The Jackson Hewitt customer service number in the US is 1-800-234-1040, and jacksonhewitt.com has a help section. For problems with a specific return, start at the office that prepared it: bring your documents and ask for the office manager. Many locations are independently operated, including desks inside Walmart stores, so the national line may route you back to the local office.

Office and national line each pointing at the other? Start your complaint here with the dates and what each of them told you on it, and we open a case with you and keep coaching you on what to reply, when to push and how to escalate if nothing happens.

Tax preparation fees depend on the office and on the forms your return needs, so two people with similar situations can see very different bills. Protect yourself by asking for a complete written quote before anyone starts on your return, and compare the final bill against that quote line by line before you sign anything.

If the final bill jumped far past the quote, keep both documents together: the gap between what was quoted and what was charged is exactly what to put in writing, with amounts and dates.

A refund advance is a loan issued by a partner bank against the refund you expect, and that structure explains most disputes: approval is never guaranteed, the amount can come out lower than hoped, and the actual tax refund still comes from the IRS on its own schedule, not from Jackson Hewitt. So first pin down what went wrong: an advance that was denied, an advance smaller than discussed, or a refund that is simply still with the IRS.

Gather your loan agreement, the amounts you were told and the dates, and ask Jackson Hewitt in writing to explain the decision. With a loan product, the paper trail decides the dispute, so keep copies of everything.

Write down the office location, the preparer's name and the dates of your visits, and ask for a complete copy of your return with the worksheets behind it: you will need those if you believe a mistake was made. Raise the problem first with the office manager, then through the national customer service line if the office does not respond. If an error on your return costs you money, ask in writing how they intend to correct it.

A filing error that cost you money and an office that will not correct it? Name the office, the preparer and the dates in your complaint, push your case through our complaint process, and we bring it to the attention of Jackson Hewitt through emails, social media and paper complaint letters.
