Hi there, @jakebanderson321.
Welcome to the Community. Let me address your deposit concern so you can get back to business.
When something unexpected occurs in your transaction(s), a hold may be placed on the funds. Here are some common reasons for holds:
To get more details in handling deposits on hold in QuickBooks Online, please check out these articles:
Also, credit card deposit takes 1-2 business days to reach your bank while bank transfers (ACH) can take 2-7 business days. This can also be the reason why it's still showing on hold since it hasn't been deposited to the bank. However if it exceeds the given the length of time since the payment was made, I recommend contacting the QuickBooks Payments Support Phone Team. This team is the best resource for such inquiries, as they're able to request account information to pull up your company and share sensitive information. They'll be able to further assist with determining the details of the transaction and why it is still on hold.
This should get you moving today, @jakebanderson321. Don't hesitate to let me know if I can be of additional assistance. Cheering your business to continued success.
Hello, thank you for the information. However, this doesn't really answer my question.
As I mention, the deposit has already been made to the account. That was last month, so I already worked through all of the steps with the payments/merchant services group.
I then followed up with them yesterday, and they mentioned that since it is the QBO application showing the notification even though QBO also registers and shows that the money has been deposited I should work with the QBO team. I've talked to numerous QBO assistants, and no one has an answer.
I simply want the deposits to no longer say "Deposit on hold" in the invoices screen. My account shows that the funds were deposited in the transactions. How do I change those notifications?
Hi there, @jakebanderson321.
I appreciate you providing details of your issue and how the call went. I can help you out with this and resolve the deposit saying "Deposit on hold".
In order for the notification to update, you will have to disconnect the invoice from its payment and delete it. After that, re-create the deleted invoice (don't send it to Payments), and link it back to the original payment.
That should re-establish the recording of your transactions in QuickBooks. I'm sure that after following the steps above, you won't see the "Deposit on hold" on the invoices screen.
Keep me posted if you have follow up concerns about QBO. I'd be happy to help you more. Wishing you all the best.
Hello, this did not work. I recreated it and it immediately re-stated that the new invoice was on hold.
How do I fix this? I feel like this shouldn't be that hard.

Hello, thank you for the insight. I actually have already gone through 3 separate conversations (2 with screen shares) regarding this issue. No one has had the answer, which is part of the reason I initially posted on here. I've tried both the Payments and QBO help center.
Greetings, jakebanderson321.
I appreciate all of your efforts for trying to resolve this issue. Allow me to join this thread and provide additional clarification regarding the deposit on hold.

Please feel free to get in touch with me here for any additional questions, I always have your back. Thanks for dropping in and have a wonderful rest of your week.
OK, this problem was in January. Now it is October 2019. I have the same problem, too. Can you please let us in on the secret regarding how to delete these inaccurate, annoying, false, bad-accounting notices about "DEPOSITS ON HOLD" by Merchant Services that are not on hold? Remember, QUICKBOOKS+MERCHANT SERVICES put it there. This is your service. This is not my mistake.
Regarding the last comment, it would make no sense to respond as in the response to Jake above, by saying, "get in touch with our Customer Care Team again. Doing this will ensure you've been added to the product issue contact list." That was 9 months ago.
If 9 months have gone by, and there is still no answer posted here by Quickbooks, getting on a list clearly does nothing but waste the customer's time. It would not be nice to put customers through the time-consuming process of making phone calls to get on lists that STILL have not provided their own people at Quickbooks with a helpful answer after 9 months.
PLEASE understand that I am trying to work with you, but being that this thread popped up as the top result when I Googled this problem, there really should be a solution posted here by now. It has been 9 months, after all.
Like Jake above, I had a held deposit. I cleared up the issue. The deposit was made. Then I made a deposit in Quickbooks to account for this. Why does QBO still say deposit on hold?
Is there anything to do to clear this up?
Hello there, Peter292,
Once the deposit is posted, it should also reflect on your QuickBooks account. If the deposit is still showing as deposit on hold, I recommend contacting our QuickBooks support.
You can also check out this article about payment holds: Understanding Payment Holds.
Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with.
Thanks for the polite boilerplate response. Did you read about Jake's 3 calls above? His two sessions of screenshares? Jake made it quite clear above that calling tech support is an exercise in frustration and fruitlessness.
I just got an automated "Kudos" via email from this system, apparently triggered by new people in this community who seem to be experiencing this problem. Quickbooks just "awarded" me as a "Level 2" community member because people apparently appreciate my spelling out the problem here. But really, I am not looking for "Kudos" and "Community Member Awards."
I am looking for Intuit and Quickbooks to fix this problem, or tell me who can fix this problem. Mary, it is not helpful to send me back a fourth time to the same support-people who were unsuccessful 3 times previously. Can you or anyone over there provide the help that one would expect from a reputable company such as yours?

