Works OK, but MANY frustrations

Appears to work OK. E-filed Fed and State OK. BUT... It obnoxiously prompts to up-sell and profit gouge at every opportunity. Display will not adapt to Windows 10 Recommended screen resolution. Have to constantly switch back and forth when opening product. Most screens will NOT allow COPY (CTL-C) function. Extremely frustrating. I've used tax prep software every year since available under DOS. This is my worst experience.
I have used HRB for years and I guess I was a little complacent. Got to the end of my return and the program threw up an alert that I had not addressed my state sales tax. Went back, plugged in the numbers and just like that another $288 in my return :)
I user another major software for years until a couple years ago when they left some forms off the version I used. I started using H&R Block software at that time and have never gone back.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Have used H&RBlock/TaxCut for years now and find it generally quite satisfactory. The option to pay the IRS by credit card is a bit offensive, not informing the user of the considerable H&RBlock fee until after it has been chosen and then not reminding the user that once the 1040 is filed the choice of payment option cannot be changed. I missed that obscure detail and thus am on tenterhooks what may happen next when they get my check.
I hate it! My claim keeps getting rejected by the IRS! My AGI was put in by BLock and its being rejected. Why on earth would you keep letting this happen?
Have been using your software for years. You can tell it has been designed by the leading tax experts. Logical process and easy e-file. I organize my yearly tax information to match the flow of the software.
