I would not do that again. Based on the results I would not use it or refer them. I had over payed my taxes by six thousand dollars, I wanted them to be able to reconcile instead they got me to pay a hundred dollars and it was not what they had committed to for me and in that thing. I was really counting on them. I have found that they are a group of individuals spread all over the country and that they work with each other but they're really not a concentrated company. At least in my experience I was calling different numbers all over and I don't think they understood my request.

We were desperate. The IRS did not agree to the terms of our tax reduction but that was beyond our control, I had an issue before I wasn't aware of. It is a good company. They were very helpful and they kept us in the loop. I got emails letting me know what the status was.

I heard about on an advertisement on the radio. They didn't live up to the to either my expectations or what the problem they had promised. It was not a good decision. In fact I'm looking at the other Tax relief companies at the moment to see if I can get an additional systems from them. My experience with them as they put me in a very difficult position financially and there were times when I called three or four times in one day and sent multiple emails and got no response.

There were billing issues from beginning I have had 3 different case workers in two months I have given all info requested, communication is miserable, the only progress made was made by a manager, I still owe as much as I ever did and that number has gone up since I hired tax defence in penalties, my monthly payment is 500.00$ per month plus what I pay tax defence 195.00 pre month, bottom line, I spent money on tax defence adding to my debt and would have been better off just dealing with the government my self

The had to restart my case three times because they dropped the ball on their end. Sometimes I wouldn't hear from them for over a month. Because they didn't do their job correctly one of my bank accounts was levied. I paid them to avoid this happening and it was only after months of negligence on their end that the levy occurred. I should have just dealt with it myself. One of the problems that happened was that I paid for both state and IRS and the man who was helping me didn't listen to me and look into whether I had paid for the state and so he never worked on it! I am shocked at how bad this company is and surprised they are in business. I paid a lot of money to have peace of mind and it's been over a year of stress with them. I should note that I have been paying down my taxes every month. I haven't just been waiting for them to do their job.

If I had to do it all over again I would try to find another company. It's disappointing when you have to call him and ask him what's going on and you have to keep calling and calling and calling then you have to call someone over top of the person that is helping you. And then you tell them to call you back or text or send a fax. I feel there was times I was in the dark and a couple of times I've had to take things into my own hands to get things straightened out.

Terrible company to work with. We started working with them in November of 2018. It literally took until December of 2019 when I finally cancelled our POA and took over to complete it myself with the IRS tax advocates office. We were levied over $6000 because they never followed up with our IRS officer to make sure she had all the information she had requested. Her story was that the fax wasn't complete and it wasn't her job to call. Tax Defense said they sent it, but no one followed up and we were the victim of it and no one cared. When all was said and done and we finally got an agreement in place, it came with the wrong dates on it. That one nearly cost me an extra $3900 but I caught it and stopped the draft at my bank. After contacting Tax Defense again to fix the error, I was once again given the run around and how they were "working on it". After 5 months with no corrections of the dates of error, I cancelled my POA with Tax Defense Network and contacted the IRS advocates office myself. I had it fixed in less than a month and the advocates office told me there was no contact with our revenue officer showing that Tax Defense ever tried to fix the dates issue. This was my second time working with them, the first time was in 2016 and they were great. I think they have gotten too big and don't have the people they need to do the work they have. I was told by one tax attorney that he had 200 other people with the same issues and I wasn't special. I don't need to be special, but when I am paying you thousands of dollars to work for me and help me, I expect results which were like pulling teeth to get. Stay away, call the advocates office and do it yourself. I will never use another tax service again. The IRS is scary, but the process can be less intimidating if you just make the call yourself to the IRS. Don't let these people take your money.

None.

Because i feel it was a scam. I was told "oh yeah u pay us 500$ and with ur income we are sure you will qualify for loan forgiveness. I paid the 500$ and then was asked to pay another 800$ then i would have yo pay 15$ each month and re evaluate each year. WHAT??? When i called (several times for answers to some questions i had, i was unable to get anyone to answer my specific questions. I emailed my specific questions and again no answers, but they sure kept calling to send the papers in to take more money from me. I gave 500$ it this scan and just about gave 800$ to this scan again with no specific answers. When i could have spent that 500$ just to the loan company or toward my 2 children due to being a single parent its not like i had extra money to just blow on this scan. So thanks for taking my money and me getting absolutely nothing out of my 500$. Lesson learned. Please leave me along.

Clay L West Sacramento, CA

I was in a tax pinch and owed the IRS $20,000. I called TDN and after speaking to a Rep, they asked if they could get my IRS bill reduced to 7k-8k would that work for me? TDN was charging 3k for this and it sounded like a no brainer so I signed up and paied my money. After6-8months of getting my tax filings and the reviewing them, TDN told me inorder to go further I would need to pay several more $1000s if I wanted them to get the bill reduced. Otherwise they would set up a payment plan on what I owed. So in a nutshell they wasted a bunch of my time, I paid the IRS interest on what I owed during the time TDN was doing nothing for me and all I got was a payment plan I could have easily set up myself for free. When I brought up the fact that I was sold on the huge tax reduction, they ignored that and told me it would cost more. Big waste of time and money!!

They did not fulfill their end of the agreement as far as I'm concerned. They took thirty three hundred dollars from me and my husband and they didn't complete what they said. They were going to help us to file our taxes send them in and go to bed and try to get them as low as they could and they didn't do that part, they tried to add another three thousand dollars on to of what we paid in order to complete the process but that's not what we understood at the beginning.

As I oppose to some other similar company by coincidence there're a lot of them on the internet and I end up going with them because they seemed to be comprehensive in their capability. I believe it was on April of 2016 when they started working with my tax issue and it was tentatively resolved on November of 2016 except that it wasn't completely resolved and it finally got it resolved by January of 2018. It took almost 2 years to get it solved and during the process of it I was making payments to the government, I paid about $28,000 dollars on November of 2018 when the IRS was asking for $100,000 dollars and in the following year when I finally got it resolved I paid to the government a $100,000 dollars. I would not recommend them to anyone do to what happened. When I sent them an email it took them two, three or four days to send me an email or called me back, they were not very responsive in retrospect. I got no tax relief from their service, I end up paying the full tax bill plus interest expenses. I wish I've gone with another service.

I had a fairly significant amount I owed to the IRS and I was hoping to get that reduced. They were generally fairly responsive and ultimately things were ok. They advertise that they have large reductions for taxes available but that's not really true. The whole tax relief field is basically just fraud and their advertisings are misleading. I paid money for nothing.
