so what kind of a rip off is this



They charge a huge fee to file taxes that you can do yourself online for 30 bucks (or free depending on income). If you take the standard deduction you can file your own taxes in 10 minutes . Chances are the person doing your taxes doesn't know the first thing about accounting either.

Hmm. It doesn't seem like a bad deal. I got $400 on an AMEX card and am good to go now. No fees no interest. Get another $900 when I bring my W2 and file. Normal $200-$230 fee due then. Refund pays the loan. No brainer to me.

Up to "$1300 express refund advance".

How many people getting this refund actually paid 1300 or more in taxes this past year?

I hear extreme leftists cry for a guaranteed income, yet stuff like this, obamacare, section8, CHIP, medicaid, EBT, and SNAP apparently don't already exceed this number. FFS, merika .

Why is that a bad deal?
You have to file. Why wait til late February to get some of your money back?
I don't understand.

The ridiculous fee they're going to charge you to file like many other posters in here have said.

A couple hundred isn't ridiculous. Boom. Done. I don't have time to learn all the crap about taxes, don't want to and I sure as hell sleep better not worrying about the irs taking my shite.

I tried that once. Got letters from the irs demanding 1000's back. Was a nightmare. Took years to clear up. Never again.

Plus online doesn't doesn't give me Christmas money.

I've used Turbotax every single year since I graduated from college and it goes perfectly and takes 20 minutes.

Everbody is broke, at a different level.

And when I go back an finish, I'll be able to pay some bills. Then some more when the rest of my refund comes in.

How poor and how many kids do I need to produce to get a fricking refund? I haven't had a refund since my third year out of college. I'm sick of giving poor people my money.
