Jackson Hewitt Tax Service

Do not (do not, do not) get your taxes done at Jackson Hewitt, and especially not at this location!
We went in on a Saturday, eager to start our taxes, and drawn in by the promise of a $ 50 Wal mart giftcard instantly (electronically sent through email).
We first asked the tax pro how much it would be. He said, «let me go through the process, I won’t find out until the end, and if you don’t like it, you don’t have to file.» Cool, sounded good. He got to the last of the paperwork and said «it comes out to $ 256.» Hmm. For one w-​2 with two dependents, that was a little steep. We told him we did not want to file at that time, we would go look around, and if we didn’t find a better price, we’d be back.
Fast forward to Mon, we were in a hurry to submit the paperwork so we went back to the location and found a different tax pro working. We gave her our info, she found the file and submitted it. She handed us a packet for our records.
When we got home, we looked through it and found that Jackson Hewitt had charged us $ 396!!! (To be deducted from refund.)
Oh and that «instant» giftcard? Never got it. We called to complain, JH said they’d have to check with Wal Mart and to check our email «in a week or so.»
We got told we were misinformed by the 1^st tax pro and the price was $ 396! We would have neverrrrrr filed with this company for that amount, had we known! My suggestion, stay away from Jackson Hewitt. If this Wal Mart tax prep works like this, how do you know that any other locations are ANY better? I personally will never do my taxes w/​Jackson Hewitt again
