I live in California and had to do my Australian taxes. Utilized H&R Block (Australia). The portal was a pleasure to use and my Tax Professional Shagufta H was a wonderful person to work with. Thank you, Shagufta and H&R Block Australia. Show reply

An Accountant that listens – My accountant at the Crows Nest branch has been handling my tax return since 2023, and I feel in good hands. She has always returned my emails and calls in good time and helped me maximise my return. I highly recommend the Crows Nest branch. Note that I gave a 3/5 score for timeliness. As advised by my accountant, H&R rolled out an update of their system, which caused her delays with the processing of my tax return. Show details ·  1

Return client of many years !! – I have recently had my tax done as I have done so with H&R Block at Lithgow for many years. I return because the staff are friendly, professional and competent. I rebook in with Heather every year and look forward to seeing her, it takes a little of the sting out of the tedious task. I have faith in her experience and knowledge m, which means I will receive the best return possible. Thank you Heather and the team at H&R Block Lithgow. Show reply

I cannot recommend Abdullah Adnan Ahmed highly enough. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel… Read more ·  1

straightforward and easy. His attention to detail and commitment to getting everything right gave me complete confidence that I was in good hands.

What really stood out was his professionalism and genuine willingness to help. It’s rare to come across someone who combines technical expertise with such excellent customer service. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled efficiently and kept me informed every step of the way.

If you’re looking for a tax consultant who is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about delivering the best outcome for their clients, Abdullah Adnan Ahmed is the person to go to. I sincerely appreciate all of his help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing tax advice or assistance.

Thank you again, Abdullah your service was absolutely outstanding.

They are a scam . What is portrayed on their website is not who they are. The Manager at Belmont is just not nice and sympathetic. They gave me someone who throughout the return kept asking his colleague for help to do my tax. Ended up giving me a fine at the end and I said I have to think about this before I lodge my return. The so called boss… Read more

who was pushing the guy to hurry up and move on to the next client came with a fee of $ 209. For what? I get that you spent time with me but being so unempathetic and charging me that fees despite I didn't lodge my return that was cruel and in human . They dont care , they just about the money they get from you. Yet they display on their website expert tax return. Its all a scam. You better off DIY if you can. No iorta of sympathetic or putting themselves in ones shoes. I just walked out of Belmont Vic office and I am very disappointed

Appalling lack of knowledge in relation to allowed deductions for my line of work despite the ATO using my industry as an example. Unfortunately I paid them upfront and as the advisor would not claim my correct deduction I told them not to proceed with filing my return. They would not refund my money.

I was very disappointed with the service I received. The process appears to be geared towards having customers sign and lodge their tax return during the initial appointment, without allowing sufficient time to locate receipts or supporting documentation that could justify additional deductions. When I submitted further receipts within a few days… Read more

of the appointment, my correspondence was ignored. I ultimately had to escalate the matter to the branch manager (multiple calls and emails), then the state office (multiple calls and emails), and finally the national office before even receiving a response. At that point, I was advised that an additional fee would apply to lodge an amended return.

The advertised guarantee that no deductions will be missed feels misleading. Customers are required to sign a waiver, which seems to significantly limit the value of that guarantee.

I was also disappointed by the handling of their complimentary apps, such as Receipt Hub and Spend Tracker. Withdrawing these tools at short notice creates unnecessary inconvenience for customers who rely on them for record-keeping. If an app is being discontinued, it would be far more reasonable to align the change with the start of a new financial year (01-July) and provide several months' advance notice so users can make alternative arrangements.

Also expect a lot of spam emails from them. There is no specific OPT-IN process, they just subscribe you.

I'm loving the new add. Nooot. Ppl get 24% discount on their tax returns lollllll. I have to pay over $300 for business and I'm a tiny business owner not working that much and still they whack me $300. Probably gone up since I started doing my tax myself. One size fits all is not good for h & r block. Ridiculous.

I contacted H & R block to make an appointment. Joy Paterson is closest to my location at Carindale in Brisbane. She gave me a time slot for the very next day despite it being the busiest time of the year for doing tax returns. Joy was so helpful and efficient. She is also very friendly. She took all of the stress and worry out of tax time for me, and I really appreciate her professionalism. Thank you Joy. Thank you H & R Block. Show reply

Incorrect lodgement timing advice and incredibly poor communication after I emailed in March with no reply, then was told in April my FY25 return could be lodged under a May timeline. ATO later showed April due date with interest applied due to it being treated as overdue, and I was informed the correct due date was 31 March. Charged $519 for a… Read more

simple return despite “from $109” pricing. Overall very poor value and misleading guidance.

Would not recommend H&R block and especially Five Dock branch to anyone.

incompetent office. I actually don’t like doing this ! but it has to be said. Seriously go elsewhere, Professionals… Don’t make me laugh ! Rotating door of accountants that have done a crash course in accounting. I could go into more detail but hopefully this is enough to get point across. Go to a more reputable Tax agency. Do yourselves a favour.
