Had an issue with a portion of the return. Worked with Tamika and she contacted her resources. Between the two of them they took quite a long time to assist me and reach a conclusion that I believe to be correct. Was quite pleased with the effort they put forth to reach a resolution.
A Disappointing Experience-Stay Away from RIPOFFS!

As a long-time user of tax software, I had high hopes for TurboTax. Unfortunately, my recent experience has been far from satisfactory. Despite its reputation as a reliable and user-friendly service, I found several aspects that left me feeling frustrated and let down.
Firstly, the premium service is advertised as offering additional benefits and support. However, it feels more like a money grab than a value-added feature. Instead of providing clear and comprehensive assistance, it often prompts you to pay extra to get the help you need. This is incredibly frustrating, especially when you're already paying for a premium service.
Secondly, the interface, while generally easy to navigate, occasionally feels overly complex and clunky. There were multiple instances where I had to go through several layers of menus to find what I needed. This detracted from the overall user experience.
It always felt as if they were more interested in upselling additional services than actually filing taxes.
This was the most difficult TT I have used in 20 years, not including dial up. I know taxes are more complicated over the years, but TT has me spoiled/
1. you make no provision for sole proprietor-LLC business retune filed as personal return, and as such you create much confusion at the outset as to which turbotax product to choose. 2. Your "Return to where I left off" option with each log in never returns to where I let off and instead endlessly revisits basic input information. Quit wasting my time. 3. Your new required input for RMD amount with 1099-R entry is a waste of my timr and resources. You are the tax experts, you figure out the RMD for each 1099. 4, After decades of turbotax use, I'm ready to sample the competition. 5. You fail to provide an indication of what services/protection are offered for what cost until the very end of the filing process. PROVIDE COST TRANSPARENCY FROM THE BEGINNING.
