Date of Initial Contact with the Business: March 2021
I must emphasize that I am a 70-year-old senior citizen on a fixed income, and I have had the misfortune of contracting COVID-19 twice. My health and well-being are a significant concern, and dealing with this dispute has added to the stress and uncertainty during these challenging times.
I engaged Washington Tax Resolution Services to assist me with resolving tax issues with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Regrettably, my experience with this company has been marked by several concerns:
1. Unfulfilled Promises: Washington Tax Resolution Services made several promises regarding their ability to reduce my tax liabilities and provide timely, professional service. However, they have failed to meet these commitments.
2. Lack of Transparency: I have encountered a lack of transparency in their service delivery. They have not adequately explained the progress of my case, making it difficult to understand the status of my tax resolution.
3. Poor Communication: Communication from Washington Tax Resolution Services was inconsistent, with delayed responses to my inquiries and requests for updates on my case. I don't have any attachments because they never sent me anything,
4. Excessive Fees: The fees charged by the company was excessive. They charged me $6750.00. They didn’t provide value commensurate with their fees.
5. Highly Unethical: They list a lot of dates and times of activities that they said that they did for me that did not happen. They need to provide documentations to prove that they did the things listed in the answer to the dispute. PLEASE POST THIS so that others can read it.
These guys took $2,000 of my money and promised to do all the work to fix my IRS Tax Problem. Then, they sent me a filing form and asked me to fill it out for them.
Basically, they expected me to do everything myself. They refused to refund my money. I never got a dime worth of genuine service from them. Basically, they want to charge $2,000 to file some basic paperwork. It appears they're lazy and entitled to making a ton of money for little work.
By the way, Jay Freeborne and Matthew Woare are both registered Democrats. They support higher taxes on hardworking Americans. Why? Because it causes Tax Problems that they can profit from.
After consulting with Mr. Freeborne via telephone, I was advised that Washington Tax Services would be able to assist me with a tax bill I received when I did not roll a pension payout to another financial tool. I had lost my job and had to use the money to live on.
I was sent a ton of paperwork that included a ACH payment form for nearly $800 to get the work started. After pre-paying for services, I was informed by the IRS- not Mr. Freeborne - that a payment plan had been set up to pay the entire tax bill. This is something that any taxpayer can do on their own.
I made those payments until such time that I had no more money to make the payments. I consulted w/Mr. Freeborne once again. He advised that I default for 3 months and he would then file a request for a settlement, even asking me to remind him around Dec 10th.
I sent an email reminder to Mr Freeborne on the date suggested and received his reply, including a bill for a $375 "continuation fee" to proceed with my case.
Washington Tax Service set up a pay plan for my taxes. That is all. Any tax payer can call the IRS and set up payments. Now he wants more money. That would be $1,175 total payments to get no results or relief, once again.
They did nothing to earn my initial payment, I expect the same would be true with a subsequent payment.
Please don't become another chump of Jay Freeborne. The worst waste of money in my entire life.
