~corbyink's review of TurboTax customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's TurboTax 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.
~corbyink: By far the worst customer service I have ever had. I was charged to file my state taxes on their mobile app which didnt even work and sat on the phone with three different people for over two hours before ever getting a response and they came up with filling a claim. Safe to say I will NEVER use this service again and the service charge at HR BLOCK is pocket change compared to the hoops I went through with TurboTax.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting TurboTax. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a TurboTax problem?
~corbyink: I'd give them a four 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?
~corbyink: I'd give them a one out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about TurboTax's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~corbyink: For that I would say four out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other TurboTax customers?
~corbyink: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for TurboTax to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~corbyink taken from his TurboTax customer service problem that occurred on November 18th, 2017.
