Been using this since TaxCut for about 20 years. I've decided I'm moving on. I couldn't submit the day before or the day of Tax Day. Failed at the last step e-filing. I was charged 6 times for e-filing and still failed. I'm moving on to a competitor.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The processing snafu of April 15th is a deal break

I've used Kiplinger's/H&R Block for over 25 years. I've never experienced an issue like Monday, April 15th's transmission problems. The biggest problem was lack of transparency both on the initial error side and then on the credit card charge side and then on the resolution. It is so disappointing to see a great partner drop this big of a core piece of it's functionality.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Time consuming

Have always had a very positive exp with the Block. The only issue I have ever had was the night before the tax deadline when they lost their severer connection for about 20 hours. Couldn't efile a darn thing. On the afternoon of the 15th the server connection returned so I was good.
I have had good luck with H&RB software in the past, though more complex situations often need more explanations. This year when I tried to file my daughter's taxes the H&RB server seems to have been down. This problem persisted for from the evening through the next days morning until we had to leave for DC. This resulted in my having to take my laptop to DC, through two sets of security screenings, and all over DC where we were walking. I had already filed my taxes successfully at home and have checked status since we retuned without making changes, so the problem is definitely on H&RB's end. With the repeated attempts to file for my daughter, I now have extra charges still processing on my credit card account, and if they go through I have been overcharged so the issues are still ongoing many days later.

You refused my comment just before tax day.. I don't remember it exactly, but you refused to let me file a MA extension online & wouldn't give an explanation. WHY?
