Getting into their online system, I would get repeat requests to sign up even though I was already in. I also required a special two factor authentication. This would get annoying. Once I got a bill, I got emails at 2am asking for payment. This was also unnecessary. The worst part was advising me on what to do in the case of a marriage separation. Not only did I end up owing so much I had to deplete my emergency fund, but I had to pay 3k to learn that. I was asked once about my filing status and dependencies without being told how devastating it could be if that changed. In addition, they filed an extension, and I now owe interest and penalties. Yes, life changes mean financial hardship. But I was not properly advised and this ended up being the worst experience I've ever had with a CPA.

I was a loyal customer to the business that was bought out by Maryjo Boynton. The location was…read moreconvenient, so I continued to use her services. Prior to 2024 I had no complaints. However, after the amount of taxes due spiked in 2024, I decided to take a look at the numbers, and discovered an egregious error. They had utterly failed to account for the money I put into an IRA, which added about $1,800 to my taxes. I had submitted to them the form to report this. They failed. Period. The following is the text exchange I initiated after Ms. Boynton failed to return my phone calls. Note that she couldn't even be bothered to proofread herself. Quite the professional, eh? ME: Maryjo, I can't access the portal to pay my bill. I've left phone messages for 3 days, but haven't heard back. Please respond. Thanks. MS. BOYNTON: Mr. Haeuser, your portal has been closed. You were very definite in your last message to me that my service was not making you happy. I sent you back a message the next day- "if you are not happy with my services, which you have been receiving for the last few years you at a very discounted rate, then I suggest you find a new preparer that is what you consider affordable. I have deleted the return out of the portal. I will close you portal at the end of the week. Sincerely, Maryjo Boynton" ME: Ms. Boynton, I did not receive that message. If I had, why would I repeatedly call you to report an issue with the portal? That makes no sense, does it? At any time you could have simply returned my call, which your answering machine claimed would happen within 48 hours, but did not. As for being happy with your services, didn't someone else actually prepare my returns? The oversight on my IRA contribution could have cost me almost $1,800. Should I be happy about that, and the fact that I just realized it happened last year as well, and I'll need to file an amended return, which should be your responsibility? Check your records - I submitted all of the required forms. Prior to this, have I complained about anything, ever? No. And yet you immediately drop me as a customer, leaving me high and dry less than 2 weeks before the IRS filing deadline, while deleting all of my records, including prior years and all prior communications, including my willingness to delay a re-file for last year until you had more time available. You're seriously misreading this situation. The mistakes were not mine, and yet you're acting as though they were. To be clear, and for the record, these mistakes were made by employees of rbce, and should be rectified by employees of rbce. MS. BOYNTON: I can decide who my clients are and how to run my business. Look else where. You are no longer my client. MS. BOYNTON: You have an extension. You have plenty of time before the October deadline. ______ end of messages ______ A real professional, eh? IF YOU USE RBCE, I ADVISE YOU TO CONSIDER THE CONVERSATION ABOVE AND LOOK FOR TAX SERVICES ELSEWHERE. GOID LUCK!

I walked out with close to my anticipated return based on my research and previous taxes. Then 3/18/26 I found out they adjusted the paperwork and submitted changes without notifying me and its already gone through IRS. There's nothing I can do at this point and I'm out $200 for crappy service. Next year, I do it myself. Save yourself the trouble, go somewhere else.

We have incredibly complicated taxes, and so we have to drop them off early for her to get a head start on them. I can say without a doubt, that she's the joy of my tax time. She makes it easy and comfortable to deal with the IRS and all that's involved. Joanne works very hard on the return for us. This year, she even had to go out of her way to locate specific things that only applied to a few people period, and she found a way to do this for us and get us a refund. I am very sure if I had gone somewhere else, we would have been in a lot worse situation. The location is easy to find, it's well lighted, and I've never had any issue with going there. Taxes are complicated emotionally draining things, every year it's a struggle, but the one thing I have is the peace of mind that Joanne is going to take care of my family, and Joanne is the best. I have no idea about anyone else who works there, and I have done all the online booking of appointments ahead of time.
