~Persilja's review of The IRS customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's The IRS customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Persilja: The 'resolution' to my question was to transfer me to an automated answering machine telling me that irs no longer offer live support for the area of the tax law that causes me problems, and that I should research the answer on irs.gov instead, goodbye! *click****Great, scouring that site is what I've done over the last week or two, without finding the answer I need.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting The IRS. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a The IRS problem?
~Persilja: I'd give them a one out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
~Persilja: I'd give them a four out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about The IRS's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~Persilja: For that I would say five out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other The IRS customers?
~Persilja: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for The IRS to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~Persilja taken from his The IRS customer service problem that occurred on November 25th, 2017.
