Hi there, Hawthorne-Is.
Since you’re seeing the “better connection” banner and the “Updating an expiring connection” screen, and the “Reconnect now” button isn’t responding, which is unusual behavior, I recommend contacting our live support team during their available hours, as they have the right tools to investigate this issue further.
Here’s how:
- Log in to your QuickBooks Online company and click Help (top right).
- In the Search box, enter a brief description of your issue.
- Select Contact Us.
- Click 'Yes,' then choose 'Yes, connect me' to get connected with an expert.

If you have any other questions, please comment below.
