            This company overcharged me for their services because of my age. Then they did not provide the services they stated. I called asking for a refund and they told me I signed a contract and the scope of the contract is not yet finished. It has been 7 months and I havent seen any results from this company and they did not send me anything until I asked for a refund. I paid them over $8000 and they have not delivered on any of their services that were promised. I am 83 years old, I will be dead before they help me with my tax debt like promised.The transcript attached below is proof they have done nothing with my tax case. Not one update on my case for the past 7 months they have been working on it except the *** stating my debt is one again collectable and Guardian Tax has no protections on my case.

            This is the biggest scam Ive ever come across. This company promised that ALL of my back taxes would be forgiven only to come back and offer to set up an installment payment plan. I could have done that on my own. I paid these people ******* of money I took from my retirement which has left me completely without any emergency funds should something happen to my employment. I cant believe I fell for this. Dont believe the good reviews as those are more than likely preliminary results from the lies they spew in the beginning of the process. Im extremely sick about this.
