Tax Express - Swindled

They are the same as Tax Express of Harlem on 545 Lenox Ave.These guys will talk you into allowing them to make fake deductions so you get more refunds.

That way they can charge you $300-$$400 for the service. These guys are frauds! They are Florida based and will take your money and run. Scammed and conned to take money from unsuspecting trusting residents from one neighborhood.

then move to another neighborhood to scam and steal again. They are the same as Tax Express of Harlem. They are fly by night shops. Once they took your money, they don't care what happened to you because they won't be around.

I'd filed with them when they were Tax Express of Parkchester. I said WERE because after one tax season, they were no where to be found and left no forwarding info. Don't use them anywhere. You will get the same refund amount anywhere.

Deductions are standard and refunds are standard. I was audited because They tricked me into believing that deducting more for dry cleaning and uniforms and foods and lunches were allowed. It turned out not to be so. They charged me $400 for a 5 minute data entry into a standardized federal tax form!.

They were no where to be found when I needed help with straightening out my audit/. They did not leave a forwarding number?. I had to fight with the IRS:. The IRS told me that deductions are standard all across the board and if I had filed for myself using the free offer from the IRS website I would have yielded the same refund amount for FREE:.

The worst experience ever,. The biggest nightmare for me using these guys,. I should have stayed with my original guy/. On top of the nightmares, I was audited and fined for $3210.35.

All because they got me an illegal extra $978 in refunds.
You have been warned! Stay away! Not worth the audit.

Go elsewhere or stay with the local honest tax people. They are crooks. Crooks. Crooks.

Check it out if you don't believe me. You can google tax express, FL, TX. They are also Taxologist, Hialeah FL. All the same scamming tax preparers.

They are no tax experts.

They are experts in taking your money.Biggest frauds 38b61f5

Having a difficult time believing some of you had these bad experiences with Steve. He is a little arrogant, but who cares, he is thorough and responsive, but then again this for people who had bad experiences. Whenever I was there, most people were waiting in him to do their taxes. If you don't get a get a good return with him, if wasn't meant to be. Might as well just go to h and r block or do it yourself and get nothing. At least you are guaranteed not to have any problems. I'll keep going to Steve until I he proves otherwise.

How were you able to find out that they had all of these other locations but never able to contact anyone at any of these offices? Also, who did your return? Perhaps you should go and talk to that preparer about your return? If it were me I would definitely try to go and talk to the "same guys from Parkchester" if they caused me to owe the IRS $3200 bucks. Those guys in Harlem seem pretty understanding so a visit or phone call wouldn't be such a bad idea. Here is the phone number just in case you don't have it. (212) 690 - 7271
