taxes or death? I'll take death, please

I just have to say that the Internal Revenue Service is the most evil organization on the face of the planet.

they made me cry today.

I've been trying to get through to them for two days, but finally today I got a really horrid woman on the phone who was giving me incorrect information and wouldn't help me to understand anything. And when I asked her for clarification, and got a bit frustrated and admittedly angry (who wouldn't?), she hung up on me.

then I tried calling again and got a message that there were technical difficulties and my call couldn't be handled at this time.

they told me that a mistake was made on my amended return but they won't help me.

what am I supposed to do?

If it makes you feel any better I'm a tax preparer for H&R and when we call for clients they treat us like shit 90% of the time too. *hugs* Also double check anything they tell you I've spent plenty of time at work correcting their errors then calling and explaining their mistakes to them. Don't even start me. I'm sorry they are being evil to you.

thanks for the support - that helps to know that. but it doesn't help that I had the amended return done professionally and now the IRS is telling me that there is a mistake and that I'm not getting the money I'm owed, etc. I can't get a hold of my preparer either.
*sigh*
well I guess the only consolation is that the IRS will always find you, and they will surely be sending me something in the mail. so i guess I wait.
