Tricky interface tries to upsell you

Tricky options at the beginning of the process. They try to force you to use their "expert-assisted" option which costs additional money, when all I needed was the self completed option. I had to reset my return and start over to use the correct option because they don't allow you to change during the process. My returns are very similar year to year so I don't need the upsells.
Product itself is fine. However, the refusal to disclose fees ahead of time, constant upsell/ nickel and dime, fake "required data sharing" agreement, and general smarminess of Turbotax is off-putting. I thought the live tax guy were terrible. Turbotax is worse.
PS: Why do I need to sign an indemnification and limitation of liability to post a review? Nuts...
The interface is always easy and quick! Wicked simple to import all documents, regardless of whether they are electronic or paper. A few hours and everything is wrapped up with a bow on top! Furthermore, should I need an assist, I just have to ask!
