Hi all,

I'm trying to make a tax payment via PayUSATax using a Chase Business Unlimited credit card and I'm receiving the following error - This card type is not currently accepted. To attempt your payment with an alternative method, please use a different card type or select another payment option under the Payment Information section below. - anyone seen this? Any advice?

Thanks!

Does this seem like fair pricing (lkwd)? It's more than double what I paid last year!

Way overpriced in my opinion. Have you tried doing it yourself online? Pretty simple for a personal return.

no. I'm always afraid of missing out on some rebate/credit/return that isn't worth saving the usual $250 fee

(it’s got a schedule C which is business.)

Define overpriced. There is no such thing as overpriced. You have accountants charging between $75 - $5,000 for a personal return. If you feel he’s not worth his price go to someone cheaper.

Does having an individual bank account with a beneficiary give more fdic coverage even if those 2 people already have a joint account at the same bank?

 I would start by asking them for the breakdown of what they charged per form. If you get that info it would be easier to tell you if it is overpriced.

Define overpriced.
Average price from qualified accountants is 300 and you are charging 650.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

 No two returns are the same, in Lkwd the price is generally per form, and as you can see they did file a bunch of forms for OP. The only way to get an accurate idea is by seeing what they charged per form.

Plenty of accountants charge way more than that. Like lawyers, the spectrum is large.

I asked them, this was their response: "Our billing structure was adjusted for this year, and we are no longer including a breakdown of the per form charges."
