Turbo Tax, for the past few years, had been as they promised "Free" for filing simple tax returns. However, this year, they have a very nice little "Bait & Switch" going on. You fill out al the information as usual, but at the end, there's a minimum $34.99 + tax fee. Imagine how many busy people say "Eh, it's just $34.99.. I'm too busy to hassle with it." and pay. I decided I would not pay; it's the principle of it. So, I decided to contact Turbo Tax's "Free Chat", their wait is horrific.. as if they were a government agency (really over 1.5 hours on the internet?), and their answer? "You need to file it out yourself for it to be free." Hmmm... I did. But, just to be sure, I deleted the return I had ready and started from scratch... tons of annyoing little commercials promoting themselves as oh-so-great popping up too often. Finally, the moment of truth after filing my simple 1040-EZ. Now it hould be free, right? AH! It wasn't... here's the $34.99 fee AGAIN. It's an obvious BAIT & SWITCH scam, which I won't partake. I'll do my taxes manually and wait for my return. I refuse to be bullied into a huge corporation's scam. TurboTax, wait for it on 60 Minutes and 20/20. Guaranteed.
