Customer Reviews of TurboTax Deluxe 2004 [Old Version]

DO NOT BUY THIS, TRUST ME!
Turbo Tax really is not a very good product. You are just better off paying someone to do your taxes or if you have a really simple one, just do it yourself. Also, there are so many places online that are free. The deluxe version is complete BS, it doesn't give you anything extra, you still have to download your files just like with the cheaper versions. The customer service for this company is TERRIBLE. I was charged three times on my debit card for e-filing. It took me three different phones calls, during my work hours, and being on hold for 20-30 minutes to get it straight. (All this while talking to a rude person who barely understands me and I can barely understand him). Plus, the extra $60 they had charged me erroneously caused other transactions to bounce and I was charged insufficient funds charges from my bank. That was another phone call during my lunch to fix something.

Pleasant Surprise - Efiling is Free!
I've used TurboTax for some time and always wondered about the prices I was paying. As I sat down and calculated the total, though, I realized I had forgotten the value of Efile. With this product, I do pay for efile up front -- but then get my money back with the rebate. It's worth it-not really as expensive as it seems at first evaluation!

Worked just fine for me after January
I've read several reviews that state TurboTax doesn't: <
>-allow state filing or downloads on Macs <
>-update well <
>-automatically import from participating financial institutions <
>-etc. <
> <
>However, I never had any of these problems when downloading the state app., updating, importing from my major finanicial institution and major employer. Just thought I'd note a counter view to balance the negative reviews somewhat. It's possible that I fared better bec. I was running the OS 9 install option instead of the os X install (but that usually isn't the case). <

>In '04 Turbotax seems to have gotten a facelift/interaction design change, and that alone caused me trouble. It was harder to use, but then I was used to the previous model and had learned it pretty well. Still mostly the same (e.g., you can view by Forms or by Steps/Q&A mode), but it seems to have been made more Web-like in its navigation style than before, which I don't really consider a useful improvement in a non-web application. <

>Still, it's one of the easiest to use pieces of software out there, very easy to move around in and figure out what to do next, with tips where and when you need them. Lots of supporting information. <

>Not sure if Intuit is messing with its Mac customers, but my sense is they don't finish building this software until at least December of the tax year in question.
