Quickbooks checking not allowing transfer of funds

I am having an issue transferring funds from my Quickbooks checking to another bank account. Every time I try a transfer it give me the following message: 

"Hmm, that didn't work
Please try again later."
Its been doing that for about a week, customer service has been painful since I've tried every solution they offered and our money seems to still be trapped in their account. I was told the problem was getting "elevated" but who knows what that means. Has anyone had a solution or a specific route they took to resolve?

Still no fix, spent a good amount of time with customer service and even deleted and re added our accounts and nothing. Going to contact customer service again today but it shouldn't be this hard to have access to your hard earned money. Once this is fixed I am closing the Quickbooks Checking account, not worth the hassle.

This is a HUGE issue!  What are my recourses if QBO causes my sales tax payment to bounce?  Businesses need access to their funds immediately... 
Once i get my money I will never use this account again.

I hear your sentiments, @Trufence and @erinsunshine1. I'll help you reach your goal and provide the best solution to transfer funds from your QuickBooks Checking to an external bank account. 

To start, could you please share the exact error message you encountered while trying to make the transfer? This information will help us in identifying the root cause of the issue. Also, ensure that you're logging in as a primary admin of the account for security and authorization. Additionally, please make sure that you're entering the correct values without any special characters in the fields to prevent transaction errors that could cause the system to misinterpret the amount.

If the same thing happens, open your QBO account using an incognito window or use different browsers to prevent potential conflicts that may arise and ensure smoother transaction process.
 

Below are the shortcut keys you can use:

 

  • For Mozilla Firefox browser: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • For Google Chrome browser: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • For Safari Browser: Command + Shift + N

 

If you're still unable to transfer funds, please contact our Customer Care Support Team immediately to investigate this issue further. 

In addition, you'll want to visit QuickBooks Checking FAQ to know more about its features, functionalities, and troubleshooting tips. It also offers guidance on managing transactions and account settings.

Please let us know if you need anything. We're always here to help. Have a good one.

The message I get is Hmm. That didn’t work. Please try again later. I have tried multiple browsers and incognito tabs. Nothing works. I have reached out to customer service and received zero help. I am tired of the bull sh*t. It needs fixed now or QB will need to be responsible for the any late fee on any bills due to not being able to transfer money.
