"RUN AWAY"

RUN AWAY. Do NOT walk. RUN!!! There is nothing “honest” about this organization. The company charged my mother almost $30k to resolve federal and state back filings. They have resolved NOTHING.
It has been 2 years of hell trying to get assistance from them. If there ever was a need to sue an organization for misrepresentation and malpractice it is this one!

"Scammers!!!"

This company has taking thousands of dollars and have not filed a thing. Everytime I called, I got the run around. They should be arrested!

"Nothing 'Honest' about this company"

Nothing but a run around with this company. They are rude and condescending. I've paid their fees in full. Provided all requested information. They were to file my 2021 and 2022 tax returns. The returns are very simplistic. My understanding was they would file the two years then work with IRS to help reduce my over all tax liability for prior years which I have been paying on for several years. They finally sent the returns to me to be reviewed. FY2022 return is not even close. Where they got the $$$$ are a mystery. Addressed this with them in December 2023.
Gave them ample time to respond but guess what crickets. Called and sat on the phone for over an hour before get to talk to another one of their 'handlers' only to be told they'd now need another $5-7k to make it all go away. They did nothing for the $2,500 I paid so they are out of their minds to think I'd give them a penny more.
Don't do it. Just don't unless you enjoy giving away your hard earned money.

"They are not a company"

They are not a company, they are a bunch of scammers. They do nothing but lie and take your money. They got me for $30,000. I have been fighting them to get it back, or even just paperwork I requested. Once they have your money.. you will never hear from them again. Then you get garnished, which is the real kick in the nuts. So you pay them, then loose your whole check to something you thought was paid. It’s so beyond ridiculous! It’s truly a living nightmare dealing with these people. They should be put in prison! Get a taste of the pain they put every single person through. I mean look at the reviews. It’s not just me, it’s every single person who deals with them. Then “arbitration” will “get involved “ 😂. Thats a joke. They tell you to go back and deal with the ass holes who don’t return your calls, emails, texts. It’s a giant scam circle. Nothing about this company is legit. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! They will scam you

"NOT SO HONEST TAX I initially paid Honest Tax $4800…"

I initially paid Honest Tax $4800 through a third party company in 2021. $130 per month. I owed taxes and penalties from withdrawing from my 401k in 2018 so I needed their help. For two years the IRS took my refund. In 2023, Honest Tax told me if I paid another $7500, my debt to the government would be taken care of. So now I am making another payment of $229 per month to another third party company. I thought everything was taken care of until I filed my taxes for 2023 and the IRS took my refund again! Now no one will call me back. No one will email me back. It’s 2024 and I’m no farther ahead than I was in 2021!! Just more in debt and the IRS still says I owe and are threatening me with a lien or levy! I am furious and I feel utterly hopeless. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY!!!!!

"I would give them negative stars if I…"

I would give them negative stars if I could. They promised to handle my taxes and the supposed money I owed and I never heard from them or any updates since I made payments, the state threatened to put a lien on my account and checks over six months ago, I communicated, sent them copies of the letters I received, and my checks are being garnished as of 3 weeks ago. They are now claiming that the state is separate and are attempting to have me sign a new contract with them when this could have all been done and communicated before the lien 6 months ago. This company is disgusting and I am not sure they know what they are doing, I am STILL chasing their "state rep." Down by calling every day when they have been promising to call me back! Save your money and hire somebody else, they are not good at what they do, you are better off using the money they charge to just pay the IRS.

"Honest Tax is a SCAM"

Honest Tax took $ 3500 of my money to file a power of attorney which was never filed per the IRS. They also used this money to investigate my case. They then took another 12,000 of my money at 24% interest and said this would settle my IRS liability. None of this money has been paid to the IRS in fact I learned a 3rd party can not pay your taxes. So all total they have 15,500 + interest of my money and have done NOTHING to resolve anything! I have called and emailed daily. Jay Patrick, Mike Rivers, and spoke to Jessica yesterday who said my 2018 tax liability was holding up the process. I do not owe anything for 2018, I have the IRS transcript.

"I AM A SEVENTY-SIX YEAR OLD RETIREE WHO…"

I AM A SEVENTY-SIX YEAR OLD RETIREE WHO UNFORTUNATELYTRUSTED HONEST TAX TO HELP ME WITH MY 2021 FEDERAL TAXES. IN 2021 I HAD GONE TO H & R BLOCK WHO ASSESSED MY 2021FEDERAL TAXES AT $8900. I COULDN'T PAY THIS BILL BECAUSE IN 2020 AND 2021 I WAS HOSPITALIZED SEVERAL TIMES AND HAD MOUNTING MEDICAL BILLS. MIKE RIVERS, AN HONEST TAX REPRESENTATIVE, ASSURED ME HONEST TAX COULD HELP ME SO I TRUSTED HIM AND PAID $3400 FOR THEIR SERVICES. THEY CONTINUALLY ASSURED ME THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY THE $8900 BILL. WHEN I FILED MY THIS YEAR'S TAXES WITH H & R BLOCK, I WAS THAT, IN FACT, I HAD TO PAY THE $8900 BILL TO THE IRS. IF HONEST TAX HAD BEEN HONEST, THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD ME TO WORK WITH THE IRS AND SET UP A PAYMENT PLAN WITH THEM TO PAY MY TAX DEBT. THAT WOULD HAVE SAVED ME $3400. DON'T TRUST HONEST TAX; THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR OWN SELFISH INTERESTS!!!
