Has Anyone Else Completely Lost Faith In The Government?

My problem is that its their process and it was paid on the due date. I should not be hit with a penality because they process payments the following day. The rude service I have received from the people working at the IRS is something I have also never experienced in the past.

It's no different than your tax filing. If the envelope is post marked the date of the tax deadline, it's not late. I don't see why they aren't giving you this credit. It's robbery to say the least.

That's how I feel. Good luck with your issue.

No luck. I'm stuck paying a $897 fee for their stupidity. The IRS can go **** themselves.

Yes, I spoke to them on the phone today. Tough shit is about appropriate. She was polite, but acted like she couldn't do anything. Now whether it's because she didn't have the power to is one thing.....or maybe she didn't feel like doing jack shit. Either way, the IRS are a bunch of crooks.

You should ask for a supervisor and tell them you want to appeal.

They should probably cut you a break, but at the same time if they are up front about the fact payments are processed the following day you're kinda SOL.

Yeah, it's rough on that front. I still don't understand why banks can't do instant transactions at this point in life. I learned the hard way paying a bill the day it was due, but it took 3 days to 'process' and I got hit with a late fee because of it.

Just the way the ACH works I guess.
