I wish you would refund my extra charge of $30. Reply Danielle was very patient in assisting Mr finding the error I had inputted. I have used you software for the past 13 years and it has worked well for me. Reply very good service #1 Reply I forgot my password yesterday and was having dicculty recovering it. When I called Turbo Tax support line, the customer support rep (Michelle) provided me excellent service, as she was very nice, patient, and knowledgeable. I totally appreciate the Turbo Tax support and like the software. Reply Great experience. Best in the SaaS space. Reply He went way out of his way to help me with my computer problem in getting to right page ! Extremely knowledgeable in his job & an excellent representative for TURBO TAX. Every Company needs people of his caliber to work for them! Reply I had problems with entering my information .Customer service rep Alexis was just great with helping out. I gave her a hard time but still she held it together . I appreciate her patience and kindness in the end we were able to resolve my problem. Reply I received a call back within the specified time. I understand that the deadline is two days from now; however, she was patient and friendly. I thank her very much for her assistance and the manner in which she represented TurboTax. Reply Not sure who the lady was I spoke to but she was a nerve saver!! Reply Kudos to the support team. I had an issue where the state kept rejecting my filing and could not remedy the issue in TT until support was able to find the right navigation to the area that was neatly hidden from finding. We screenshared and resolve the issue. Filed and accepted. Happy and can sleep now. Reply Very helpful and complete service app. It’s a breathe of fresh air knowing the people associated with this service are also very helpful and upbeat. Reply Agree..very responsive. Was open to ideas in terms of improvement to the software product and solutions provided. Reply I’ll leave a comment after we see if our issue gets resolved Reply Had an excellent customer service rep Monica. Thank you! Reply There site is easy to navigate. I found out that the step by step directions made it easy. Reply Love your tax software. Used it for over 10 years now. My issue is that I’m getting over $1500 back from state and I have to pay federal. I’ve never had to pay federal ever before. I know waiting is my fault but I thought that TurboTax would allow me to file an extension and help out. After calling a couple I found out that I can’t file an extension without purchasing the software first. There wasn’t a way to take the money from my state return so I can’t even file an extension unless I can get a hold of some money to get the software. Next year I’ll have to go to a live person to do my taxes. Reply Hi Tim, Thank you. You do not have to purchase the software to file an extension. You can use TurboTax Easy Extension for free https://turbotax.intuit.com/irs-tax-extensions/ Just remember that an extension to file is not an extension to pay so you will receive penalties on the amount you owe. You could go ahead and file and request an installment agreement with the IRS to pay your taxes owed. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis Reply I feel the “tax Hero” sweeps is unfair. I do not text, use or know how to use these hashtag things at all. If you expect everyone to be tech savy your very wrong. Reply Unfortunately I didn’t write down the lady’s name that helped me but she was more than AWESOME in every way. She is more than worthy of a “spot promotion” or a bonus for her outstanding effort. She went above and beyond to help me and never became frustrated with my questions. She was very cool under pressure and was a distinct pleasure to work with. This lady is a real TEAM player and is an excellent customer service representative for your company. She would also make an outstanding trainer for new personnel as well. I can’t say enough about her, hope she has great success in the future. Reply I’ve had great experiences with TurboTax formerly, but not this year. I’m not even sure the taxes were filed — the last I saw was both fed and state taxes were “pending.” Reply I spoke to Keontae for an extended period of time. She was extremely patient and researched my issue and answered all my questions and helped me with everything I needed. She went over and beyond and gave the best customer service I’ve received in a long time. Reply Online help was fantastic, knew exactly where to go to walk me through and find the appropriate places to enter some tough information that I could not figure out! Thank you Reply TURBOTAX MAKES IT MORE COMPLICATED & CONFUSING EVERY YEAR…., I paid for on-line this year but used CD’s prior….

I was a little disappointed I could not get a printout BY MAIL of claims submitted. I do not own a printer. The forms submitted were different from what I thought would be submitted but my refunds came through fine. Thank you. Reply After two calls to Intuit to resolve my difficulty downloading my 2016 state program, I was ready to abandon Turbo Tax after decades (back to Chipsoft days) as a customer. On the third try, “Nancy” very patiently and methodically ruled out every possible obstruction and came up with a creative solution which fully resolved the issue. She was personable throughout the long process. Intuit is lucky to have such a valuable associate on its team. Reply Your representative Hector called me back because your lines were busy. He helped me set up the 2016 Turbo Tax (I never had problems in prior years). He took his time to fix the problem, was very understanding, knowledgeable, caring, and a very good representative of your company. Reply I dont have your phone number nor the turbo tax app for contact. Need to talk to you TODAY so you can file for me. Reply Hi Marilyn, You can go online at TurboTax.com and start your return. If you have a question TurboTax SmartLook experts can guide you through your tax return and answer your questions. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis Reply VERY DISAPPOINTED IN TURBO TAX. There was no way to contact anyone and I had three different amounts due, including one refund, so it was not properly done. I must have input things in the wrong places. ALso it said FREE but I saw there are charges to contact anyone. Hi Marilyn, Sorry you couldn’t contact anyone. You can still connect with our SmartLook experts to get your questions answered and file your taxes. