I am sharing my concerns regarding recent billing and service issues with Eric Kauppila of Seattle Tax Accountants. I have had two consultations with Eric Kauppila. During our first meeting in 2024, I was charged a rate of $180 per hour. However, for our most recent consultation a year later, I was billed for two hours despite the meeting lasting less than one hour. Furthermore, the hourly rate increased to $350. When I inquired about this change, Mr. Kauppila was unwilling to explain the significant increase and did not reply, so here we are. Additionally, I found the consultation unsatisfactory as Mr. Kauppila was unable to answer basic questions regarding the purchase and sale of a vehicle, which was the primary purpose of our meeting. He also shared unsolicited political opinions regarding transgender bathrooms during our session. Professional consultations should remain focused on the services being paid for, and I found these comments extremely inappropriate. Do better Eric.
