Fresh Start Initiative Experience

Proven Experience - 4.3 / 5

The information available on Fresh Start Initiative is limited to what appears on the company's website, which only offers customers the option to check for eligibility. Fresh Start Initiative claims to offer assistance from the most experienced tax experts, yet the degree of this assistance and experience will depend wholly on whatever provider the consumer is ultimately paired with.

Fresh Start Initiative Reputation

Solid Reputation - 4.5 / 5

Fresh Start Initiative does not appear to be registered with the BBB, at least not under its copyrighted name, and it does not have a Trustpilot rating. Additionally, the company does not have any feedback from other review websites such as Yelp. This is probably because they aren’t the actual company that consumers interact with, since they connect consumers to other firms. However, Fresh Start Initiative does not appear to be the subject of any litigation or regulatory actions we can find.
