### 2/5 — Too long

*2025-03-30, version 2.3.182*

The process of creating an account, then answering question after question, takes longer than just filling out one sheet of paper and putting into an envelope. Not worth it

### 2/5 — Fees

*2023-10-19, version 2.2.1*

Fees are different than if I paid over the phone but I was unable to pay over the phone with the account number given.

### 1/5 — Taxation without representation

*2023-09-20, version 2.2.1*

U sick men r stealing my money I hate you , Kys

### 1/5 — Convenience fee

*2023-09-18, version 2.2.1*

I am not happy about the convenience fee.  I might as well just pay my taxes late.  It would be cheaper!

### 1/5 — Not user friendly.

*2023-09-11, version 2.2.1*

Need to be able to take an image of bills and load the information in for the user. App is very far behind the curve.

### 1/5 — Unnecessary charges

*2023-09-11, version 2.2.1*

It is unbelievable that in order to pay my per capital tax I had to pay a extra fee to pay online. This is wrong and unethical. If there is a no fee way to do it, it is hidden.

### 1/5 — Fees

*2023-09-10, version 2.2.1*

It is utterly ridiculous that a company is allowed to charge fees to collect payment on credit or debit card transactions for taxes required by the government.

### 4/5 — A good start

*2023-09-05, version 2.2.1*

A nice app, which intends to streamline sending necessary document securely.  However, having the ability to upload PDFs would be a lot easier than snapping pics.

### 1/5 — Berkheimer is the worst.

*2023-09-04, version 2.2.1*

Terrible organization with no service.  Time to replace these clowns with a better name and better organization.

### 1/5 — We care

*2023-09-01, version 2.2.1*

If you care you should have a how to video that reflects reality. There is no “bill number” on the bill. The account number is in the wrong format. You must get to pocket all the late fees so create barriers to pay. Great service!

### 3/5 — QR code

*2023-08-30, version 2.2.1*

I could NOT find where to scan the QR code to pay

### 1/5 — Tax

*2023-08-28, version 2.2.1*

I’ve tried to call this company and also email this to ask a question. They
Have no phone number available or an email.  I call that very poor service by Berkheimer.  Just take your money.

### 1/5 — Hi

*2023-08-25, version 2.2.1*

I’m paying a bill I don’t anything about and I have no detail about it. But woe is me if I don’t pay it lol

### 4/5 — The convince fee is too high

*2023-08-09, version 2.2.1*

Convince fee is more then 3x price of a stamp

### 3/5 — Fees are rediculous

*2023-08-09, version 2.2.1*

Crazy expensive fees and added cost - about 20% adder to my tax bill

### 1/5 — Berkheimer

*2023-08-08, version 2.2.1*

$2.00 fee to use your card is ridiculous! This is an electronic world. It’s been proven that it costs anywhere between $50-100 to process a check. So instead they charge us to use our card. Ridiculous! Any way to make more money off the taxpayers. It’s a part of doing business Berkheimer!

### 1/5 — Service fee  :(

*2023-08-08, version 2.2.1*

I hate service fees. I want to pay early but I’d rather mail a check in then pay a service fee. Please remove that fee!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Booooo!

*2026-06-11, version 2.3.247*

Not a fan. Berkheimer deserves 0 stars.

### 1/5 — Constant Login Issues

*2026-04-13, version 2.3.229*

Can never login on the app but, the website works 100% of the time. Such a joke of an app.

### 1/5 — Why Have an app

*2025-10-04, version 2.3.215*

Basic features like setting up account. Entering address should not be this difficult. Makes absolutely no sense

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-04-13, version 2.3.182*

This app is a waste of space. Only good for single filers for years and hasn’t updated

### 1/5 — This app is 2000 and late

*2024-07-06, version 2.3.1*

The app is 4 years old but still has a warning that it is new and won’t support everything. Basic modern features are missing such as moving to the next text box when the expect number of digits are entered and Apple Pay. Then they have the nerve to charge a 20% convenience fee.

### 1/5 — High processing fees and endless fill in the blanks

*2024-01-16, version 2.3.1*

Nothing like a $2 processing fee to send a $4.50 transaction via ACH. 

As a millennial that hardly ever uses mail, this app is decidedly worse than snail mail. 

 You still have to manually fill out each field listed on your paper bill just to look up what you owe, because apparently they don’t link your account with your outstanding bills automatically.  I’d expect better from a company that gets cuts on all tax revenue in PA.

### 1/5 — Mean

*2024-01-13, version 2.3.1*

I feel like I’m being targeted by Berkheimer

### 1/5 — Really difficult

*2023-12-10*

Every time I get a bill from Berkheimer for the local taxes the app asks for information that’s not on the bill. 

I got a bill that says the amount and that I can pay by app and website but then ask for account numbers that aren’t on the printed bill. 

Berkheimer are disgusting.

### 1/5 — Blood sucking beurocratic vampires

*2023-10-13, version 2.2.1*

Screw Berkheimer

### 1/5 — EFFEW

*2023-10-10, version 2.2.1*

### 5/5 — Paying taxes

*2023-09-21, version 2.2.1*

The app is very easy to use. The only downfall is thing is being charged $2.00 for convenience fee to pay through the app. Times are tough nowadays, pay rates don’t go up-but the bills do.
