Verified ReviewerCrap people that sent us to finishline
I haven't heard them anything from them
No, I will deal with the IRS alone
My husband heard their ad on the radio and they shoved us off to finishline cause we didn't meet their debt bracket. Finishline screwed up our IRS audit and kept our 1900.
Preferred solution: Apology
User's recommendation: Avoid it's a scam
Processed payment with no resolution within 15 days
- - Johnston spoke Mar 1, 2024.
- - Payment set up Mar 16; no contract.
- - Mar 29 appointment text; refund denied Apr 1.
- - Debt $9,000; min $10,000.
Spoke with Mr. Johnston on March 1,2024.
He sat up payment on the 16th of March. Called on the 21s. He stated it can take up to 10 days. I never signed any contract or paperwork or given any personal information.
On March 29th received a text for appointment I never scheduled. On the April 1st called to get a refund and was told the company could not. Also my debt is $9000 so why did he sign me up when the minimum is 10,000. Is this a scam?
Mr. J Premysler needs to be fired!
Resolved
The representative was friendly and empathetic and she saved our relationship with Optima. We are very grateful to her.

Verified ReviewerNo stars at all.
After talking with my IRS agent he informed me that optima tax relief never even contacted him and because he had not heard from them, he went ahead and submitted my case for filing. This has screwed me royally and optima tax relief never had any intention of providing me with their service.
They only intended on stealing my money. There are over 600 reports of the same problem with optima tax relief.I am now seeking a full refund as they did not do anything at all on my behalf.
Optima tax relief told me that there were2 separate services with separate contracts. They said I had 15 days to change my mind.
After finding out that they would not do the services that I needed, I changed my mind and asked for my money back.
Optima tax relief then told me that the 15 days started a month or so prior to which it took them that long to get back to me.
They then said because my 15 days ran out a month ago that they could keep my money.
They stole $ 3300. From me and did not provide any service at all on the new contract.
Optima tax relief absolutely refuses to deal in good faith with their customers l, and are therefore a crime ridden business with unethical business practices.
Optima tax relief has a contract that is designed to entrap a customer and scam them out of their money.
User's recommendation: DO NOT USE OPTIMA TAX RELIEF.

Verified ReviewerOptima isn't even worth One Star
I could explain the whole story; however, concisely, I would advise anyone who avoid Optima Tax Relief services. It is a complete waste of time and money.
They do nothing but take your money and continue to LIE about working on your behalf.
When you cancel their service, they still want to fight to keep your money, even if they have caused you money and none nothing at all. I'm sure that has to be a legitimate company out there; but I can assure that Optima is not one.
- Do not follow through with deadlines
- Do not help at all
- Tell you to ignore the irs
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Stay away from Optima

Verified ReviewerOptimal tax has only one man to do all the work, eg I called to speak with Andrea Bryant, his voice-mail picked up, I called customer service Andrea voice-mail picked up, I called anything else,Andrea
My complaint is that I already authorized Andrea Bryant to withdraw 295 dollars from my account on the 23rd of this month, for investigation on my tax problems with IRS,I called to cancel the transaction but Andrea Bryant is not answering, I drew my conclusion that Andrea Bryant does not work for Optimal tax, and I have gone back to my previous consultant honest tax, which Andrea Bryant said he has never heard about them.
Preferred solution: To cancel the withdrawal for 23rd of this month in the amount of 295 dollars.
User's recommendation: No for now

Verified ReviewerYour ads on TV
I recently saw an ad that had testimonials from customers who lambasted their experiences with the IRS. I realize you are trying to sell your service, but in today's atmosphere, with even members of Congress presenting the picture of IRS agents coming to small businesses with loaded assault weapons, your choice of comments just adds fuel to the fire. There must be some other way to attract customers than to have reports of the worst experiences with officers from a government agency.
Preferred solution: nothing
User's recommendation: no comment against the performance of the company

Verified ReviewerFRAUDULENT COMPANY OPTIMA TAX RELIEF
OPTIMA TAX RELIEF CHARGED CLOSE TO 10,000 DOLLARS AND PROVIDED ME AN UNLICENSED BOOK KEEPER WHO CLAIMED TO BE A TAX PROFESSIONAL TO RESOLVE MY TAX MATTERS. THE COMPANY IS FRAUDULENT, WILL NOT RETURN MONEY BACK.
THE CASE MANAGER/FRAUDULENT TAX PREPARER WAS NOT LICENSED. OPTIMA WOULD NOT RETURN MY CALLS OR RESPOND TO ANY REQUESTS TO GET A LEGITIMATE PROFESSIONAL.
THEY HAVE AN AMAZING SOUNDING SALES ASSOCIATE WHO WILL OVERPROMISE BUT THEN THE REAL SERVICES WOULD NEVER BE PROVIDED AS PROMISED. BEWARE THIS COMPANY.
- Took 7500 bucks and negotiated nothing with the irs
- Misrepresented services
- Communication issues
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: DO NOT FALL FOR THIS TRAP
