This is why I always pirate TurboTax and deleted my Mint years ago.
Fuck intuit.
Oh and before someone asks me why I feel comfortable doing that security wise...I do it on an airgapped machine and print the return out and mail it in. Ezpz
- sseagull 5y agoAlso why I was disappointed when Intuit bought Credit Karma. I will never use Turbo Tax, just out of principle. I cannot support a company like that.
- micromacrofoot 5y agoCredit Karma was really disappointing for me... their tax service is quite good for simple filing.
- divbzero 5y agoI try to avoid QuickBooks and will avoid Mailchimp for the same reason.
- burkaman 5y agoFYI the DOJ wouldn't let Intuit buy the tax preparation part of Credit Karma, so that service is owned by Square now.
- sseagull 5y agoI didn’t know that. Sounds reasonable. I had never used Credit Karma’s tax service anyway, but good to know.
- footlose_3815 5y agoThis just reminded me to go back and delete my Mint account. The process wouldn't complete in Firefox, I had to use Edge.
- coldpie 5y agoI just do it by hand on paper. For folks with just some W-2s and maybe some light investing stuff (no, this isn't everyone, but it is a lot of people), it only takes an hour or two to do by hand and the instructions are actually pretty decent.
- PennRobotics 5y agoImagine the productivity boost if an automated system handled the W2 + light investing case for "a lot of people"
