Filing a complaint

This isn't the kind of expression we want you to have in receiving invoice payments in QuickBooks Online (QBO), James. I'll share some details about how QuickBooks process your payment 

If you use QuickBooks Payments, you can process payments right within QuickBooks. If you notice a payment you recently received is on hold, don't worry. This doesn't mean anything is wrong. It just means we must check it to ensure everything is in order. This benefits everyone involved in the payment process. We review payments periodically to ensure accuracy. 

Also, we can check the status of your funds by logging into your Merchant Services account and seeing the status under the Method column. If it displays Withheld, this means that we're still reviewing it.

If there are issues regarding the deposit, we will send an email to the one you used to sign in to the Merchant Service Center. It'll give you specific steps to fix any issues. 

To sort it out, please follow the steps in the email urgently. After that, our dedicated team will work on this within 2 business days, and then they can finish processing the payment. However, if the funds are withheld for more than the specified days, please consider contacting our Merchant Support Team to check it further.

It's not being withheld or reviewed they are just sitting on it. My client paid invoice may 22nd I got email may 24th that money was on its way. I looked and  Intuit isn't planning to move it to boa until the 28th this is not right. I want the money yesterday. There is nothing I can do or speak with because holiday weekend what ever petty money Intuit has collected holding my money is nothing compared to my actual suffering, yes suffering cause I have 14 dollars in my account I owe people money I haven't been able to pay tho I promised I would by Saturday because Ms Yolanda paid me already.von top of all this Intuit has the gall to charge me 42 dollars. Which I'm putting it out there right now I do not expect to pay. It better be credited to me and that is the very least. This whole situation has red flags everywhere it is not right and I don't care how you explain it I have an inate sense like most people do about fairness and right and wrong and this is unfair wrong and in my opinion vile. I don't care who needs to be called that person better be called and my funds moved today Monday the 27th.

i am now 20min into the tedious process that customer service is and currently pondering if life is worth it the torture that is the hold music played by Intuit. I do not doubt the little jazzy ditty was developed with that specifically and I think that should be investigated. And as should have been expected the supervisor washed her hands stated the money went out Friday and if I don't have it it is my banks fault. The system is set up to delay over weekends and that is in appropriate.  The batch goes out just after the cutoff time adding an unecessary delay which pushes the funds back the result of this is an invoice paid May 22nd site in intuits accounts  for 5 days. This is wrong. It doesn't not have to process out like that. It is not unreasonable to expect for the fee I am paying that the batch process goes out before the cutoff time say I  the morning and not afternoon.  I pay a hefty processing fee and expect something of value for that fee.  Processing batch payments after the cutoff time does not the ave any value and is unethical business practice.

Is no one going to respond? My money showed up early Tuesday morning the 28th of May exactly when and how the system is designed to do it. I am calling out this as inappropriate at the least. On a 1450 invoice the fee is 42.30. for this job that was more than an hour of hard labor Laying down sod by myself which I have to accept because my clients need to be able to pay with credit cards online. However I will not accept is under any circumstances that that money takes 6 days to become available to me 5 of which it sat in intuits bank account. It is becoming more and more common for these transactions to be completed in a day if not instantly as a matter of Intuit even offers it but not to me.  If a client pays by cash app PayPal venmo or zelle the funds are mine immediately and I can choose to transfer to my bank immediately for a fee or if no hurry I get it in 2 days max. That being the case what exactly do I get for the fees I pay? What are the consumer financial protection laws for situations like this?
