This company gave me poor advice and service! They never gave any indication of charges or supplied a written contract. I was advised that there would be little or no IRS to pay for 2007. I got a bill for €435 from the IRS as well as a bill for €426 from the company. I would have thought an illustration of my tax liabilty could have been provided. Several basic errors regarding my circumstances were made. 18 months after my business was concluded ( I thought) with this company, I received a court order to pay a further €179 of which I was unware, for services relating to the initial instruction. This company were recommended by Blevins Franks. I am very disappointed with them for not checking Tax Solutions method of business.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I was a victim of this company also, look at this article that I found,
MIAMI TAX RETURN PREPARER SENTENCED FOR FILING FALSE TAX RETURNS AND AGGRAVATED IDENTITY THEFT
Jeffrey H. Sloman, Acting United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Daniel W. Auer, Special Agent in Charge, Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Division, and Michael K. Fithen, Special Agent in Charge, U.S. Secret Service, announced that defendant Gary Bart Rosenfeld, 53, of Miami, was sentenced today before U.S. District Court Judge Alan S. Gold on tax and identity theft charges. Defendant Rosenfeld was sentenced to 36 months’ imprisonment, to be followed by 1 year of supervised release. In addition, the Court ordered restitution in the amount of $200, 843. Rosenfeld also faces the forfeiture of assets accumulated from his illegal activities. Rosenfeld previously pled guilty to aiding in the filing of a false tax return, in violation of Title 26, United States Code, Section 7206(2), and aggravated identity theft, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1028A(a)(1).
According to court documents, defendant Rosenfeld operated a tax return preparation business, Taxing Solutions, Inc., in Miami, FL, from 2004 to 2007. In 2005, Rosenfeld began filing fraudulent income tax returns for others, in which he misrepresented wages, income and withholding amounts, and fabricated tuition payments, education credits and childcare expenses on his clients’ tax returns. The tax loss totals $177, 588. Court documents reflect that, for tax year 2006, Rosenfeld filed numerous tax returns for his clients in which he directed the tax refunds to be paid to the taxpayer by refund anticipation loans on access device cards, without the taxpayer’s knowledge and consent. A refund anticipation loan is money borrowed by a taxpayer based on the taxpayer’s anticipated income tax refund. Rosenfeld provided his clients with tax returns showing that the refunds would be deposited into a bank account of their choice via direct deposit, but subsequently altered the tax returns to request refund anticipation loans prior to filing the tax returns with the IRS. Rosenfeld then withdrew the refund anticipation loan funds from automatic teller machines in Miami. In addition, Rosenfeld prepared and filed tax returns on behalf of other individuals without their permission. >>> Mr. Sloman commended the investigative efforts of the Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Division, and the U.S. Secret Service. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kelly S. Karase.

I have used this company before and cannot disagree with you so profoundly, I found them extremely professional, accurate and friendly. There seems to be some confusion with the companies, I am refering to tax saolutions in the Algarve. They are in my view point the best credibable fiscal counsultancy company in the area.
I disagree with the complain on this web site reported, I too have used this company in the Algarve Portugal. Their fees are very proportional to the services provided, in fact I found that for the work they provided me it was well under the fees I would pay in the UK. In the client waiting area there was a price list display for all their services. I believe the complain made against this company does not reflect the company I know thus disgree.
