    I have used Dimov twice for tax prep now and they have been amazing both times. I highly recommend…read morethem to anyone who needs help in filing.

    My experience was less than satisfactory…read more (1) The return that the team prepared had two mistakes, which I spotted and saved myself 6,000$. This is the exact opposite of H&R Block Second Look - I was the second look! (2) Even if I started uploading my documents early, big stuff in February and March 3 (with some small updates for few hundred dollars coming later), the return was ready only on April 6, and the signature docs only on April 8. Add the weekend, and we got REALLY close to the deadline. They even suggested filing for an extension... due to their own delay. (3) My accountant was incorrect about the safe harbor and about AMT cost basis. It took multiple messages to correct the issues (we are still discussing some). (4) The free Q4 tax estimate took a month (from Nov 7 to Dec 4) after being bounced from one person to another. I ended up doing it myself and it was just double-checked by their team (BTW, I may have made a mistake and they didn't notice). (5) The team used their own Q4 estimate in my return, instead of the actual values, requiring me to scan the return line by line to find incorrect data. (6) It feels very impersonal. Different people will answer your messages, and it's hard to keep track of what's going on. (7) None of the people I talked to are listed as employees of Dimov Tax on Linkedin, and only one of them (who left Dimov) show up in Google searches at all. Really, not what I was expecting.

Don't worry I already said in my first edit that I will never have the pleasure of knowing your service. This should issue should have been closed a long time ago ending with my original review of your intake service call, but glad to know you're spending so much of your precious time disputing my yelp review. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Edit: I don't recall ever asking for a free 1 hour consultation. I simply asked if you guys could help me to which again a simple no would have sufficed because no matter how simple it was there would be no time, right? If there was no intention of taking on my case there wouldn't be need for you to clarify that you had a $350/hr fee and that you can't put other businesses on hold for me. Again there was no misunderstanding here, it was blatant disrespect in the crudest fashion. I'd understand if I caught you on a bad day, I'm a person too, but to keep justifying your tone and behavior is frankly insulting. I did reach out via chat first and received an immediate unavailable which prompted me that it might have been an answering bot and wanted to see if that was the case -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit: I called in for an inquiry, if you are busy or I inquired too late you can simply say no sorry we are unable to take your case, which is perfectly acceptable. I did not appreciate the condescending tone of telling me if I had came to you guys earlier, completely unnecessary. Finally you do not have to appreciate my review but your business is viewed as a whole from start to finish and that includes the inquiry process. You might be the best at what you do but because of this experience I will never have the pleasure of knowing that service. Hope this helps. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Called in and had a pretty terrible time with the person on the phone. I was asking if they are able to help me with an individual tax filing, and was replied with "we are at capacity". Perfectly reasonable explanation so I said "oh okay so you guys are busy", to which the person on the phone said "well we'd need need to file an extension and the fees that are associated with that would have to be calculated afterwards..." I was confused why I'd need an extension since it's 2 weeks till the deadline still and got hit with "well we have 500 clients we're trying to get out the door and if you had came to us earlier..." how many people that their firm is trying to get out the door seems irrelevant to my inquiry. They also said "well we charge $350 an hour and I can't put my other clients on hold for an hour just for your case" So basically I'm not paying them enough to have the dedicate even 1 hour, and doesn't matter how much it is an hour if I agree to it then I should also get the same level of service as everyone else. But again if you don't have time that's totally understandable I told them that a simple "we don't have time" would have been an adequate response, and it still would have been perfectly reasonable but instead of just telling me a straight answer they kept trying to justify why they can't help me with my filing and how busy they are, and how many clients they have. All seems pretty irrelevant to what I was originally calling for, ultimately I got a "Well I'm just gonna say we don't have time and leave it at that.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Michael and Didi were quick to clearly and politely respond to any questions I had regarding the tax process.

    Guys, if you want the best tax services in a timely and professional manner, this is your place!…read moreSike. I've seen better customer service at one of those do it yourself kiosks at McDonalds. I set up a virtual appointment and after waiting for 40 minutes I got a phone call with no apology and was informed that my tax preparer was too busy to help. Nice. I then set up an in person appointment with a tax professional for 9am. They insisted I come in and shouldn't do it virtually. The employee arrived at 9:20, and the doors weren't open so I got to stand outside in the cold for 20 minutes waiting. Luckily, I have alligator blood like Matt Damon in rounders. After sitting down, I was informed that because of some specific forms I had, this person couldn't help me, but I can make another appointment. Would have been cool to know that beforehand, especially since I uploaded them all to their portal a week prior. On second thought, this place rules, definitely go here!

    Unprofessional. Hideous customer service…read more I waited 20 minutes for someone to assist me. An older lady who worked at 151 tremont location expected me to leave my sensitive documents at the unattended front desk and had the gaul to get mad at me when I asked when the receptionist would return or if there was a more secure way to leave my sensitive documents for my tax preparer. She was not capable of answering these two basic questions and just seemed to get madder. I tried to ask when I should come back but she just walked away. In a world where you cannot be too careful and cannot count on the common sense of others to not over-react I didn't want to keep pushing for information and have her blow up at me but it was just a lousy experience. Super unprofessional and zero customer service. How can you trust someone to prepare your taxes when they cannot interact with other humans? Dont go here
