~cin'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.
~cin: The representative focused on something else rather than the specific problem and then transferred me to a tax specialist, assuring me that I would not have to wait long. the queue announcement said the wait time was another ** minutes. I hung up and ended up spending another hour finding the problem myself. The turbo tax program had doubled my taxable income for the state tax.
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?
~cin: I'd give them a three 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?
~cin: I'd give them a four out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about TurboTax's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~cin: For that I would say one out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other TurboTax customers?
~cin: 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.
