Rated 1 out of 5 by from Charged for Services it said was Free The software said I needed to agree to ID protection because it was included in a $119 package to file my Federal Tax return. HOWEVER, on the page where I pay, the IC Protection was $44 ON TOP OF the $119 it said the service was included under. Furthermore, in the help, it says the ID Protection is added for FREE. Lastly, there is no way to remove the fee by this point. I would have had to scrap my whole return and restart. Shady business practice.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Fast, Beware fees Turbotax provides a rapid way to upload all my info and files my taxes, but needs to be more upfront about fees related to some of the services it provides. I was charged a $25 fee for E-filing taxes in my state -- ok, but I was also nearly charged an extra 40$ before I noticed that turbotax was charging even more to take this directly from my refund. I would prefer extra warnings about potential fees before purchasing the software.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Does the job, but very buggy The tax guidance itself is pretty good, especially the in-help guidance and line-by-line deductions. However, the software is very buggy (ran into payment errors, software crashing without saving, took a few attempts to import the in-progress online returns properly). Additionally, we ran into issues downloading this onto a second computer. This overall made the experience very frustrating. The online TT is honestly much more user-friendly and adequate for most people. I will probably revert to using the online version next year.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Everything fine...until the end. The taxes were fine. At the end when I tried to file, I jumped through all the ridiculous hoops...the account numbers, the dates, the drivers license, everything...and the software has a glitch and keeps saying it has an update so it can't file. There is no update. I tried several times, looking at the update tab, and it says everything is updated...but after all this, paying $110 to file, I can't file. So frustrating
