    Current Alerts For This Business

    Pattern of Complaint:
    As of August of 2021, BBB has received an influx of complaints from consumers alleging that they arrived at this business website(s) while trying to research/ access the official IRS website. Complaints also allege that the business charges a costly fee for a service that is offered free of charge, at the IRS.

    BBB is awaiting a response from the business addressing these concerns, as complaints are pending.
    Alert:
    BBB Investigation Results:
    In January 2023, Hill Group Investments came to the attention of BBB due to a spike in inquiries and complaints against the related business, Tax ID Support, regarding advertising issues and unexpected charges, which prompted an investigation and ad review challenge.

    Consumer complaints alleged that Tax ID Support’s  website(s) misled them into thinking they were submitting an application for an EIN number with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Instead, it was a third party service that charges a service fee of $250 though it can be obtained at no charge through the IRS.

    BBB was able to find a business registration authorizing the company to do business in Texas and a physical location of 295 Aidyn Ln. Longview, TX 75605 Registered to J & K Hill Holdings.


    Kevin and Justin Hill, owners of J & K Hill Holdings, H2 Investments, and Hill Group Investments are also associated with:

    The email address H2Investments30@outlook.com also linked to other Tax ID services such as Choice Filings and Express Form Filings as well as John Hill of Document Filings, LLC (EIN Tax ID, Tax Service Pro). .

    In January 2023, BBB sent correspondence to Hill Group Investments at H2Investments30@outlook.com, requesting voluntary cooperation in eliminating the identified pattern of complaints regarding consumer confusion as to whether the business is affiliated with government agencies, and lack of clarity regarding company's pricing.
    As of February 24, 2023, Hill Group Investments has failed to respond to BBB's inquiries but continues to answer complaints referring back to the disclaimers located at the bottom of the page.

    BBB encourages consumers to not be fooled by lookalike websites by:
    *Double checking the URL before entering any personal and payment information
    *Going directly to the Internal Revenue Service website to apply for an EIN number

    Pattern of Complaints:
    On January 24th, BBB notified Hill Group Investments of an identified pattern in consumer complaints alleging that consumers were confused as to whether the business is affiliated with government agencies and lack of clarity regarding the company's pricing.

    BBB requested the company's voluntary cooperation in eliminating the identified pattern of complaints by modifying the company's web page to ensure disclosures are clear and conspicuous enough to avoid deception.

    As of February 24, 2023 Hill Group Investments has failed to address the pattern of complaints.

    They charge $250 to find you an EIN. The IRS issues EINs for free. This is a scam. Now I am concerned about my personal information in the wrong hands! Please shut this organization down
