I have taken on a new client whose old accountant held their licence. They have cancelled the client on their billing licence. Now my client can’t add me as their billing subscription as it just comes up with an error message. Has anyone encountered this?

Welcome to the Community, @karenkennedy.
Your client needs to reactivate their QuickBooks Online account so they can add you as their accountant. I'd be pleased to walk you through how to do this.
To invite an account in QBO, you need to have an active account. Know that in order to resubscribe your QuickBooks, you need to log in with your master admin access. If your client doesn't have this access, they may reach out to their previous accountant to transfer the role.

Thanks @BettyJaneB the previous accountant said they transferred master admin back to the client. However, when the client logs in they just get an error message now. They don’t really want to have to talk to the old accountant either.
Is it possible from someone at QB to look on the account and see if my client does indeed have master admin and why an error message might be coming up?
