Allow me to share some info about the Master Admin claim in QuickBooks Online (QBO). If you're going to transfer the master admin role to an existing QBO user, you may follow the steps below:
In the User Type column choose the user you want to be the master admin, select Edit to transfer the role to them.
Click the small arrow in the Action column to the right of the user. Then, choose Make master admin.
For security, we send a verification code to the phone number or email on file for your account. When you receive the verification code, enter it, and hit Continue.
In the window, tap Make master admin to confirm that you want to make the change.
Go to Settings and tick Sign Out to sign out as the current master admin.
When the user gets the invitation email, ask them to click the link and accept the invitation.
Also, here's a helpful article that you can open to know more about managing users in your QBO account: User types and user permissions.
Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you about the master admin claim in QuickBooks. I've got your back and am always willing to help. Take care always.
I need to resubscribe to my QuickBooks Online account, but I’m unable to complete the process because my current account indicates that I do not have access to the subscription.
The primary admin email I used is no longer accessible, which is preventing me from managing the subscription. I understand that changing the master admin is necessary to resubscribe. I have already submitted a request to change the admin, but unfortunately, it has been declined several times. Meanwhile, the subscription is almost expired, and I am unable to make any updates in our account.
This situation is quite frustrating, and I need to resubscribe immediately. Could you please advise the best solution to resolve this issue as quickly as possible?
I understand how frustrating this must be for you. Managing your subscription without access to the primary admin email, especially with the subscription nearing expiration, is challenging.
Since you have submitted a request already and been declined several times. Please check your email for any notification indicating the reasons why the request was unapproved and the next steps you can take. Then, you’ll need to fill out the form again and upload all of the required documents for your security. You can check the status of your request at any time.
In case the request would still be denied. I recommend contacting our Live Support team. They can offer step-by-step guidance ensuring you get the most accurate solution and assistance. (Note: You can create QuickBooks online test account if you have no available account.)
