Unable to update Bank account in payroll settings

We closed our old bank account and have been trying since June 7th to update our payroll bank account (to match our general account). Over 30+ phone calls, chat sessions and emails have left us with no progress. At least 4 cases have been opened. All required documents/pictures, bank forms etc. have been updated on the "file upload" site (just last week support sent me a link while on the phone and we uploaded the files) and emailed several times to accountvalidation@intuit.com & qbo@intuit.com & qbocaresupport@intuit.com . Does anyone know of a way to speak with someone outside of the Tier 1 payroll team in the Philippines? Those I speak with seem sincere, but it gets frustrating when they literally start over each and every phone call (have you cleared your cache? have you tried a different browser? etc.) and are unable to see the history of the problem.

No progress so far. None of your suggestions have helped so far. I received this email, replied as requested with 3 different times to call me, but the emailed come back "undeliverable' - VERY FRUSTRATING.Screenshot 2023-09-06 175103.png

Truly the worst customer service I've experienced from a supplier/vendor in 35 years....

Update. Support has asked me to upload all ID, selfies and bank forms on this site: https://intuitb2b.my.salesforce-sites.com/ for the 3rd time in as many months and said it has been escalated to a knowledgeable team - the agent sounded promising - there have been 5 different cases attached to this problem. Part of the issue is that cases get closed prematurely and the user must "start over". It would be easier if cases could be reopened, so the user does not have re-hash everything again ("have you tried another browser or cleared your cache?" lol).

What was very frustrating about this email was that nothing was listed after the "What We Need" section - we requested numerous times to provide us with a list of items to submit but met with silence. Then after 30 days payroll services were suspended. I've done the same payroll change with 2 other companies with no problem (a list of required documents was provided).

Being able to change your payroll bank account is an important task to ensure accurate and timely payments to your employees, @Dannimal09. Allow me to lend a hand in addressing this concern.  

 

Before we proceed, may I ask if you've encountered any error messages while changing your bank account? This information will help us find the best solution.

 

Additionally, we should consider whether your browser might be causing the problem, as a cluttered browser can lead to unexpected issues, including difficulties in editing payroll bank accounts.

 

We can open your account using an incognito since this window won't save any historical data. Here are the keyboard shortcuts you can use to open one:

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: Command Option P
  • Edge: Ctrl Shift + N

 

Once there, open your account and update your bank account. If you can successfully do so, please clear your browser's cache for a fresh start. Also, I suggest using an updated browser to utilize QBO to its full potential.

 

However, if the issue persists, I would suggest contacting our customer care team so they can further investigate this. They have the right tools and expertise to dig deeper into this issue.
