Be warned! MUCHO CUIDADO!
I had a very bad experience with this tax preparer (Everardo Miramontes). My income was minimal that year so I did not want to pay premium just to file so I thought this preparer would be as good as Turbo tax.
I called and explained my tax requirements such as schedule C...etc. He gave me an estimate. The price seemed reasonable so I drove from the Southbay to "Age of Technology"
With 405 traffic, it took me about 1 hour to get to "Age of Technology". Everardo Miramontes starts entering numbers and I ask him how much is it going to cost since he already saw what was involved. He kept telling me he was very reasonable and his work was guaranteed...etc.
Upon entering all my personal info into his computer, he tells me how much I owe to the government. I ask again how much is he charging and he's still evasive just telling me if I didn't want to file, that was ok with him.
At this point not getting a final price, Everardo Miramontes being vague, the whole situation seemed like a scam. Upon pressing, he tells me I owe him 3 TIMES the original quoted price!
I asked why he had he given me this other quote over the phone and why did he not tell me BEFORE entering all my personal info into his system. At this point, I asked him to delete all personal info he had obtained from me! His answer: he needs to save the info for 3 years!!
Be very careful with your personal info, be very careful as you will likely be scammed by being charged an absured amount of $, and you will waste hours of your time. I DO NOT RECOMMEND EVERARDO L. MIRAMONTES AT "AGE OF TECHNOLOGY"
HIS ADDRESS at that time was:
Age of Technology
3811 Grandview Blvd
Los Angeles, California 90066
ESPANOL: cuidado con su informacion personal, cuidado con ser estafado, no recomendable.
