Is anyone else having issues with a QuickBooks checking account? My account is on hold and I need help accessing my funds.

Opened a QuickBooks checking account less than a month ago. Then I wired money into that account on 12/5/2024 from Flagstar Bank, a US bank. I got confirmation from QuickBooks and Green Dot Bank that my money was received. I also received a debit card in the mail that I promptly activated on 12/6/2024. Three days later, on 12/9/2024, I got an email saying that my checking account was on hold and then I realized that have no access to my Green Dot Bank account by phone and/or online. The bank does not have my social security number and the debit card number is not working. I contacted QBO support but they say all they can do is to escalate the issue but do not elaborate on what does that mean or what would that do. Can anybody share some thoughts?

I just got off the phone with a QuickBooks support representative who said that the reason why my account is closed is because I was supposed to submit a picture of my driver license and a selfie to ID myself, but I only uploaded a pdf copy of my California driver's license and therefore my account is locked.  Furthermore, she said that the funds will be on hold for 270 business days upon that time QuickBooks will make the decision to return the funds to me or to send them to the State of California as unclaimed property!  Really?  Can you just send me another email to ID myself properly? Someone please pinch me.  I am about to file a police report and contacting an attorney.
