expensive, not worth it. wait the couple weeks to get it.
Don't be like a guy at work and spend $200 to get $75 right now, cause he needed the money then. Guess it might be worth it, if you have a lot coming back and you really need it, but not to me.

The fees are absurdly high. I've personally seen APRs as high a 2,533%, and I've even heard of few folks whose refund was eaten up completely by the fees.
Most of the tax prep mills offer the "service" but I use the term "service" very loosely. If you're about to be evicted or if your children are going hungry, go for it. But anything less urgent than that isn't worth the cost.

You would have to go to each firm and find out. Usually it is based on your refund amount. I know Jackson Hewitt and H & R Block offer them. I think they are not worth it if you can wait. Why give other people your refund when you could use it in other places.

Its usually between 5-10% of your refund check. Which to me is ghastly.
Why cant you wait like the rest of us?
