We recently had 5 recurring transactions fail "card declined". After emailing our customers to ask if they got a new card, none of them had. I then re-ran the transactions one at a time and they went through this time. However, each time I was sent back to the QB login page in a frame within the frame I was already using. The third time it didn't even do that. This was repeatable. This has made a bad impression on my customers, and appears to be due to multiple independant problems. This is not the first time I've seen this - it has been happening for several months or more.
The card declined notification when processing some of your recurring transactions may result from several potential reasons, @kimber2. Let's dig into this topic to find a resolution.
Authorization problems and missing information is a common reason why customer's credit card is getting declined. To manage this thoroughly, here are some tips that can help you check if you entered their credit card information manually:

Not ALL recurring transactions fail, just some. And all the cards that failed have been working for over a year (some for several years), then failed, so the card info is correct. I re-ran each a few days after they failed and the transactions went through that time.
The second issue (where QBO brings me back to the login page, then opens a second frame inside the first so I see multiple copies of the left-hand side menu) could be browser cache or cookies (I'm using Chrome, and always keep it up to date), but this has ocurred on two different computers, leading me to believe QB Online isn't managing their cookies properly. I will try an incogneto window next time this happens and see if that helps.
