Super Fast Tax Refund Rip-Offs
Executive Summary about tax refund loan by David S Roberts
It wasn’t too long ago that the two major tax chains came up with the idea to promote what they called, “Super Fast Tax Refunds” or “24 Hour Tax Refunds”.
The client does not get their tax refund quicker. They are actually signing away their refund to a bank!
This product is actually a high interest loan based on the total amount of your tax refund. If there is a market for these services and others, these companies should have the freedom to promote and sell these products.
There are several fees attached to this ‘quick’ refund.
The ‘bank fee’ is the fee charged to the tax preparer by the bank providing this loan. That is pure profit to the tax prep franchise chain.
The ‘cover-story’ on this fee is that it is being used to check the credit of the client to make sure that they don’t owe the IRS any money and as such would not be eligible for the rapid refund bank loan.
$250 – $300 for the preparation fees, $52 for the bank fee, $50 for the application fee and the interest on a $5000 refund we have a grand total of $402-$452 with $152 being just the fees involved in getting your $5000 check the next day. Now there is a NEW product called the Refund NOW Loan where you can get up to half of your refund before you leave the office. This incurs even more fees and at a higher rate.
Sometimes, the only reason a client chooses this product is that they don’t have the available cash to pay for their tax preparation immediately.
