Quickbooks Holding our Funds

Quickbooks has been holding over $100k of our money! We have called multiple times spoke with customer service and supposed "supervisors" they have escalated the issue multple times and each time we call back for an update they tell us it was never escalated. They will issue another escalation. Noone can give me a solid answer, noone can tell me when the funds will be relased or even a legitimate reason of why they are on hold. Their page even says they are not a bank and have NO AUTHORITY to withhold our funds. Yet here we are. I have a bsuiness to run and quickbooks is a joke. Ive asked to be transfered to operations and apparently theres noone to transfer to. Needless to say we will be getting our attorney involved and will be canceling our subscription with them

Sadly, that is what Intuit/ QB does, is hold their customers money.  They have figured out how to collect interest off of it. So the longer they hold it, the more money they get.  They do, however, have to release it after 270 days. But they release it to your state, where you then have to collect it.  

 

You can use the Search bar at the top of nay page here in the community, to find MANY others in the same boat.  

I would recommend filing complaints against Intuit/ QB everywhere you can think of.  BBB. FTC, State Attorney general... 

Good Luck.

Quickbooks Holding our Funds

I have seen MANY posts concerning this issue going all the way back to 2020.

How is it possible that there has been no resolution to this on Quickbooks side and that they are allowed to do this after 3+ years of people making formal complaints on the same issue.

 

Like many I made a Quickbooks Payments account. Processed a payment. Few days later i get a notification that my account has been closed due to a "business decision". They are now holding funds north of 40k with no resolution in the foreseeable future.  It's been 3 weeks for me.

HOW IS IT LEGAL OF THEM TO HOLD FUNDS FOR 270 DAYS, LET ALONE WITH NO CLEAR PATH FOR RESOLUTION. It's clear that they intentionally hold people's money for whatever reason. 

Businesses need their money. Period. Employees need to be paid, bills need to be paid, most business cannot wait more than a couple weeks for their funds.

It is insane that there is no phone number for the Risk Management team. 80% of these issues could be resolved with a 10/20minute phone call.

 

Like everyone I have called nonstop, spoken to many representatives, been given all sorts on conflicting responses. No one knows anything. The best they can do is tell me is "It's under review". 

 

If anyone has a phone number to contact someone that can help please help me out. A Magic word, a special extension, anything. Any pending lawsuits looking for people to join please reach out to me. 

It's crazy that businesses can potentially shut down over Quickbooks inability to provide support .

 

Before someone from QB responds to this with the same generic BS that they respond to everyone with. Trust me, anyone posting here has tried all your contacting methods and it's clear NO ONE can assist properly with this issue. Respond with some actual help or the information of someone that can actually assist.