I am having the same issue and can't get help from QBO or chat or anyone! Dang this is frustrating. Seems like it should be such an easy problem to fix. (having to resend because I used a bad word! LOL I didn't know dam was a bad word!
I am having the same issue. Customer payments are on hold. Now I am on the line, on hold, for apparently over 1 hour which is ridiculous.
same problem over here 3 weeks 7k on hold talk to several people by chat no one answer the phone they keep asking the same question no answer this is digusting after solving this issue im done with this horrible company
were you able to solve the issue same problem here for 3 weeks please advise
This seems like a bit of a scam with Quickbooks / Intuit. They say they are protecting the customer (US) due to fraud where in fact they are holding onto legitimate business deposits for potential months on end with little to no customer service. Impossible to reach somebody. Then we the customer have to go back to our client and state the funds have been with held and we look like a poorly ran business. I dont understand how legally they get away with it.
I'm the newest victim of this scam. Did anyone get this resolved? I've been on multiple chats and calls with support, always has to hand me off to someone else and no one is resolving the issue. How can this be a multiple-year issue?
Thanks for joining this thread ans sharing this concern with us, @Jodell56,
If there is a problem with the bank or the account has insufficient funds, your payroll service is put on hold for a maximum of 5 days to make sure the redebit goes through. Please note that if a stop payment is enabled for your bank, it can cause further delays in resolving NSF holds.
Once the fund is settled, that is the only time our Finance Team will remove the hold status so you can resume payroll. If you haven't received any notification or updates, I recommend contacting our Support Team again for this.
They are the ones who have access to your payroll data and help lift the hold status for you. I know you already contacted them, however, we want to make sure your information is safe in this public forum. Disclosure of personal information related to account management and payroll is handled by our Customer Service Team for security reasons.
To learn more about this, see the following article: Resolve a non-sufficient funds (NSF) hold on your payroll service

I shouldn't be having issues having a payment via card withheld from my bank account.

To get around this, I recommend contacting your bank and verify the reason on why your account is placed on hold. You can also contact our Merchant Support team to investigate this further. There, they can look into your account and check the root cause of this issue.
Additionally, here’s an article that you can use for your future guidance in case you’ll need to link a deposit to an invoice.
Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with. I’m just a post away from you.
I am having the same issue at this very moment. I have have three clients paid using the quick books payment option. It has been months and after summiting all the documents request by quick books, no one could help to release the funds. We re now in January, 20201 and no one seems to know what is need to have the funds release. It is so unprofessional, and disgusting that they allow their customers to go through such troubling waters to receive their funds.
I have been dealing with the same issue all week! They put my account on hold and they are withholding thousands of dollars that several of my customers paid for deposits on jobs that I can't start because they won't release the funds! My customers can't access their money and I can't access it to start their jobs. Every single day this week was wasted talking to these fools and getting a different answer from every single person I spoke too. I was told it would be done in 2 days and today is day 4 and NOTHING has been done! I have been lied to and jerked around all week by these people! I could possibly lose a HUGE job for my company due this BS I have been dealing with! They are a bunch of untrained, liars! I can't wait til this is done so I can find a different company to process my credit cards. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
