E-filing a joke
I paid for TurboTax and e-filed my return on the 27th of January and was promised a date of February 6th when my return would be direct deposited into my bank account. After calling the IRS on the 11th because I still had not received my return I was told that the bank that the return goes through, the Santa Barbara Banking and Trust had submitted my return too late and the IRS had placed a hold on it til the 18th. It is now the 18th of February and I still have NOT received my return. I called and was informed that an error had taken place sometime from my e-filing it and the bank holding it for too long. GREAT! Now I get to wait an additional 2 to 6 WEEKS for my return to be processed and deposited into my bank account. E-filing is a joke and TurboTax is just as bad. 8 to 14 days, yeah right. I'm on my 22nd day and I get to wait up to 6 MORE WEEKS! And the only information that I can readily find on my return is the acceptance date and time stamp on the 27th after it was e-filed through TurboTax. This step by step, easy process that they claim is a joke because I have never had so much trouble just trying to get my return deposited into my bank account! Mailing it in wouldn't have taken this long!

What a nightmare!
I used turbo tax online to do my taxes myself. What a nightmare. Filing for federal was free, and state taxes is a little over $30. I lived and worked in New York and Mass that year and so it cost over $60 to do it myself. Plus I accidentally clicked "deduction maximizer" which charged me an extra $10. Ok. That was my fault. So total was $76. I dont own property, im single, no kids, blah blah just had a couple of W2 forms to file.
An error came up at the end saying I could not file my MA state return electronically because in MA if you are a part year resident you have to mail in your forms. No big deal. Right? It told me to print out and follow the directions but the directions told me I e-filed and no further action was needed. Checking on the status, however, my MA return did not appear. I tried it a million different ways with the same result. What the *!@^?
So I contacted customer service. I told them I can not efile with my MA return I just needed to know what to do. After and hour of bullshit of these people who had NO idea what was going on, asking pointless questions and going in circles, I realized that there must have been some weird malfunction on their site that caused it to print out saying I had efiled. They kept making me check how the status was and transfered me around and no results. Said they could do nothing for me. I paid $76 and they can't do anything!!!
I ended up calling some revenue department or something in MA and a guy was like, here's an address just send x y and z and your all set. Took me 5 min to get my damn answer.
I will NEVER use turbo tax online again. Not only does it not work properly, customer service SUCKS.
