Really quite bizarre and has left me wondering.

It really does say something because of how picky I am in a big world of other bigger franchise tax-based companies claiming to get you back your taxes. With Hamati B & T, though, you get a more personalized treatment, service, and no sugar coating truth about where your tax situation will be. Hamati B & T continues to never surprise me with their service and friendliness as well as their professionalism. Having said that, my wife and I are getting a great return on our taxes! Please go to them... it would be a mistake not to!

I was very fortunate to be helped by Mr. John Anderson. He was very patient, friendly, knowledgeable, took the time to know my situation to better serve my family's needs. I really appreciate him for promoting diversity with his staff and creating unique Tagalog ad/flyers that assists Filipino families and the elderly. I recommend all Filipinos to meet with him and his friendly staff! It was a delight to get to know John and do business with his team. He provided me with quality, transparent tax advice and other resources to help me prepare for my future taxes. I appreciate him for sharing information and providing excellent customer service. You will walk away from this branch with more love and knowledge knowing that H&R Block has your back 100% I am thankful for meeting John and look forward to doing business with him in the future!

I have been going to same office (American canyon Ca)for many years. Also many times I used the…read moredrop and go, very convenient . However this year when I came to office with all my documents. I was standing at the counter right next to the big red sign that said "Drop and Go" and the representative told me I could not drop and go.  I had to get a link then take pictures of my documents with my phone and send them to them. The documents were in my hand but they would not take them. So I walked away.  To me this is beyond ridiculous. A longtime customer with all the documents and they would not accept them. I am baffled.  I had been a customer for many years now maybe not anymore. They should probably remove  their drop and go sign too.

We've worked with Melissa Petrie for nearly ten years, and I honestly can't imagine trusting anyone…read moreelse with our taxes. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable and detail-oriented, but she genuinely cares about her clients. Over the years she's helped me navigate everything from routine tax filings to complex business and personal financial decisions -- always explaining things clearly and making sure I understand the "why" behind the tax law and her recommendations. I never feel rushed or embarrassed to ask questions, and I always come away feeling more informed and confident in our decisions. She helped us successfully navigate a difficult long-term tax issue with the IRS -- and thanks to her thoroughness and persistence, we didn't have to pay for a mistake that wasn't ours. She consistently brings us new tax information as it becomes available and explains how it could affect us -- both as a business and personally -- along with smart ways to take advantage of benefits or minimize any negative impact. She helps us plan ahead in ways that have saved us stress and money! Her fees are more than reasonable given the quality, care, and peace of mind she provides. Having been through several CPA's before finding Melissa, I can tell you that it's rare to find someone who is this skilled and proactive. If you're looking for a CPA who is trustworthy, experienced, and truly invested in your success, I can't recommend Melissa highly enough.

I feel very lucky to have found them. My tax preparer there was Ana Cardona. I was very impressed with the process they have there and especially Ana. She was very precise as well very knowledgeable about tax preparation. I learned things about my tax return that I had never known before. She answered all of my questions as well as going over my finished tax return with much detail. I brought all of the paperwork needed and we went over our tax return, line by line. What was also very impressive, after she entered my information into their tax program, we were able to complete the process right there and was told that our return would be submitted electronically that day. As our yearly tax refund is an important part of our yearly budgeting, to do this process so quickly was very unexpected and helpful. I would feel good about recommending MM Tax Preparers and, especially, Ana.

I came in for my appointment at 2pm and even though he saw me, he kept talking on the phone for another 20 min!! How RUDE! Finally after waiting on him he called me to his desk but gave me a BUNCH of WRONG information and how I'm going to owe taxes etc when I knew that was incorrect, he proceeded to act like he was in a rush and trying to get rid of me!! I had to open my phone and show him my research on HOW TO FILE THE ADDITIONAL FORM! What's up with that!??? You're supposed to be the tax professional!! After I told him how it should be filed, he said that will be $400 after his employee Daisy had quoted me $300-350 which is still WAY too HIGH! I was SO MAD AND FELT ABSOLUTELY NO CONFIDENCE IN THIS MAN, so I decided to bring my husband with me when it was time to pick up my amended taxes. When Mauricio saw me come in with my husband, he IMMEDIATELY jumped up from his desk even though he was sitting with 2 clients and spoke to me like he was this nice professional!! WOW!! So that's how he treats women huh?!! I paid with my CC and got charged an additional 4% ($14)!! Highway Robbery!! I called later and asked to speak with him (because obviously I wasn't happy with my experience with him) and I was told he still had clients but that he would call me right back. The office closed for the day and I got no call back. So now here is your review Mauricio. You need to do better with your customer service and read up on what you should already know! Lastly stop trying to cheat people out of their money! After this horrible experience, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!
