The assistance provided was beyond expectations. This was my first time doing it, and their support stayed with me until everything was completed. It took me longer because I was multitasking and they waited whileI was getting other things done. Thank you! The best service I have ever received from any phone support.
I've been with them for just under a year. They are good people who conduct business in a professional manner. they stay on top of trending news in the trucking industry and use that knowledge to better serve their customers. I like the family atmosphere and the first-name basis. pricing for services is lower than the industry standard , I think I'll stay right here.
I have been using Simple Truck Tax for six years now to file our yearly 2290. It is simple to use, and they file it quickly. I have a login, and it is easy to add and remove trucks. They remember my information, so I don't have to upload it again the following year. I definitely recommend their 2290 service.
