took $3500 from my credit card
They claimed to be partners with Applied Knowledge Institute and two guys put a hard sell on for two days and when I finally disagreed with them, they took money off my credit card without my permission. I didn't find out until I got the bill from Capitol One. In one day they took out $1000, $1000, $1000, and $500!! For a total of $3500 on my credit card. I've gotten no product, and no refund. They hurt me bad and I can't afford to pay my credit card. Thier lack of good business practices has cost me plenty. I have no job and no income at all and they refuse to work with me.

refund
I too was scammed by the Tax Club. I complained to the BBB in New York, and they stransfered the complaint to the BBB in Utah. I finally got a 50% refund, I think I should have got more, like 80% because they really did nothing for me. The Utah BBB helped me out to get he refund that I did get. They were a big help as I live in Canada and didn't have the resources that I needed to fight with a USA company. I agree with everyone that this organization should be shut down, and I am sure they are associated with Fortune Learning Systems, that is how they got ahold of me, becuase I was stupid enought to sign up with FLS. Also you have to complain to everyone you can think of. The Ripoff Report maybe will get you an answer from the Tax Club, but they side with the Tax Club, nevertheless The Tax Club don not like to have a BBB complaint against them.(It makes them look bad) imagine that!!!

Scamed out of $40,000
After a brief relationship with this company I am forced to file for bankruptcy. I knew what I was doing. Take this warning to heart. They use all the scam angles, tape you after an hour of conversations, basically out of context. You never received any thing promised. They ignore your recision on contracts, they switch the signature page on another contract with one you never signed. They lie about phone calls and mailed and e-mailed letters. The Head Turtle is the biggest Liar and his sidekick Jerry are raking in money for Anthony Morrison(or Tellman) He is one of the late night snakes, only he can't comb his hair and his clothier is Wall-mart. Your friends, the credit card companies are idiots and very biased towards the merchant, so don't count on any outside help, you're screwed and no help from any gov't agency or BBB.I was robbed of $40, 000 and the Medicare Part D, I had to file for protection now before I run out of Insulin and will not be able to get through the Hole phase in Part D. If you hear any of these bum's names, cut your losses and run as fast as you can. You will get nothing (Working Capital being #1, they hook yoo up with lenders whon do not deal with 1st time entrepreneurs) I have a 3 inch binder sent to three banks as I disputed their lies for over $30, 000. The banks reused to review the facts instead Chase, American Express and First National Bank of Omaha.Each bank was given a binder some denying receiving getting the binders. I spent $400 having the backup copied and put in the binder and all were sent Saturday, April 7, 2011 in priority mode.
So if you hear From a company called Win Coaching, Tranont Co and so called completely unrelated, The Tax Club, and the con-men, complete with a legal staff,
are Pagan Allen, Jerry Suntharo, Steven Broecker and Steve Hyatt all in the Empire State Building. Run, Run, Run, but get to an attorney asap, Do not sign anything!!!

Scam
Accelerated Mentoring gave these people my phone number and they began calling me to offer business set up and tax services. They talked me into paying them $8000 for setting up an S Corp and lifetime tax services. They failed miserably at these services, but kept up the high pressure sales pitch insinuating that I was too dumb to operate a business without pay them huge sums for their help. This is a SCAM bigtime. AVOID.

slow refund
Was connected to The Tax Club through PMI through StoresOnline (all Utah Corporations). Cancelled my membership within the 3 day period allowed but was told someone would call me back since I was at work. Had refused the startup materials shipped by FedEx so when they called & talked about moving ahead and moving forward, I didn't really care when they wanted to send the startup materials out again. Refused delivery again and they claimed that they had recovered me as a customer and I was outside of the 3 day window. I filed a complaint with the Utah BBB and started one with the Utah AG-consumer protection division. Called them back about the refund and was kept waiting and shunted to nonexistent extensions. Just as the Utah BBB closed the window on my complaint without my accepting it, they left a voicemail that they were crediting my card for the full amount. I found this out after I had mailed the credit card company information so they could reverse the charge. Lucky there but am still hooked up with PMI and Stores Online. Should have googled The Tax Club complaints first not last.

