    Pending Government Action:
    Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
    FTC Complaint - H&R Block

    The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven.

    On February 23, 2024, the Federal Trade Commission issued an administrative complaint against tax preparation company H&R Block. The complaint alleges H&R Block deletes consumers’ tax data and requires them to contact customer service when they downgrade to more affordable online products. It also alleges that H&R Block marketed their products as “free” when they were not free for many consumers, costing consumers time and money. This matter is pending.

      Complaint Type:
      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      I have been trying to resolve an issue with the transparent pricing guarantee for 2 weeks without any headway. The was quoted $165 for tax professional services. After working with the tax pro for about a week to complete my return, the agent told me how much I owed. I asked to confirm that my fee for the tax pro was $165 at which time they told me it was actually $280. I asked the tax professional who said they had no control over the pricing, that it was H&R Block. So I called customer service. They told me they would investigate and contact me in 3-5 business days. On business day 6, I called back and they said they would escalate it and I would hear back in 3 business days. Today was business day 4. They said that it was still under review. Since it is 3 business days until taxes are due, I will likely have to pay the amount that violates their upfront, transparent pricing. They list a guarantee that this wouldn't happen, but now that it has there seems to be no recourse to resolve the issue. I have been treated poorly by one of my service reps, treating me like an idiot, etc. I am frustrated that they list a guarantee and it means nothing. I am more frustrated that they do not communicate with me and seem to be trying to run out the clock so I have to pay.

      The worst tax filing experience in 45 years. I never spent so much time to pay someone to do my taxes. Communication was non-existent regardless if it was calling the 800 number, the local office or in-person visits to 2 different locations to ask questions. In fairness to the local staff, it seems it's a corporate greed issue, how much they can charge by providing the least amount of qualified employees and customer service.
