WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER From my amazon review - For HRB's 2023 Tax Software "Deluxe" (What a joke - as in BAD) Federal & State which I cut and pasted for the H&R "Customer Survey" they sent to me today by e-mail: Submitted my return at 4 PM EST 4/15/2024. Was rejected at 5:30 PM. No big deal....right. Called "Customer Support/Help" (in quotation marks for a reason, as in SARCASM) at 9 PM and got a recording, "No one is available to help you. CALL BACK IN TWO HOURS." Huh? - As in 11 PM EST. Called again at 10 PM and selected the "Call Me Back" option. Waited until 11:30 PM - 30 minutes before the IRS Cutoff - and waited for 30 minutes until "Yka" called me at 12 AM ON THE DOT - GREAT, NOW I AM LATE - and she condescendingly admonished me for, apparently, being an idiot (FYI - I am NOT technically illiterate) - Gee, were the thousands of other "customers" whose returns did not get filed due to a "glitch" (again, POORLY WRITTEN SOFTWARE) ALSO morons? I don't think so. I then gave "Yka" a piece of my mind whereupon she hung up on me. I finally got it accepted by the IRS at 1:33 AM EST. LATE. I have worked in call centers and can tell you that ANYONE who talked to a client like that and then hung up on them WOULD HAVE BEEN FIRED ON THE SPOT AND THEN WALKED OUT OF THE BUILDING. I have seen it happen more than once. I did NOT use any profanity but I DID take offense to having to take "guff" - not the word I WANT to use - from someone who took TWO HOURS TO DELIVER AN INSULT AFTER THE DEADLINE HAD PASSED. I'll be GOING BACK TO TURBOTAX. AND I WANT MY MONEY BACK. BUYER BEWARE........YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Last day of tax filing system and H&R… Last day of tax filing system and H&R Block announces it's filing system is down for maintenance. Didn't bother sharing that when they accepted my payment. How can your system be down on the last day to file return or request extension?

I've never had such a bad experience I've never had such an unprofessional person handle my finances. It was almost comical how bad it was. His attitude was alright, he was generally friendly but I had to walk out. After an hour and fifteen minutes we hadn't even started my tax return. He kept inputting information wrong then having to start all over again and kept getting pulled to do other things because of how long it was taking. Simple things like my phone number and social that he had written down, he kept putting in wrong. He was entering my employers address as my own, mispelling common words, and his filing system was a collection of documents scattered on the floor of his work space (some of which he was running over with his computer chair.). I ended up having to walk out, very embarrassing. I've just never had someone that incompetent in charge of something that important and just expect me to be okay with it.

Website and corporate management is awful. My tax preparer is great despite poor working conditions. My personal tax preparer for more than 20 years is fabulous. H&R Block Corp is incompetent. One of the worst websites I've ever dealt with. Called the local office I use for more than a decade. No answer though it was during business hours the greeting states. Invites me to leave a voice message and then there's no way to do it. It's 17 days til tax filing time. How is there no one there. My understanding is that receptionists in the Edgewater NJ office has been out during the week and no one is answering calls. After writing this called the 800 number for H&R Block corporate office. Chose "leave a message for my tax preparer." Transferred me to customer service told her and she kept insisting for me to make an appointment. Told her No, wanted to leave a message. The office wasn't answering or providing any way to leave a message. She laughed. Told her laughing about this is offensive. She hung up.

H&R block is one of the worst companies… H&R block is one of the worst companies I have worked with. I had fraudulent activity on my account and disputed and they denied my claim.
