H&R Block: Is it Worth it to pay a Professional?

by Bryan_Carey Bryan_Carey is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Personal Finance, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Aug 03 '04
Pros: Tax knowledge; They can find additional write- offs you never knew existed
Cons: The fees; Not practical for those with simple returns and small refunds
When tax season hits in the early part of the year, many people procrastinate until the last minute to complete their tax returns. Some pull out the forms, start the coffee maker, and stay up all night on the final day before the deadline hits. Other ...

Hijacking Refunds

by Bruguru Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Jan 29 '05
Pros: Professional tax assistance, convenient locations, various services.
Cons: Outrageous fees.
Before we go any further, I would like to offer one caveat: Those of you with complex tax situations might find the services of H & R Block useful. That is, if you don’t already have an accountant. H & R Block has been around for quite ...

I will never use H&R Block again

by bops_mom Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, May 24 '01
Pros: we got our refund back quickly
Cons: rude, incompetent help, very costly
Until this year, I'd done my family's taxes myself. It took me next to no time to do them and until last year I'd never made a mistake.

After last year's mistake (we ended up getting $200 more back than I'd figured) and the fact that this year...

Getting the Maximum refund

by cracker24 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 19 '04
Pros: efficient, got money back quickly, no audits, knowledgeable staff
Cons: pricing may be a bit high for more complicated returns
H & R Block is known throughout the country for tax preparation and is now beginning to branch out into investing and other things. Knowing this, I decided to take my taxes into a local office when my return got rather complicated. Starting fees for a ...

The Wal-Mart of tax preparation

by HawgWyld Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Feb 02 '02
Pros: Great if you want a quick refund and have a simple return
Cons: Not for complicated taxes; feel like you're on a conveyor belt
H&R Block, truly, is the Wal-Mart of tax preparation. Why? The firm offers very generalized service and pushes sheer volume over customer service. And, the place has a reputation for appealing to lower income and working folks (that's not a slight -- I...

H&R Block 2008, A Gamble for a Competent Professional or a Block Head

by popsrocks Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Apr 01 '08
Pros: A good tax-return-specialist that can guide and help find deductions without putting red-flags.
Cons: Some are better than others.
H&R Block is a tax return service. It also delves in mortgages, investments and more. I have never used them for anything more than tax returns and up until this year have used them for years. I am in a partnership so I have an accountant take care of ...

FEES GONE WILD!

by 42ENGLISH Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Feb 14 '07
Pros: Hmmmm...nice folders.
Cons: Outrageous fees, inept employees.
I have been tortured this year when processing my tax return. I have been going to H & R Block for the last five years and understandably I wanted to save on their charges by filing my return myself on-line. However, after going to three ...

Cons: It's taxes, man...
I have used H&R Block to file my taxes for the past two years, and quite frankly, my experience has been a positive one. My history of tax filing has included using my father's accountant for the time I spent in the Parent's nest, and then laboring...

An Insider's Epinion on H&R Block

by amykhar Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 03 '00
Pros: fast service, they will back you up in an audit
Cons: You could do it yourself with a home computer
Financial information should not come from just anyone. Although anyone who can read a book or watch a movie can express an opinion, I feel that a review of a financial service requires a little more knowledge and expertise. Therefore, before you...

Pros: Nothing to brag about
Cons: unorganized, poor service
I would like to start by saying this is the first year my husband and I had our taxes prepared at H & R Block and were totally disappointed. We have always had our taxes done with them over the last six years and never had any problems.

Pros: Fast, friendly, easy, and they know what they're doing!
Cons: Might be a bit expensive
We went to H&R Block yesterday to have 3 years’ worth of taxes filed. Actually, there were 3 years’ worth for my husband, and 2 years’ worth for me. After this experience I think they have our business for the rest of our lives!

H&R Block, a Defense of and a rebuttal to certain Fallacies found in the other, negative reviews.

by mattjoe Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jan 14 '00
Pros: Service, 100% satisfaction guarantee
Cons: You have to pay taxes.
I believe I am more qualified to rate H&R Block than anyone who has written a review on here. I will start by letting you know upfront that this is a biased opinion. I would not even review H & R Block if it were not for the negative reviews on...
