Negative Reviews
While there are many positive reviews of StopIRSDebt.com, most of the reviews in 2019 have been negative. The biggest complaints we’ve seen for STopIRSDebt.com are…
- Cost. Many customers feel that the fees for StopIRSDebt.com are too high. People report paying as little as $1,200 and as much as $6,900 – sometimes up front. Try to get price estimates from multiple companies before choosing one to help with your tax debt.

User Score00 people found this review helpful!IRS figured my 2014 taxes incorrectly sending me a refund followed by a notice that there had been a mistake in my taxes and I owe $22,000.00 .Hired StopIRSDebt.com and informed by one of their employee approximately 10 minutes ago and I quote ” the IRS did Not fill out my taxes”, repeated more than once. Never have taken kindly to being called a liar. I’ve been taught , point the finger at someone, your pointing 3 back at yourself. Further more, they don’t work on your case for 10 months after you hire them while they collect your money for this service all the while racking up more interest for you to owe to the IRS.Was this review helpful?

User Score01 people found this review helpful!This is the worse company I have ever dealt with. They just want your money and they don’t care if you get your taxes taken care of. The customer service is a joke and if you think your dealing with attorneys your not. They are data pushers and they don’t fight for you. Your better of doing it yourself. Go to IRS.gov and type in search box OIC booklet and it will explain how to deal with the IRS. The IRS are a lot nicer to deal with instead of these clowns. #stopirssucksWas this review helpful?

User Score03 people found this review helpful!Horrible service, promise reduction in debt and only added to it with their costs. After I requested to cancel the service, they started to ignore my emails and calls. This service doesn’t provide anything that a tax payer can’t do themselves. Months after requesting a refund, I’m still waiting and pursuing legal action.Was this review helpful? YesRead More

User Score04 people found this review helpful!We Paid $4200 for services and Nothing was done. They lied and said they stepped in and negotiated a settlement with the IRS Attorney for our 2013 Audit. I called the IRS Attorney and she verified that she NEVER Talked to them and that she would not have. We were told we would get a breakdown of services and that it would take 5-7 business days. We waited 3 months and Nothing. I send emails and have called and get no response from them unless I post a bad review and then when I asked for a response in regards to the refund options they wanted to discuss. NOTHING!! Ultimately we ended up paying the IRS $13,139.88. We were told they were going to handle our 2013 and 2014 Audits and amend our 2015 and 2016 taxes. None of this was done. We will continue to post negative reviews until they do the right thing and give us a refund because they DID NOT do what they said they were going to do.Was this review helpful? YesRead More

User Score02 people found this review helpful!These people have a tendency to forget who the CUSTOMER is in their business dealings. If you call their offices, you will be put on hold indefinitely. Any correspondence sent to you via email is sent at an obscure time, so it may be a day or 2 before you will discover you have received an email from them.
They settled my case with IRS with no prior notification to me. I received a letter from IRS informing me of this settlement; at a monthly rate I cannot afford, after being told by their “salesman” that I would dictate the amount I would pay on a monthly basis back to IRS. The reason I cannot afford this monthly payment is because a few weeks prior to me receiving this letter from IRS; they contacted me via telecom and informed be the amount I owed IRS was more than they had initially figured, and that I owed them an additional $1500. Not knowing they had already settled my case, I agreed to the $1500 paid over a 6 month installment. They were very quick to get the contract for me to sign and return. My original contract payments totaling $2500.00 ended on 10/18. After contacting their “accounting dept.” which after numerous attempts I never got through to them to work out an additional payment agreement I could afford, a very rude young lady named “Susan” got on the phone and informed me “you CAN afford to pay this, we have you financials and we know what your expenses are”.
After this 2nd installment I will have paid these shysters over $4,000.00, not including the extra $300 I paid them to do my 2017 tax return. DO NOT CONTACT THESE PEOPLE TO SETTLE YOUR IRS ISSUES, hire a tax attorney or accountant at half the price and get REAL results.

