hitting the home screen, or getting a call will cause the app to sign you out and erase all of your progress.

8. I will NEVER use them again & will tell everyone I know about the horrible experience!One of the worst apps I've ever used! It's buggy, slow, and literally kicks you out and locks your account.

9. Then it didn't file!!! I'm still trying to get it to file & need to get my AGI from last year.

10. Every time I try to put my W-2 info in to the app it tries to make me take a picture instead of allowing me to put the info in myself.

11. Oh, and no contact info whatsoever.Terrible experience.