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis I left my reply in my initial response in this survey, I hope it went through. Incredible experience with my representative who held a sense of empathy. Reply I will continue to use TurboTax’s because I know that once I am in a bind I can call up and get it resolved with a live person. Keep doing it!! Reply Fast and easy service to use. Representative i spoke with was very informative. Nice and patient with me and my concerns. Reply The two agents I contacted in the past two days were both courteous, patient, sympathetic, and resolved to solve the problem for me. Couldn’t have wished for more from them. Reply We bad a problem that our rep had never seen. She tried five different ways to fix it and she did. We have used Tubo Tax for years and will continue to do so. It only took a few minutes for them to return our call. Reply My product support person was very helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and cordial. Reply Sunshine was awesome, she was helping me out for a long time till I filed my tax, she is so patient, caring and passionate. I really appreciate her. Thank you, Sunshine you’re a wonderful person .You are the one that this world needs many of them Reply I had an issue with one page while doing my taxes so I called turbo tax support and not only was she friendly and kind, but she was so patient with me! Thank you again turbo tax for your dedication, not only will I be using this service again but will tell everyone about it!! Reply Even a pro like me (who’s been using Turbo Tax for over 12 years) has questions or gets snagged up and has to call for help :>) This year was definitely the best phone customer service yet! The video interfacing and the screen share was awesome. I love being able to see the person who is helping me! Great innovation! Reply THANK YOU ANGELA!! Reply Thank you to Shannon for her help. I had a very strange problem which apparently only happens in my state. She was incredibly patient and creative in helping me solve the issue! I so appreciated her professional and personal style in customer service. Reply The 2016 program seemed a little problematic. But TT staff are very helpful and courteous in resolving my issues. Reply Brian was wonderful He helped me with a smile and very friendly. He stuck with me until the end Thank you Brian Reply Amazing service! Reply If you get Vanita on the phone, consider yourself lucky. Out of the approx 5 people I spoke with, she was the only person who resolved my problem (a shipping problem), in less than 10 minutes. All the others I spoke with told me that they handled it, but never did. Reply I had an issue with a State return and called a representative. Your representative was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and we resolved the issue fairly quickly. Great phone service!! Reply I am using a Mac pro and your rep wasn’t familiar with apple products, she must have read up about them called me back and resolved my problems in no time. I could not be happier with your service. I am 81 years old and not that computer literate but your help was amazing she walked me through all my problems. I would recommend TurboTax to everyone. Reply I called Turbotax for help with a complicated issue with my return this year. I was told that I could leave my number and they would call. It took a while as we are nearing the end of tax season, but it was a real convenience to not have to wait on hold. The person who assisted me was great. Quickly resolved my issue, was pleasant and knowledgeable, gave me great peace of mind.

VERY DISAPPOINTED IN TURBO TAX. There was no way to contact anyone and I had three different amounts due, including one refund, so it was not properly done. I must have input things in the wrong places. ALso it said FREE but I saw there are charges to contact anyone.
Hi Marilyn, Sorry you couldn’t contact anyone. You can still connect with our SmartLook experts to get your questions answered and file your taxes. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis
I left my reply in my initial response in this survey, I hope it went through. Incredible experience with my representative who held a sense of empathy. Reply
I will continue to use TurboTax’s because I know that once I am in a bind I can call up and get it resolved with a live person. Keep doing it!! Reply
Fast and easy service to use. Representative i spoke with was very informative. Nice and patient with me and my concerns. Reply
The two agents I contacted in the past two days were both courteous, patient, sympathetic, and resolved to solve the problem for me. Couldn’t have wished for more from them. Reply
We bad a problem that our rep had never seen. She tried five different ways to fix it and she did. We have used Tubo Tax for years and will continue to do so. It only took a few minutes for them to return our call. Reply
Sunshine was awesome, she was helping me out for a long time till I filed my tax, she is so patient, caring and passionate. I really appreciate her. Thank you, Sunshine you’re a wonderful person .You are the one that this world needs many of them Reply
I had an issue with one page while doing my taxes so I called turbo tax support and not only was she friendly and kind, but she was so patient with me! Thank you again turbo tax for your dedication, not only will I be using this service again but will tell everyone about it!! Reply
Even a pro like me (who’s been using Turbo Tax for over 12 years) has questions or gets snagged up and has to call for help :>) This year was definitely the best phone customer service yet! The video interfacing and the screen share was awesome. I love being able to see the person who is helping me! Great innovation! Reply
Thank you to Shannon for her help. I had a very strange problem which apparently only happens in my state. She was incredibly patient and creative in helping me solve the issue! I so appreciated her professional and personal style in customer service. Reply
The 2016 program seemed a little problematic. But TT staff are very helpful and courteous in resolving my issues. Reply
Brian was wonderful He helped me with a smile and very friendly. He stuck with me until the end Thank you Brian Reply
If you get Vanita on the phone, consider yourself lucky. Out of the approx 5 people I spoke with, she was the only person who resolved my problem (a shipping problem), in less than 10 minutes. All the others I spoke with told me that they handled it, but never did. Reply
I had an issue with a State return and called a representative. Your representative was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and we resolved the issue fairly quickly. Great phone service!! Reply
I am using a Mac pro and your rep wasn’t familiar with apple products, she must have read up about them called me back and resolved my problems in no time. I could not be happier with your service. I am 81 years old and not that computer literate but your help was amazing she walked me through all my problems. I would recommend TurboTax to everyone. Reply
I called Turbotax for help with a complicated issue with my return this year. I was told that I could leave my number and they would call. It took a while as we are nearing the end of tax season, but it was a real convenience to not have to wait on hold. The person who assisted me was great. Quickly resolved my issue, was pleasant and knowledgeable, gave me great peace of mind. Reply