User Score12 people found this review helpful!I paid this company thousands of dollars. The last contact I had was when one of their employees called me and said there were additional years that needed done. I told her to let me know what I had to pay and I just wanted it taken care of. After many attempts to contact them I recently spoke to an executive that said my account was closed. She said they had mailed me something that needed signed and never got it back. I told her I never received it. At that point she said she was on anothr call and would get back to me. That was last week. I have checked old emails, text and phone messages, and apparently I am using the wrong number because there isnt anything there.Was this review helpful? YesRead More

User Score43 people found this review helpful!They are good with knowing the IRS forms and helping set up payment plans, but their customer service is horrible, they simply won’t answer questions on a so called, one on one, it gets confusing at times, all the forms etc. and when you ask them for help, they simply don’t answer. Also, they don’t tell you when they are , final, with you or how your case is going. If you call them, you will get the “run around” and usually they say they will send you an email but don’t count on it. They must be a big business and I would guess, work better with someone who has Big money problems, I owe the IRS about 5 grand but paid StopIRS almost 2 grand, and I think they are done with me as they havent answered none of my questions in the last couple of months, I havent skipped no payments and still owe them a few hundred , they do let you set up automatic payments. Would I use them again ? Not sure, can’t answer that now.Was this review helpful? YesRead More

At times, I might have been a pain in the butt, but I am happy that they never let me down.

User Score02 people found this review helpful!Was told by sales rep that I had a great case and they should be able to resolve this easily, and that most settlements were for 1% of the money owed. After 3 yrs the contacted me and said there was nothing that could be done since I had assets. Thus, I paid my tax liability including 3 years of accumulated interest. Add the $4,500 I paid Stop IRS debt and it would have been cheaper just to have paid the original amount. When I asked them about the 1% settlement they stated that was for people with zero money and no assets.Was this review helpful? YesRead More

User Score02 people found this review helpful!This is a complete scam. I was in a payment plan prior to contacting StopIRSDebt.com. After 5 months, they were “successfully” able to negotiate a payment plan in the exact amount I had prior set up. So now, I am 5 months behind on payments to the IRS where I would of been on my own. And I’m out the amount of money I sent to these scam artists. They have terrible communication after the first initial contacts to get you signed up. It took 3 emails and 4 phone messages to finally hear back from someone. I DO NOT recommend this company. It is a waste of time and money only to set you back extra time and payments towards your actual debt.Was this review helpful? YesRead More

User Score02 people found this review helpful!As soon as I signed and paid, the person who did my consultation and intake disappeared from contact. One day he says that we are going to be talking often; the next and the next no response to emails or calls. Two weeks or so later, I got an email from a new person saying she would be working with me. In a few days, same thing. For every 10 emails I sent, I got 0-1. Then, I got a statement from .CA tax board, saying I owed thousands for a year I did not work or owe, and it threatened a bank levy. First if all, why was I getting this threat when StopIRSDebt was supposed to halt any potential action? Second, why was I being threatened for a debt I did not owe?! If StopIRSDebt had even just answered my frantic calls or emails, and looked into this, it would have certainly been resolved and dismissed as an error. Later, on my own, I was able to make CA realize it was a mistake, but by then it was too late as CA FTB had levied tens of thousands from my bank account. Once they knew it was an error they were reimbursing me, but IRS intercepted all of it. It was treated like a tax refund instead of a mistake. I had had a “currently non collectible” status, AND- once again, StopIRSDebt had not done anything about addressing the IRS either!Was this review helpful? YesRead More
- Takes your existing debt and try to settle with your creditors for a lower amount. If you pay off the settled amount, your debt will be considered paid in full.
- Negotiates with your creditors on your behalf.
- Fee based on a percentage of your total starting debt or a percentage of the debt they save you.
- Most settlement companies have you create a separate "escrow" account where you will make monthly contributions over a certain amount of time to contribute to your settlement. Once there is a substantial amount of funds to show your creditors, the settlement company will try to negotiate a lower amount of debt.
- Combines all your debts and creditors into one monthly payment.
- Allows you to pay one monthly payment to the consolidation company, instead of multiple payments to different creditors.
- You no longer owe your original creditors; instead you pay one monthly payment to your consolidation company.
- Consolidation companies can help negotiate lower interest rates on your debts and help lower your total debt payment in the long run. A lower interest rate will lower the amount you owe in the end.
- Allows you to consolidate all your different debts into one personal loan that can be paid off over time.
- Can offer borrowers a lower interest rate with a longer payback term (compared to high-interest credit cards or medical bills). This will lower the amount of money required to pay off the loan over time.
- Personal loan debt consolidation can be an effective way to raise your credit score quickly (within 3-6 months).
- Borrowers can receive funds from their loan within only a few days.
