Let me help with your deposit, j.mdesigns.
If a deposit has been withheld, it means that something in the batch that comprises the deposit raised a red flag. It also means that our Risk Management Team is conducting an investigation on your behalf.
A deposit may be withheld for various reasons, Most of the time, they caused by these are two primary reasons:
Security concerns with one or more transactions in the deposit
The deposit exceeds a predefined account threshold (approved monthly amount or average individual charge)
You can also prevent future hold or review by avoiding unusual activities that include:
If a transaction is placed on hold, an email will be sent to the email address you use to sign in to the Merchant Service Center. It contains specific instructions on how to resolve the issue.
Here's an article about this for more details: Why Are My Funds On Hold?.
You can also reach out to our Merchant Support Team. They can review the transaction and give you updates. Here's an article as a guide: Contact Payments or Point of Sale Support.

Hi j.mdesigns,
Hope you’re doing great. I wanted to see how everything is going about the deposits being on hold. Was it resolved? Do you need any additional help or clarification? If you do, just let me know. I’d be happy to help you at anytime.
Looking forward to your reply. Have a pleasant day ahead!
No they are still on hold. I think because I cancelled qb cash and went back to my bank only. Can someone please help? I haven't received any emails on how to resolve, I was on hold yesterday for hours.... My bank is listed again to put deposits in.
Experiencing a deposit on hold is tough to deal with, sharibuildology2.
I appreciate the time and effort in contacting our support agents. I'll personally share your feedback with our Customer Support Team about this one. We'll be able to take action on improving our customer service.
You'll get an email at the email address you use to sign in to the Merchant Service Center. We can try checking the registered email address on file, sign in to the Merchant Service Center. Then, select the Account tab and then Account Profile. Once we have everything, the review will be completed within 2 business days. After the review, we can finish processing the payment. You can also check the Spam Folder or refresh your email address for the email we sent to you.
If the same thing happens, I recommend contacting our QuickBooks Payments Support Team. They'll pull up your account in a secure environment and help you with this one.

my deposit is on hold. i paid an invoice to myself, quickbooks suspended my account for suspicious activity, will not refund my money and on the merchant center page, when i click to reverse the transaction, it says i do not have the permissions to do this. i call quick books and an agent tried guiding me through it online and when the message kept popping (that i do not have the permission), he said he needed to submit a ticket on my behalf. I dont know how long i takes, i just want the money refunded immediately, i have no desire to use this app again
My deposits have been on hold for days. I still have not recieved the email from merchant center. Im going on week 2. I need this mobey to pay bills and buy stock. If i get told 2-3 buisness days one more time i might have a massive heart attack. Its over 1000 bucks which today is a lot of money for me for my side buisness. What is up qb?
Locked out of accepting future credit card payments without explanation and withholding $102,000+ in deposits going on two months now! Insanity!! When do we get our money?
QB has withheld my deposits and I have received NO EMAIL from them as to how do I resolve this issue. I have looked through all my emails from QB and do not find anything in them that suggests that they notified me about this. I have called QB and been put on hold for 2 hours but did not get a chance to speak to a representative. I cannot understand how can this happen.
I am an Attorney and these payments also include money that I hold in trust on behalf of my clients. I can seriously sue QB for this.
Hi, @Khandelwalaw.
We all want to get paid as soon as possible, and I feel that delays can be disappointing when you're expecting the payments.
We send out an email containing the instructions on how to resolve the Deposit on hold status. I recommend checking your email inbox (the one you registered with Merchant Services).
The system places deposits on hold to ensure nothing happens to it during processing. For more details about this, you can check this article: Why are my funds on hold?.
I would also recommend contacting our support if you need more help resolving the hold status (or if you haven't received an email yet). They'll pull up your account securely and process the necessary documents to release the funds.
Here's how to reach them:

I appreciate your patience as we ensure your payments are processed properly. I'm willing to hear you out again if you have other concerns with Merchant Services or QuickBooks Online.
Thank you for your response. I did not receive any email from QB when the deposits were placed on hold. That is my biggest grievance right now. Can you please tell me what is the subject matter/headline for the email? I have searched many many times, but did not find anything in my mail box.
I understand that this has been a source of frustration for you, Khandelwalaw.
The subject line of the email about the on-hold deposits may vary, but it usually relates to the specific action taken. I can see that you've already checked your mailbox thoroughly. To enhance your chances of finding the message, I recommend entering our official service email addresses into the criteria. This will help refine your search.
Sometimes, the system filters can mistakenly categorize important messages as spam or promotional content. It's possible that the email has been filtered and ended up in a different folder. Make sure to review every area to ensure that you don't miss any communications from us.
If you're able to locate the email from there, please mark it as not spam or move it to your primary inbox. Then, add our email addresses to your contacts or whitelist to prevent future notifications from being filtered out.
However, if you can't find one, I recommend reaching out to our Customer Care Team through this link: Contact QB Merchant. This way, we can resend it and guide you on the next steps to resolve the situation.
Generally, you'll be asked to supply additional information, such as a copy of the original invoice you sent to your customer, to finalize the review process. Once we have received all the necessary documents, the assessment is normally completed within 2 business days. After that, we'll proceed with processing the payment.
