At the beginning of 2024, I bought a tax preparation and submission software from H&R Block with e-file (Screenshot 1). H&R Block sold it with a specific advertisement about e-files (Screenshot 2). When I filed before the deadline of April 15, the software failed and I was obliged to file paper returns which costed me and addition payment. I nevertheless alerted H&R Block. **** ***** contacted me and acknowledged the problem with BBB (Screenshot 3) and with me. She escalated the problem to software developers which fixed the problem many days after I had filed. So the fix (good for H&R Block) was of no use for me. I tried to contact **** ***** and my mail failed because she is no more in that position at H&R Block or no more with H&R Block. I contacted H&R Block by phone and FINALLY talked to someone abut the problem. I got a stunning answer: H&R BLOCK DOES NOT GUARANTEE E-FILING!!!!!! This is scandalous because the advertisement does not mention (quite the contrary "We have your back"). BOTTOM LINE: This is my second complaint after I had closed the first while TRUSTING that H&R Block was taking me seriously and fairly. Unfortunately, this was not the case. MY REQUEST: I need someone empowered by H&R Block to contact me directly without me having to go through hell to talk with an empowered employee. I want a fair arrangement on the part of H&R Block. NOTES: I had uploaded my tax file to H&R Block and this is how **** ***** was able to identify the software bug. I was cooperative enough with her and I do not deserve this despicable attitude. If I get satisfaction, I will close this complaint, but if I do not get a reliable human contact, I will find the appropriate government agency to escalate my complaint because this is an unacceptable business practice

Dear Better Business Bureau,

In response to ***** ********** complaint:

As stated in the previous complaint. There is no guarantee that returns can be e-filed.
We do realize this was an inconvenience and the frustration it has caused. So we are
refunding $30 as a goodwill gesture, please accept our apologies.

The check will need to be mailed. Mr. ******** needs to provide a mailing address.

Complaint: ********
I am refusing the H&R Block “offer” for the following reasons:
1- I do not take tips ($30 as an H&R Block gesture)
2- I asked for a simple and normal arrangement, namely a reimbursement for a purchase that did not measure up to its claim
3- If I had asked for the damage that was caused me, I would have billed for the following:
a- The time I wasted trying to get the software to work
b- The time I spent going a good number of times through the totally unresponsive automated telephone system until I get to an inept “support” person
c- The time it took for printing and checking the paper return
d- The cost of express shipping state and US tax returns
4- If I had asked for the time I spent with H&R individuals (for instance **** *****) to help H&R Block fix the bug I found IN THEIR SOFTWARE and that they ended up fixing, I would have sent a consulting bills since I am a software expert and I have managed hundreds of software developers
5- Since H&R Block does not see the insult in their “$30 hush money”, I will actually tell my experience (proofs in hand) on my blog instead of continuing this inane interaction.

H&R Block delayed contact with us in June of 2024 (You cant email or call your rep anymore) so I missed my June tax deadlines, possibly incurring fines. I also didnt know how to file, was never given instructions, or a link, or a reminder email, or anything. 2023 H&R Tax Rep ******** ***** had moved on. After weeks of calls and emails, we got a new rep, who finished the 2024 job by: providing vouchers, printed envelopes, and explained the due dates, instructions filing: on when, how, and how much estimated tax I should pay for this year(In order to avoid fines). HOW CAN A TAX BUSINESS FAIL to help client correctly pay their taxes -going forward? What about customer service? We have been w H&R for years!! H&R Block understands estimated taxes on a 1099 job, but ***** left us , after we paid, high and dry, without a way to contact our her/ or another representative. WE HAD TO TAKE THE INITIATIVE WHEN WE HAD NO EXPERTISE! This resulted in stress, and possibly, fines from the IRS. When we finally got in touch with another H&R Rep (no explanation why our original rep wasn’t available), they provided what is necessary, at my request. But, it was now past the June 2024 tax deadline I had been trying to meet. I want my money back from the prior 2023 tax year- they did not provide a complete service, and they caused me a BIG problem, when I paid for their expertise and guidance to do our taxes correctly. Our 2023 rep ***** didnt even bring this 2024 estimated taxes issue up-she just filed 2023, and took her money, and ran. H&R Block didnt follow up for her. No emails, no notification that this Rep might be gone, nothing but crickets!!! UNACCEPTABLE H&R BLOCK.

