Merchant Services

Merchant Services has not been downloading or matching transactions for almost two weeks now.  I have called twice and both times I am told that they are aware of the issue and are working on it.  Is this going to be fixed or am I going to need to get a different merchant services account.  This is unacceptable service.

Is there an ETA for the fix?

Hello there, ns21.

 

I appreciate you for getting back to us here in the Community. Allow me to chime in and share some information about matching transactions in QuickBooks. 


This issue has been reported already and our engineering team is working to resolve this for you. Right now, we're unable to provide an estimated time on when it will be fixed. No worries. We'll update this post once we receive an update.

I'm also including some additional info on Merchant Service Deposits in QBDT:
 

 

You can get back to me anytime you have additional questions about Merchant Services. Take care!

"Please wait... We're matching your deposits to QuickBooks Desktop records"

 

We are having the same issue here. It began happening after Quickbooks 2020 Pro installed the latest update. Luckily until today I avoided installing that update on one of our other workstations and could still process merchant deposits. Unfortunately today Quickbooks forced me to install the update now that workstation no longer processes merchant deposits.

 

I'm in chat with Intuit now as instructed to 'notify' them we are also having the issue. This seems pointless and it taking valuable time.

We also are having this issue.  I have called twice when i called last week i was told it would be fixed in an update on Friday.  There has not been an update.  This is not good service.  It has been almost a month since the issue started.  Quickbooks this needs to me priority!

I'm in IT so this was easy for me to do but this has been my work around until Intuit issues a patch...

 

I created a Windows 10 virtual machine so I'd have a clean Win10 install to work with.

I installed my original download of Quickbooks 2020 R6 then unchecked auto updates so it wouldn't update.

This allowed me to open my existing company file and perform merchant deposits. Quickbooks did nag about opening a company file formatted for a newer version of Quickbooks, however, it still worked. When I'm done with the merchant deposit I close Quickbooks on the virtual machine then open it on my workstation and carry on as usual. I'm only using the virtual machine to process the merchant deposits.

 

It's dumb that I have to do this but it beats manually entering the credit card transactions and deposits.

We tested the Merchant Services Deposits function in our QB Desktop 2020 Premier yesterday and the error:

“Please wait… We’re matching your deposits to QuickBooks Desktop records” is no longer appearing, and the records matching function is now working again.  We did not download any QB software updates so the fix seems to be internal to QB. 

Keeping our fingers crossed...

May 25, 2022

I just tried it and it worked for me also. YAY!

 

So much for getting notified about the fix... What a racket.

I didn't get notified either despite being told by three reps that I would.  Poor service.