Financial Services
I first signed up with PMI to start an Internet Business(I would not recommed them either..I think its all a Big Scam!!). Then I was contacted by The Tax Club and they set up some "business meetings". Each business meeting was to get me to sign up for another "so called service" that The Tax Club provided.
At first they talked me into Incorporating to protect the assets I do not have and to reap the "330 tax breaks" I can get as a corp. Then I needed The Tax Club Tax Accounting Services for a one time fee of$3890(and this is the discounted rate) and after 4 months I will pay 49.99 a month for unlimited tax consultations and they would take care of all the paperwork I needed to keep my Corp "Compliant" as they "were knowledgeable in tax law and code in all 50 States". Then the next week I had another "business meeting". This time they convinced me I need the Bookepping Services..I told them I couldnt afford it, didnt want it and spent a coulpe hours on the phone..they wore me down . This cost a one time fee of 1495 and 29.99 after 9 months(and again this was the "discounted rate")...the next week I needed to have the "Business Credit Builder Plan"..I held them off for months..but they keep calling..they wanted 5000 or so for this..some how they down graded me to a "Business Plan Package"..i signed up for it 1795, then came to my sences and cancelled but since it hadnt been cancelled in the 3 day period they still are keeping 15% of the 1795 dollars. And as for the $5500 the sucked out of me..they inform me I cannot get a full refund because of "Services I Have Received"..Seriously???..All Ive got from The Tax Club and PMI is a Big Pain In My ASS!!! And no services what so ever! Theres more but Im getting so angry I cant type anymore!! This has cost me soo much money to incorporate to dissolve the corporation..my state has a minimum corporate tax that you have to pay no matter what(and they never told me this) and now Im trying to decided how to file forms with my state and the IRS in order to be compliant with these entities. Even though I have made no money spent alot of money and have already dissolved my Corp, with no help or guidance from "The Professionals at the Tax Club".
They are Scam artist and should be in jail or sued. I have received no services from them yet they have take about 5, 500 dollars..Im probably going to have to file bankruptcy. Between PmI and The Tax Club.my Spirit has been broken..I thought I was smarter than this but they take newbies who are naive and want to do something positive and make a change in their lives and they suck everything they can out of you!!! Run as fast as you can!!!
Please go to You Tube ansd post to The Tax Club Videos and expose these scam artists for what they are. You will see my post as Jaamman..join [email protected].
Dont make my mistake.
Thank you.

Scam
I signed up for The Tax Club because it was referred to me by legal zoom. At the time I was told there was an initial fee of $1600 and a monthly fee of $20. This ensures tax preparation every year.
The first 2 years went smoothly. Now they are telling me I need to pay $895 a year for tax prep in addition to the $20 per month. I was never told of this fee and they have no documentation of any such fee.
The original contract says nothing about a tax prep fee. They have apologized to me for forgetting to mention the $895.00 per year fee, however they will not refund any of my money. They also have admitted that there is no documentation anywhere of any such fee.
I have 2 small children to support and a struggling small business. I never would have signed up had I been informed about these fees. If there is ever a class action suit against The Tax Club I want to be involved, please contact me.
I am out a lump sum of $1600.00 along with $20 a month since Aug of 2008 equaling $600. Plus additional fees that have cropped up now and again that I haven't questioned in the past. If I had stayed with my original accountant from before I signed up with The Tax Club I would have paid a total of less than $600.00 for the past 2 years of tax prep.

will not honor refund
The Tax Club received my name from PMI Education of Utah. They explained to my husband and I that we needed their accounting service for a new business that we are just starting. Then Bookkeeping dept called telling us that we could not run a successful business without teaching us how to keep books. We had 2 more appointments, which by this time we realized were both going to tell us that we needed their services too. So we called to get a refund and no answer, we left voice mail and never received a return call. When we sent an email to the person who first sold us on the tax club, the email he gave us did not go through. Finally when we were able to contact them, we were told the 15 days for a refund was passed and we could not get any money back. We have dissolved our business that the tax club was to handle, but they will not refund our money, even though we no longer have a company to do taxes for. What a scam of a company they are.

Theft by deception
I was contacted by this company and decided to compare services that I had just signed up for at another company. The tax club told me that the company I had signed up for wasn't a company that could give me all that I needed and that they could give me all the other company gave me and much much more. That their company far exceeded the service that the company I had just signed with had to offer. They really use undue influence to get you to sign up. I signed and decided after to check back with my first company and immediately got that bad gut feeling for the tax club. I called the tax club back and cancelled my contract. They returned some of my money, but withheld $895.00 for what they called administrative fees. We had a few words about thier charges and business practices as a means of scamming victims. I then placed a complaint and dispute with my bank, (Bank of America), which I found will sell you down the river faster than the scamms themselves. The purpose of this complaint is to save others from becoming victims of both The tax Club and the Bank of America. Save yourself the pain and disappointment as well as the financial losses of dealing with these companies. Don't become a victim.

Scam/Fraud
It all got started back in early 2008 when I applied to a work from home business doing home rebates, then I started getting phone calls from all kinds of home business opportunities and the Tax Club being one of them they offered various programs for my busieness to be very succesful of course for a price and were very eager that I use my credit cards for payment of these services, they said not to worry that I would get every cent back from the Goverment when filing my business 2008 taxes I was very excided and dumb at the same time that I gave in and all kinds of phone calls started coming in with all kinds of appointments and my credit card debts all topped out and the rest is history I will make an official complaint to The Arizona Attorneys Gen.office for further advise and hopefully investigation and settlement for everybody involved of this scam...Jesse T.