Responding to H&R Block's offer to provide a bonus if I routed some or all of my 2023 federal tax refund to them to purchase an ****** gift card, I elected to do so, designating $5000 towards the gift card. H&R Block later e-mailed that there would be 3 payments to ******. On March 12, 2024 $1100 was added to my gift card balance ($1000 of the refund plus the bonus of $100). On March 19, 2024 my gift card balance was increased by $2000. The remaining $2000 did not show up in my gift card balance. On May 20, 2024, after phone calls, which were transferred several times, I was told that my case, #******** would be resolved in 3-5 business days. On June 4, 2024, 10 business days having elapsed, I was told that the “escalation team” would resolve this within 5 business days. I was not allowed to talk with the escalation team directly. On June 17, 2024 , 9 more business days having elapsed, the 12th agent I spoke to since my first call could not move this matter forward. Similarly, on the next 2 days of calls, the last word, from agent #14 was that “the escalation team was working on this.” On June 18, 2024 I received an e-mail from the H&R Block Product Support Team, noting in part, “We wanted to let you know that we have sent another request to ****** on 6/6/2024 to reissue your refund e-gift card to this email address. …If you have additional questions, we can be reached ….” Note that the 14 agents I have spoken with have all been sympathetic and professional, but NONE has had the authority or freedom to resolve this matter. I am still owed $2000.

I have been a customer of hrblock for almost 20 years. I received a ****** Advance in November 2023. And on March 31, I made my first payment at that point I talked to customer service and I paid $400 and I asked that couple months of payments and then I would pay it off. They agreed and said that that was fine. And then I paid another 200 at the beginning of June, On June 14, I paid the loan completely off. However, on June 15, H&R Block reported to my credit bureau that I had to 2 missed payments One in May and one in June. I did not miss any payments. I spoke to H&R Block and they assured me that everything I did was correct When I spoke to them when I made the first payment. I have paid all of the interest payments and ended up paying Over $1300 back . I am trying to buy my first home. I have six children. I have worked very hard to build my credit and to pay everything on time. The only reason I got the emerald advance so they would report positive activity and raise my credit score. However, the opposite occurred and when they reported the two late payments, it dropped my credit score 50 points . We are supposed to be closing on our house on July 3 and this could ruin everything from my family. I am asking H&R Block to remove these late payments from my credit report. I have reached out to customer service multiple times and they keep telling me they can’t help me, and say they would escalate it, but no one has reached out to me. Someone please help! I have worked so hard to be able to buy our first home for our family. I pray to God that this message reaches somebody and they can fix this for my family. My phone number is ###-###-####.

In response to ***** ******* complaint:

According to the payment schedule received by the Financial Department, there were two missed payments.
There are no payments recorded for April 2024 or May 2024. On 5/14, there was a Late Fee Reversal of $30.00.

We are required to report this account accurately to the credit bureau. Based on the payments above *** ***** was past due and did not pay the account in full until June.
I have attached the Schedule of Payments.

Complaint: ********

I am rejecting this response because:
As I said before i spoke with hrblock customer service right before i made the 400 payment on march 31,2024 and The customer service agreed upon the payment plan and excepted my payment and was supposed to apply it to April and May. H&R Block states that they record every conversation so I know that this conversation is there. I have been a H&R Block customer for Almost 20 years!!! This year I had issues with my tax return partly because of getting married . And I would hope that they would treat their customers better than this. Especially the ones that have brought them, not just personal business but I have also sent many friends and family and associates over the years. I truly hope that HR Block makes the effort to find the call improves that everything I said is true and does what is right!

Dear Better Business Bureau,

In response to *** ******* rebuttal:

*** ***** also has an Executive Escalations case that we are currently working. We truly understand her dilemma. *** ***** would like us to reverse the report sent to the credit bureau, as a goodwill gesture. As much as we would like to do this, we can't do this, it would be unethical.

The agreement of the loan was it should be paid by 3/31/24, there was a 14-day grace period to pay the loan. This loan never had monthly payments.
It was supposed to be paid off completely by March 31st and within the 14-day grace period. The report sent to the credit bureau is based on the loan not being paid off completely by the date above.

