Complete crooks. Save your money and negotiate for yourself. I paid 6k and nothing was ever done. Won’t give a refund and won’t work on my case unless I pay more fees.

On 9/1/21, I hired Anthem Tax Services (ATS) based on the presentation by the company’s salesperson. He promised that ATS would negotiate and obtain a significant reduction in my tax debts with the IRS. He demanded a fee of $6,5K and collected $1.5K upfront. The balance was to be paid off with monthly payment of $671. I had paid close to $3.5K to ATS and received zero service, except for the computer calculated installment agreement to the IRS. The amount of the monthly payment to the IRS as “negotiated” by ATS is the same computer calculated amount that I obtained from IRS website prior to my engagement with ATS. Most important, it was not until 1/26/22, that l was made aware unless the full $6.5K is paid, not only that ATS “Resolution Department” would not work on my reasonable cause penalty, but Anthem “cannot guarantee success.” Lastly, on 2/4/22, I received an email from Anthem that simply affirmed that ATS would keep my $3K, because “[my] case is not eligible for a money-back guarantee request, since Anthem was not “given the opportunity to complete [my] case and explore all possible resolution options with all applicable taxing authorities.” ATS added yet another reason – a lie, of course - to keep my $3.5K; thus “since you are advising that you have contracted another tax firm to move forward contacting the IRS on your behalf and the other company is now tasked with the resolution of your tax liability, we will move forward with the cancellation of your service. This is due to you breaching our agreement and initiating services with another tax firm to contact the IRS for the same service we were contracted for.” False. I did no such thing. It is a stupid lie that could be disproved easily with a single telephone call to the IRS. To this day, ATS remains my tax rep of record with the IRS. Hence, ATS would not have a problem with IRS to verify whether ATS has been replaced by another firm as my tax rep. So, yes, I have been swindled out of $3.5K by ATS.

I would give less stars if allowed. Anthem promises you unrealistic goals then leaves you in the dust. I asked for a refund 5 months ago and they sent a customer relations specialist to reel us back in. She promised us what we paid for and we stayed long enough to be ghosted since mid June, just after my BBB complaint was removed because they said we were not clients at all. Beware of companies that ask for upfront fees and promise pennies on the dollar... Anthem Tax does both.

My experience so far has been less than steller. Smooth talkers to take my money but now that I'm still waiting to find out what's going on with my Case it's been crickets. I'm going to soon start to see if I can get my money back from your company through my bank because you have done nothing at all to help me in the past 5 months and no one will give me answers

The worst experience ever. I would not recommend them.

I picked this company because I thought I was reading good reviews. However my experience has been terrible. They were readily there when they wanted to take my money but when it came time for them to call me on agreed appointment times, multiple times I did not receive a call. Even when I left a voice message and email, it was ignored. I had to call and ask for a different advisor and the next was no better. They take an already anxious situation and do nothing to assure you. Unfortunately I am in the middle Of trying to settle my tax issues so there is nothing I can do but wait on them. Just today another phone call that was scheduled and planned and I even received a reminder for did not happen with absolutely no explanation. Unprofessional and unreliable

I contacted Anthem Tax Service (ATS) over 18 months ago. After speaking with Greg he guaranteed that they would save me at least the cost of the program of $4500. Initially I had great hopes, but after they kept asking for the same Power of Attorney 5 times from 5 different people I started to raise flags. My account was handed off to 5 different people and none of them apparently communicate with the previous. After 18 months I have still yet to see them reduce my tax liability by 1 PENNY! And don't fall for their 100% guarantee, this is ABSOLUTEY bogus as well! I have reached out to over 5 people at ATS and have yet to receive a response after 2 weeks! THIS IS A SCAM!! Save your money.

Fake reviews, liars and crooks. If you want to lose your money, maintain your IRS debt and have a miserable year long experience then pick up the phone and call these guys. They will be very nice to you and take your money.
