      Status:
      Answered
      On 06/15/21, I signed an agreement with RC Jones for tax/bookkeeping services beginning on 06/15/21. 06/16/21 contacted by ****** for basic business information and my account was transferred to *******. 06/30/21 contact with ******* via text 07/01/21 I received an invoice for $375 I reached out to ******* twice in the month of July left voicemails and finally spoke with her on 07/20/21. At this point, I still did not have access to my quickbooks and my account had not been reconciled and I had not received any of the tax services outlined in the agreement. I reached out to ***, he confirmed that nothing had been done with my account. He apologized several times about the lack of communication and told me he would get my account up to date. 7/22/21 ****** contacted me, she promptly reconciled my account and we spoke several times that week. 08/01/21 I received an invoice for $552, $177/personal taxes (was not informed of these charges) $375/business service 08/04/21 I received another invoice for $375. I contacted ****** for an explanation, she contacted ***. He told her it was for June premium. My services were to start 06/15/21- the retro premium was for an entire month of premium, I should have only been charged $187.50 for services 06/15- 06/30/21 08/05/21 emailed and requested service to be cancelled effective 08/01/21 08/06/21 my request to cancel was ignored and my account was reconciled- last account reconcile was done 07/27/21 Reasons: retro charge for June when I received no service and being over charged for June, the amendment being done to my personal taxes with out my approval or made aware the amendment would cost. I hired RCJ with the expectations outlined the agreement and expected complete transparency when it comes to any new charges and any retro charges. Attached email correspondence and service agreement My claim for $750 for June and August

      If I could give a negative number for this company, I would. The company filed our taxes late and did not notify us this was an issue until we received a letter from the Missouri Department of Revenue regarding a fiduciary tax notice of adjustment that was owed. In addition, the company charged us a $19.00 application extension fee which was never brought to our attention in advance. After multiple attempts over several months to get an answer and resolution the owner just kept saying he was out of town and would address it when he returned which never occurred. They also changed the fees for completing the taxes after giving us an initial quote. Overall, not trustworthy or ethical in how they do business based on my experience.

      RC Jones and Associates, Inc. Response

      04/05/2024

      I apologize for the negative experience Ms. K***** had with our firm. Managing client expectations during our busiest periods can be challenging. Ms. K***** dropped off her information at our Liberty office on 3/9/2023, which coincided with the peak tax season information exchange, where we typically handle  hundreds of returns per week. Upon drop-off, we inform every client that if we cannot process their data before the filing deadline, we will file an extension on their behalf to prevent late filing penalties. It seems that Ms. K***** was dissatisfied with the explanation that workload or volume caused the delay in preparing her returns.
      We prioritize return preparation based on the order they are received, we may occasionally adjust the order for special circumstances or if there's a significant balance due that could result in substantial penalties and interest. While it's unfortunate that Ms. K***** feels we are not trustworthy or ethical, we strive to be fair and reasonable in all our dealings.
      It's worth noting that it's unusual for Ms. K***** to file a complaint a year after the incident. We take feedback seriously and are committed to addressing any concerns promptly.