For over 27 years, I have had HR Block prepare my taxes (and my individual family members taxes) and I have always purchased Peace of Mind from them to deal with any tax mistakes. For 2023 tax returns, I had HR Block prepare my taxes on 2/24/24. In checking the IRS website on 4/24, I noticed that IRS declared I owed the IRS $108. 88. I immediately notified HR Block and they advised that I wait until a letter is issued from IRS. I received, scanned and sent the IRS letter to HR Block on 5/11/24. HR Block failed in accurately preparing and calculating my taxes, failed to provide service as advertised per Peace of Mind product, and wasted significant time making promises they were not able to fulfill (i.e. someone will call me back, its been escalated to management and management will call me back). I have requested numerous times for HR Block to fulfill its obligations and talked with numerous HR Block representatives, district managers etc to no avail, as all of what they told me were straight up lies. I have paid the IRS $108.88 (due 5/27 as there were additional penalties if I did not pay them. As of today (6/17/24), I have not received any payment for HR Blocks miscalculations (per peace of mind progam), nor any contact/apologies from their management and how they will proceed in resolving this. All I have received is continuous stream of lies where they will solve it in the next 2-4 weeks without any action

Dear Better Business Bureau,

Regarding *** ****** complaint, our office leadership has advised the client that an underpayment penalty is not an error in his tax return but a penalty that the IRS assessed. The client was insistent that we file a Peace of Mind Claim. This we did do, and explained to him that the terms of Peace of Mind does not include such a penalty.

We consider this matter resolved.

Totally disagree with business response.

HR BLOCK is a business entity that is selling services based on professional and industry knowledge. The mere fact that they were not aware of IRS rules does not excuse them from collecting monies for services that failed to meet industry practices of providing a comprehensive and thorough tax preparation service. This is no better than a bait and switch service consumers are deceived by on a daily basis.
BBB please take action on the misrepresentation of HR BLOCK services as their tax preparation is deceitful and does not provide a complete picture of what taxes and penalties are based on IRS CODE.

We had our taxes prepared by **** ******, in the Piedmont office, on April 10, 2024. In addition to preparing our 2023 taxes, **** was going to file an amendment for our 2022 taxes. We brought my files from 2022; **** asked if she could hold on to them to look into the discrepancy found by the IRS. We never heard from her again.. I had to contact the office and make an appointment with someone else to complete the amended return. When I asked about getting our 2022 files back, I was told they could not contact **** "post season". I've made several calls to the office to see if someone can locate my files, to no avail. I have also made 3 visits to the office physically to try to get a supervisor to assist, to no avail. I have emailed and left voice messages for ******* ******** and ******** ******** I still have not received any response. It seems to me that **** should be able to be contacted to find out what she did with our personal files that contain all our sensitive information: SSN's, Banking information, IRA information, etc. This is a very serious matter and we need someone to address this as soon as possible. We would like our 2022 tax files returned to us and to feel confident they aren't somewhere for public access.

On April 1, 2024 I contracted with H&R block in Ludlow MA to prepare my wife and my taxes. I paid $260.00 for their "professional" tax preparer service. Thye offer a "100 Accuracy Guarantee. After being told how much ($3,1500 I owed the Federal government I sent in the taxes owed and submitted my returns. Several weeks later I received a $135.41 refund check from the government due to "incorrect penalty applied". Now this was not a "tax refund". It was a partial refund of what I paid. So I didn;t "get extra back". I got back what I should have NEVE%R paid. I have terminal brain cancer and my wife and I are struggling to make ends meet and I paid $260 for their "professional" tax preparation. I have tried to call and email and they have been unresponsive. This has been going on since May. As they know about my terminal condition I feel they are trying to "wait me out". They have promised return calls which have never come. They have ignored emails. I am week from chemo and this is a physical struggle for me and certainly an emotional struggle for my wife. We have so many other things to worry about that we DO NOT need these games

Dear Better Business Bureau,

In response to ******* *******' complaint:

The District Manager states they thought this issue was resolved. The tax pro spoke with Mr. *******, and he did not ask for a refund and was not upset.

The Form 2210 miscalculated what his penalty should be (it overcalculated) from the money he took out tax-free as a distribution during the tax year. The client was still, provided a service and he was still responsible for the tax he owed, the office will not refund the tax prep fees.

The discrepancy resulted in money back to the client. Furthermore, we have suggested to this client for multiple years that they should pay quarterly payments to avoid the penalty each year, as they take a distribution each year. Each year, Mr. ******* tells the TP they need the money and don’t want to pay quarterly, they will pay the penalty.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
