My last attempt at efiling went real well right up to the efile step at which point the online service used demanded 17.00 for the priviledge. Ended up downloading, printing, and mailing it in.
That’s a petty thing to get upset about all things considered.
Hey if they advertise free efile then they damn well better deliver free efile
Yaknow that’s fair.
What were you filing just like basic W2’s or did you have a 1099 and a bunch of deductions?
Doesnt matter, mr.shill, dont do what you advertise you do, you are crooked. Failing to stipulate charges for anything beyond basics makes you a worse crook
I’m not shilling I’m asking for context. I agree with you, why you gotta be so combative?
Moi? Combative? Aux contraire, senior. I just believe in advertising truth, not the bait n switch they tried to foist on me. Even if the fee was a penny, it should have been laid out at the start to allow me, the consumer, the common decency of accepting it rather than having it demanded of me to proceed.
And yes i had a 1099R, and a 1099B to add to the mix but nothing was said by way of cost to add before or after. Possibly could be buried in their lessthanobvious TOS dunno didnt look
