Very disappointed in services rendered by Jeffrey Shad. His receptionist Sara is unprofessional and…read morewould benefit from a customer service class. Called the office on 4/15 to confirm that my NYS tax payment was submitted for an automatic electronic debit from my bank account...I got conflicting answers and when I said that I had a busy day ahead of me and really didn't have time to come down there and get the IT 201 Jeff basically told me that I don't know what a busy day is. I then spent over an hour on hold with NYS and now have been in an email war with Jeff since this morning...still I am not sure if it was submitted or not. Here is the last response I received from Jeff himself Again, this matter has NOTHING to do with me and is out of my control. VERY SIMPLY, it is YOUR responsibility to make sure your taxes are paid, NOT MINE, and if you knew that the state did not withdraw the taxes on the designated date you should have IMMEDIATELY, on THAT DAT,E called my office and I would have provided you with the voucher you need to mail in a check. Why in the world would you let it drag on until the last minute and then expect me to jump through hoops on my busiest day of the year. Please no more emails. I did not read your last one and will not read any additional ones. My question was simple...was my or was not my NYS tax payment electronically submitted to NYS for payment?? It is now the 17th and I still have no direct answer to that question. After the treatment I have received from both Jeff and his secretary/receptionist whatever she is I would not EVER refer anyone to him. Consider yourself warned

Absolutely terrific addition to Kingston Businesses! Padgett offers amazing service to customers,…read moregoing far beyond giving just a sterile and anonymous tax return!! Whenever I have a tax related question-- or questions about things that include taxes (like financial aid, etc) Karen is always generous with her knowledge and incredibly helpful.

I cannot say enough good things about this business, and I couldn't be more grateful for their services. HIGHLY recommend!!

Let me start by saying I NEVER write reviews. With that being said after seeing the only other…read morereview here for Don I felt compelled to create a profile and write this review. Don has been doing my taxes now for 20 years. His knowledge, experience and expertise has saved me a lot of money over the years and more importantly, prevented me from inadvertently running afoul with the IRS. My wife has her own business so knowing what to do and how to do it is critical. The only concern I have every year during tax time is that Don might have finally chosen to retire and I'll have to try to find another equally expert Accountant. If you are looking for an Accountant don't hesitate to use Don.

Then he suddenly charged me an extra $250 that he had never mentioned before. I questioned it to no avail, so I had no choice to pay it to get my taxes. I later went to a tax seminar in the local area [Fishkill] where the speaker was a former IRS tax attorney [Mr. Jones]. After the seminar, I told Mr. Jones what Mr. Dig had said & done at the last minute & Mr. Jones said it was inappropriate, he should not have charged me anything more at all & suggested I tell Mr. Dig this & ask him to return my $250. I did so. Mr. Dig still refused to return my money. I will NEVER use him again. Jake
