Posting only to try and get attention of QB developers. The mobile deposit option is a nightmare; my tiny bank in my tiny town works better ... and I am forced to *keep* an account at that tiny bank because I have two clients whose checks always result in the "oops, that check cannot be deposited" error on the mobile app.
My account is approved to deposit checks.
These are business checks, both with watermarks and perfectly clear writing, slightly longer than normal personal checks.
I've spoken with support on multiple occasions and they have zero power or knowledge to fix the problem - it simply is the worse mobile deposit I've ever encountered and since it is the ONLY way to deposit checks into QB Bank / GreenDot it makes it even more annoying.
To whomever manages this aspect of the mobile app: *****please get it fixed****** it cannot even hold a check if it's not sure what to do, and like many, I have clients who must pay with a check. It truly is absurd. The first time I contacted support about this was 4 months ago and no one seems to give a ***### that it doesn't work half the time.
Why offer online bank if it cannot complete such a basic tasks? Is the only answer to go back and have everything funnel to my tiny bank in my tiny town? Intuit: you have a freaking football stadium with your name on it - you make billions... you have the resources to fix this problem for your banking customers.
We understand the frustration you're experiencing with the mobile deposit functionality in the QuickBooks mobile app, thisismenotsomeoneelse. This must be challenging, especially since you've carefully followed the endorsement instructions and ensured the correct check details.
Technical issues can occur even when everything seems to be in order, but we'll work together to identify the root cause and find a solution. Your ability to deposit checks smoothly is crucial for your business operations, and we want to make sure you can do so without any difficulties. I've checked our records, and there's no reported case about this one.
To better isolate the issue, are you using the QuickBooks mobile app, Money mobile app, or directly to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account? It'll also be helpful to know how long you've been encountering this error. Any extra information you can provide will be valuable in addressing the problem.
Since you're using the QBO mobile app, let's troubleshoot some issues that may affect its performance. The stored cache might be the culprit, so let's start by clearing the app data. Here are the steps to follow:
For iOS devices
For Android devices:
Uninstalling and reinstalling your QBO app will also help resolve this situation. This ensures a fresh and updated installation of the app's components. For further assistance with reinstalling the program, see this link: How to download the QuickBooks Online mobile app.
If the error continues to occur, we recommend getting in touch with our Customer Support team. They will pull up your account in a secure environment and conduct an in-depth investigation into the error message you're encountering. Here's how:

Appreciate the response, but this is, once again, a boilerplate response that doesn't do anything to solve what is a technical issue with the app itself. As mentioned in my first post, I have done all you suggest already, including contacting support multiple times and they just do the same thing: give boilerplate suggestions without ever doing anything to get the actual software improved, then call or email endlessly asking if it's been solved until I finally ask them to stop pestering me and just fix the problem.
One cannot deposit a check using QB Online - all it does is show the QR ode to download the app - so I'm using the QB Mobile App, and it's the same error from the beginning: 5 months: "Ooops, something went wrong. / Cannot deposit that check." The issue is not isolated and happens to many other people stuck using QB (just search "oops" on the community). This is not an issue customer support can solve with repeating suggestions, it's one that the developers must solve and I'm attempting to finally reach that level so Intuit will finally do something about it.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, @thisismenotsomeoneelse. We fully recognize the impact this issue has had on you, and we are determined to resolve it swiftly and effectively.
Please know that your case has been forwarded to our Next Level Help Team, specialists in managing complex situations. They will review your comments in the Community as well as your recent cases with the live support team to ensure comprehensive understanding and resolution.

We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding throughout this process. If anything else arises, feel free to reach out to the Community.
Still a total failure as an online bank that cannot make simple check deposits. Tried yet again, this time on *both* the usual QB app and the QB Money app and both returned the all-too-familiar "Whooops. Something needs to be fixed" screen followed shortly thereafter with, "We can't deposit this check. Try depositing another check."
All checks we attempt to deposit are standard business checks. Some printed and signed, others entirely by hand. No other banking app on the planet has had this sort of trouble. None of them are questionable in appearance in any way. Once would assume Intuit would at least be a tiny bit embarrassed by now, but at least it's incompetence is keeping my other bank happy because we are yet still forced to keep it open because at least their mobile app can actually make deposits. Honestly, Intuit, with the endless resources you have this should be fixed - a 15 year old I know would be happy do do it for you at a flat rate since none of your developers seem capable.
... yes. I am snarky and annoyed, but it really is absurd: you ought not offer an online banking service it it's not capable of depositing a simple business check.

any luck in getting anyone to respond and fix the issue for you? I have called and explained until I am blue in the face on this subject. I keep getting rerouted to a different department with zero help. I have a check sitting here that the issuer refuses to tend another in my name so that I can finally get paid been fighting with both ends since before Christmas
Unfortunately nothing more than the usual, but one reply alleging the issue would be forwarded someplace that might know what to do. On this end I've also tried both the Money and regular QB app and both continue to give the same 'Whoops, something needs to be fixed" error on every check I've tried, so we continue to have to deposit into a different bank that actually has a working mobile deposit, then transfer to QB Checking to run payroll. Now that it's well into tax season, I'm sure nothing whatsoever will happen; they're too busy fixing all the problems w/ and pushing up-sells on TurboTax online, I imagine, where they make their nut for the year. Wish my company were so large I could release products that don't work and still rake in $16.285 BILLION last year.
@thisismenotsomeoneelse Frankly, and a bit sadly, Intuit's lack of support is probably doing you a favor here by keeping some of your payments out of GreenDot's hands.
GreenDot, to judge by the feedback in this community, is the banking equivalent of the greasy-haired, hunchbacked Royal Advisor of many a fairy tale.
