Started receiving bills for work that had been covered under our monthly retainers. Called the HD Davis MANY times to have an explanation of charges- even spoke to the owner with the promise that someone would call me back with an explanation. Never received a call back. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ANYONE!!! So many local CPAs to hire that will actual care about a small business!! Definitely not this one!!!!!

Long story short, she messed up numbers and sent my return to the wrong bank account and 4 months…read morelater I haven't gotten a penny. So I sent her a email about it, I've gotten no updates, over 45 days ago she said they would be refunded in her own personal bank account and it's been over 45 days so I asked her about it and I mentioned asking a lawyer for their input and she told me I'm no longer allowed to contact her or her office that I'll get my money when I get it. Then after I wrote a review on facebook she texted my number saying she called the irs to cancel the tracking so I won't know when my money is arriving. She can call them to tell them to cancel it but she cant call them to ask about the money . Unprofessional

BE ADVISED***** I have used Christina as my accountant for myself and my business for about 10…read moreyears, she had made some mistakes over the years, but nothing too major to where I switched accountants.... but this last year her erratic behavior, her lies about being in the office, her completely neglecting me for months at a time (which I'm assuming is because I relocated across the country so she was able to get away with it) and her complete negligence on filing my taxes.... I ended up having to hire an attorney, and a new CPA to fix her mess!!! She convinced me to allow her to file an extension saying something about waiting on a bill to pass which would make things better for me tax wise, then decided to not file AT ALL... so Not only did my taxes not get filed I got hit with $285 worth of late fees after hiring a new CPA because even IF the extension was filed she waited till mid OCT (PASS DEADLINE) to tell me not to worry about the $285 it will be abatement ...ANOTHER LIE .... I finally got her to respond minimally - of course I get no explanation, and then she proceeds to get angry that I'm asking her questions and tells me I owe 4x the amount I've EVER owed, I'm assuming to try to punish me, because my CPA told me I owed about half of the regular return not 4x the amount.... So of course I hire an attorney to tell her I want my $285 in late fees... and of course she doesn't pay it...because she doesn't think as a business professional she should have to rectify any of her mistakes... she isn't accountable... her behavior is erratic to the point where I have my own speculations as to what's going on with a business professional acting in that manner and constantly lying.... do your self a HUGE favor and stay away from this woman.... Not only is she not certified but you will be left high and dry and she will be sure she's not held accountable. You have been warned!

Or remember the lyrics to any song with more than ten words. So, I don't. I just let Ahola take care of all that. (The payroll, not the climbing/running/remembering part.) And they do just a swell job, too, with all the messy paperwork e-mailed every pay period, hard copy snail mailed, end of quarter stuff, end of year stuff. It's so easy, some weeks I just stay in bed, watching Oprah and eating SnackWells. "YOU get SnackWells! And YOU get SnackWells! And YOU..." Here's another aspect of their business, as you can see from the Ohio Historical Marker outside their office and pictured with this review: They are a family-founded company. and they are local. So even my payroll is free-range locavore. How sweet is that, I must ask? And when I have some problem with payroll, as I did just this morning, I can waltz right in and speak with my representative, who remembers me, and my family, and my business, and I don't have to press seven to speak with someone who is pre-ignoring my problem.

The AHOLA Payroll Service and their HCM System (iSolve) are great. It's a great family owned…read morecompany which is why we selected AHOLA, in addition to the many referrals we received from other local business owners. They have always gone the extra mile for our business and have always been quick to resolve any issue or questions we might have. I recently implemented their iSolve HIRE portal and it's a great all inclusive system. AHOLA did have a recent issue on October 25, 2019 with the 3rd party ACH (Automated Clearing House) which handles electronic transfers throughout the U.S.. However, the team at AHOLA worked throughout the night and the weekend to resolve the issues, forming new partnerships to ensure this issue never happens again. How any companies out there would go that extra mile to implement corrective action so quickly and only losing one business day. It's a testament to their business resolve and as a Human Resource Manager, I am glad to have them and their resources available to me.

This place might be a go-to if you have some very simple taxes. However, if you own a business,…read morerun. Here's my experience. Hire this place too. Take care of my bookkeeping and that was not done. 3 months later I receive an invoice again and my bookkeeping is still not done. However, I was instructed via email how to do it myself. I didn't hire them so I could do it myself. So I paid the invoice and expected to get what I was paying for yet again. 3 months later, mind you now taxes are behind, I was still being told how to do it myself. Again, I didn't hire them so I could do it myself. Then. Apparently things got too complicated with my very simple user. Friendly QuickBooks and whoever was in charge over there just quit on me. After I've paid over $1,000. So of all the money I sent them, what I have gotten is absolutely nothing. Less than nothing actually because I'm still in the same boat just 6 months later. And if anybody would like more details, by all means, please contact me through my Google link. And if the owner of this company would like to change this review, get my taxes done like I paid you for.
