If there was a space for Zero stars, Tax Rise would have been selected. It has been going on over two years now and my tax situation has not been resolved. It was only until recently, I found out that I have not spoken to a real tax professional, but trained assistants who relay the conversations back to the tax professionals, I guess. Needless to say, I paid the company $3000 to resolve my tax burden and am now being garnished; have been for the last five months. They have blown a lot of smoke over the phone and nothing has... read more

It's been over 2 years since I started working with Tax Rise. Interest has accrued on my taxes with no resolution in sight and over $5,000 paid to Tax Rise. I'm currently seeking a refund and then try to figure out a way to pay my taxes on my own.

I used TaxRise for what I thought was the *** fresh start program to get help with my back tax debt. I had numerous calls with my taxrise agent, paid the retainer fee and then their $4000charge to get my issue resolved. I knew I would not hear from them for a bit while things were being worked on. Received an email 10/2 that my resolution was complete and my case manager would reach out soon. As of 11/19, crickets from them but did receive letter from *** that my new payment agreement (FOR MORE .THAN $300 from what I was ori... read more

Got scammed out of $2375.00 I was promised throughout the complete process my tax liability would be forgiven right up to the last phone call from the agent I was communicating with, the next phone call I received and last phone call I received the agent told me I still owed the original tax liability and the only thing tax rise did for the $2375.00 was get my payment reduced $29.00 per month which extended the length of time to pay off with added interest and penalties which is against their 100% money back guarantee becaus... read more

I contacted tax rise in September and at first they seemed very helpful and responsive. Since the beginning of October they have become virtually impossible to contact and still haven't filled my trades. I am single, no dependants, easy form. They haven't done ANYTHING with my taxes. I'm getting letters and all they say is " don't worry". They are collecting money from me monthly. If like to break the contract and try other options.

While the customer service when calling is is very helpful, the communication need tremendous work. Specifically, they needed more documents than I provided and when they did finally reach out asking me to call them, when I called no one could find out what it was that I needed to do which caused me to be levied by the ***. Now I am in a race against time to satisfy the needs to rectify this situation. I have had more than a few issues including being dropped as a client for not providing necessary documentation when I wasn'... read more

If I can give a zero on this review I would....Called this company for Tax relief and done everything necessary upon request from Taxrise and was told with documentation of approval, only to be told after paid starter fees and setup a financial plan with third party Westlake portal financial ******************** that sorry you was not a approved and you would need to take care of your tax matters yourself and we will cancel Westlake account... after that call, me and my wife paid the *** directly and then I received another ... read more

Taxrise is a great name for this company because that is what will happen. The amount you owe will rise. I wasted so much time on this, and in the end, I owe more, plus I had to pay these thieves. I am not sure who the bigger thieves are, the *** or Taxrise. I went from owing about 15K to over 24K with their "Settlement," and they claim they got a deal for me. Don't waste your time or your money with this company!
