Intuit plans appeal, slams FTC's "predetermined decision."

It’s about time that Intuit was called out for their scam. Hopefully, the attempt to stop the federal tax filing will get dismissed as well.

    A (now ex) coworker turned me on to FreeTaxUSA like a decade ago and I’ve been using it every year since then. It’s easy, free (for federal) and just works. I usually pay the $15 for them to file state/school since I’m a lazy fuck but really, my time is worth something after all. I’ve had zero complaints with them.

        Formerly Credit Karma taxes because Credit Karma was bought by Intuit, believe it or not, and they had to spin off the tax prep part.

          Huh I did not know this. CK was my backup to FT USA but that is indeed some sneaky shit. I’m scared now for FT USA - PLEASE DO NOT SELL OUT.

            I used Credit Karma taxes for several years and have actually used the Cash app Taxes for the last two years since the switch and while it’s not quite as good as it was under the CK umbrella it’s still been mostly okay for me.

      It also works smooth with state taxes! I used to have to manually fill out a pdf and attach for the state portion of the return with other software.
