Buy nowI do computer support for multiple companies and have my own Intuit Account.
I have Company S which made me an authorized user on their Intuit Account years ago. I can see my name in their list of Authorized Users.
Company G recently made me an authorized user on their Intuit Account. Since doing this, Company G has access to the Intuit Account of both Company S and Company G. When Company G switches over to Company S, it shows (me) next to my email address in Authorized Users even though they are logged in as [email address removed].
When I am signed in as my email, I don't see Company G or Company S.
I contacted Intuit support several time now and they explained that this was all normal and expected.
In order to make this issue go away, I signed into the Intuit account of Company S, but ran into a different issue. [email address removed] is listed as both the primary contact and as an Authorized User. The (me) is next to the Authorized User. I can't make any security changes since it is not the Primary Contact account, even though the email is correct.
I consider this a pretty serious security problem on the Intuit side, but support doesn't see it that way. I am not sure what to do from here. Company S is not happy that Company G can see their account information. Intuit doesn't care. What do I do from here?
Hi there, @DeanSil.
Do you see Company G as an authorized user for Company S when signing in to your Intuit account? Authorized users are individuals who have access to the company's account information. To remove a user from the list, log in to My Account (CAMPS) as a primary admin.
Here's how:
For your reference, check out this guide: Add, edit, and remove authorized user in My Account (CAMPS).
Keep me posted on how these steps turn out. I want to make sure everything is taken care of.
Thank you for your reply. I really appreciate it.
I am going to try to add some clarity and hope that you can confirm what I should do.
I am [email address removed].
Company G has [email address removed] as a primary user and [email address removed] as an Authorized User.
Company S has [email address removed] as a primary user and as an Authorized User. [email address removed] as an Authorized user. When [email address removed] is signed in, the (me) shows up next to the Authorized User rather than the primary.
When user@companyG is logged in, they have access to CompanyS. When the access it, the (me) is next to [email address removed].
I am unable to remove [email address removed] from CompanyS as we can't get authenticated as a Primary User. I don't have access anyway. When logged in as [email address removed], I don't see Company S or Company G.
I am hoping to connect with [email address removed] to remove [email address removed] from Company G, although I don't expect that will help.
I have a feeling that I need to remove [email address removed] from Company S even though that doesn't make sense to me. Unfortunately, it sees [email address removed] as an Authorized rather than Primary.
Thanks for getting back with the Community, DeanSil.
Since there's an invalid primary admin/contact on some of these accounts, I'd recommend sending a request to update their information.
Here's how:
After submitting your request, it will be reviewed as soon as possible. You'll receive an email with its status when Intuit's review is complete.
Please feel welcome to send a reply if there's any questions. Have a great day!
