Hello,
I am having an issue with my QuickBooks Online bill pay function. When I go to schedule a bill payment, under the account in small red text I get the error code "invalid account, please try another one". Which will not allow me to schedule any bill payments. Further, all scheduled bill payments via that account are failing. I have spoken with QuickBooks customer support 20+ times over the last month and the issue is still occurring. I have tried the following solutions:
1. Try another browser, clear the cache
2. I have submitted multiple bank letters, support team says they're approved, issue still persists
3. Try to re add the bank account. The same error message persists, does not provide hyper link to verify deposits
My suspicion is the first withdraw from that account failed, due to an internal bank control. When the first transaction failed, QuickBooks Bill Pay decided that account was risky, etc. and will no longer trust the account. Leading me to be in this purgatory status where no one seems to know what's going on.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? If so, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello,
I have spoken with QuickBooks Online support 20+ times with no resolution of the issue. I cannot continue wasting time attempting solutions that do not work.
Did you ever get it working right? Mine works properly most of the time but usually a few times a week it says “something went wrong”. Its very irritating.
I can help resolve this error and get your bill payments back on track, LSTP.
Beforehand, may I know when you received the something went wrong error in QuickBooks Bill Pay? Any details or screenshots would be helpful.
In the meantime, perform basic troubleshooting steps. Too much historical data can slow down loading times, and clearing it will resolve the problem.
First, access your account through an incognito window to rule out the possibility of a webpage issue. You can refer to these shortcut keys to open an incognito window in all supported browsers:
If it works, switch back to your regular browser. Then, clear its cache. This way, you can access QuickBooks with a clean slate. You can also use a different supported one.
If the issue persists, I recommend contacting our Customer Support Team. This way, they can pull up your account securely and check the cause of the problem.
Here's how.

Try opening your QBO account on any private/incognito browser. Did you encounter the same problem?
I keep getting the error message "Payments not scheduled." I’ve called customer service three times, and they keep telling me my invoice amounts are too large and that I need to wait 24 hours. It’s been five days, and the issue still isn’t resolved. I even tried issuing a paper check, but the same error occurred. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It may be that you are not allowed to pay bills with that amount of money at the moment. Consider to sign up for a free Melio account to sync with QBO as a workaround. You can also get $100 cashback to pay a bill.
