I called the number in the article and was told I wouldn't have to upgrade to file Schedule D (after
a lot of whining and complaining). Next year may be a different story.

If anyone wants to call and bitch, the number is in the article. Might do some good.



Doesn't Wal-Mart have some cheap software you could use?

I went to buy TT a couple weeks ago on Amazon and saw the reviews.
One or two stars. The reviews gave fair warning.
I'll still buy it because I don't use Sch D.
The walkthru isn't tedious if you skip most of it, and it picks up all
the info from my previous filing, and downloads most of the rest, and
files the forms for free.
It makes filing taxes painless for me.
If I still filed Sch D I'd pass. Not going to call and beg.
They lost a lot of customers with that "surprise" downgrade.
Walmart may get that business yet.

I always wondered why a retailer carried TT or TaxCut. They get one sell,
and then Intuit and Block directly sell to the user. I thought that was a
really scummy business practice.

i switched to TT from Tax Cut because TC couldn't properly handle some rental property numbers.
Never thought of going back, but am now. I'll see what TT is asking for the Premier version next
year. I'm wondering if TC can automatically download all the carryover input from last year's Turbo
Tax.

But then again, $85 sure beats the hell out of many hundreds at H&R Block. If TT had announced last
year that they planned to do this, I'd not be bitching (well, maybe not as much). I can imagine how
****ed I'd be if I had spent the time getting the data into TT only to be told "YOU MUST UPGRADE".
Apparently that happened to a lot of people. Look at the difference in ratings for the 2014 Deluxe
version versus the 2013 Deluxe version.

And I don't think it was a software problem. Intuit ****ed up. But, I'll probably pay the additional
bucks next year.
