On February 4, 2014 I received a letter/ package from the IRS requesting back-up paperwork to support my 2012 tax return, within 30 days. I immediately became alarmed, frightened, and sick to the stomach simultaneously. I had never dealt with the IRS other than filing my tax returns religiously every year and on time. I aimlessly existed as myself for a day without mentioning or speaking to anyone about my dilemma.
On the February 6, 2014, while driving to work I heard an advertisement about how the “Tax Authority LLC“ could help me. I pondered, thought to myself this is a blessing sent from GOD, and called. My phone call was immediately answered by a gentleman by the name of Anthony. I began to elaborate in detail the situation I was in and expressed the IRS needed a response by March 3, 2014. Anthony was relentless while making a sales pitch, yet he spoke in terms as though he was the one that would be handling my case.
He assured me that his office would negotiate with the IRS to lower amount owed and\or get me into a low payment schedule if necessary. Anthony also stated it would behoove me to act fast and sign a service agreement so that they would have time to prepare my case properly. It was a Thursday and I relayed to him I would give it some thought and would give him a call back on Monday. He obliged and gave me his personal cell number to reach him over the weekend just in case I had additional questions.
On Friday Feb. 7, 2014 Anthony called me; again reminding me that he had prepared a service agreement and was prepared email to me for signature. I explained he could email but I wouldn’t be signing, if at all until Monday. On Saturday Anthony called again, after checking around on the internet for other attorneys, not referring to the BBB I relented, filled out, and signed the service agreement while providing my checking account information. I was billed on the same day (Saturday) after emailing information back to Anthony.
On Monday I called the office and I couldn’t get in touch with Anthony. I called l all day Monday and finally reached him on Tuesday on his personal cell. He stated he would be in touch with me but to provide the information requested by his office. I did and never heard from them again. During the interim I have contacted this company and never can reach anyone except maybe the operator. I worried but assumed they had provided the IRS the information as required.
On June 26, 2014 I receive a letter from the IRS stating they had received my information but had not received the documents they initially requested and the amount had changed due to interest and penalties. The Tax Authorities LLC did not provide all the information I had given to them nor did they copy me as promised on all correspondence t the IRS. I have call Tax Authorities LLC and was put in contact with a young lady named Elizabeth Ure. Again she sounded sincere and expressed her apology for my inconvenience. She said she would look at my file and get back with me. I have heard from her once and again I am being run around.
This company has to be stopped they are taking hard earned cash from people that have entrusted their life to them.
