I purchased the Piece of Mind guarantee at HR block on April 14, 2007 after working with HR block tax professional for several months. I was convinced to do the Easy Pay program to pay off my federal taxes, which was a loan through HSBC. I overpaid my state taxes by over 1000, and the IRS is taking money from my account, as well as HSBC bank for my federal taxes. I am being double charged for my federal taxes. I am unable to get help from ANYONE at HR block, at their offices, their phone number, or their online help. No one at HSBC can help me either. I feel like I've been scammed.

I filed my taxes with hr block in 2004 and i was told that my information would be confidential and i also signed. so they gave me coupons to give people and i would recieved 10 dollars. so i gave one away to a friend of mine and i wish i didnt. All of my information which included my ssn my daughters ssn the amount i recieved and was stapled to her copys she recieved from them.

When she brought it to me i was shocked i didnt know if my info.. was suppose to be in there or not. it was not worth 10 dollars. what if she was a stanger.

in result of this now im not sure if my info.. is in someone else file.

On February,19,2007 we went to H&R BLOCK to get help to file our taxes. 10 days later we get call from them tell us our check ready but the check amount was wrong so my husband did not take the check. My husband went back again to find out what happened but the lady did not explain to my husband, she just do is call amended and it was not even right the next day. We think she swapped our 1040 and 540 she sign it and dated march,1,2007 when we ask her about the original copies of our 1040 and 540 dated and sign on febraury,19,2007 she said what you talking about she had no idea. The IRS not have our 1040 original signed and dated.

My husband & I are separated and wants me to go sign the tax returns that he filled under married joint when he should have filled under married separated. When I called H& R Block to have it changed to married separated and to find out how much the returned was. The sales representative rudely answered saying that she couldn’t give me any information unless I came in and sign the papers and that she would not give any information until after I signed the tax returns. I do not want to be signing something that I am not able to know what is on the form.

On Feb 17, my wife and I filed our taxes through H&R Block. We usually file them through the army for free but I’m on orders for deployment to Iraq very soon so I needed to receive the refund as soon as possible to purchase things needed. We decided to go with the 1-2 Refund Anticipation Loan with the emerald debit card. After waiting 5 days, we still had no refund on our card so I called H&R Block. They told me that my loan was denied and gave me the number to the bank they had set it up with. After calling the bank, they told me that my loan was denied for unknown reasons. I’m out the extra fees for the 1-2 loan and still waiting on my refund 11 days later, unable to purchase equipment needed for Iraq.
