WARNING WARINIG

 

 

I opened a merchant credit card processing account with Inuit a few months ago. Everything was fine till I ran my first transaction. 

I rarely take credit cards unless it's a customer I have done business with before. I processed my client's credit card and expected the funds to be in my account at least 5 days after the transaction since it was our first processed! 

 

Quickbooks Inuit quickly put a halt to that. They requested additional information as far as my client's phone number which I told them they can gladly call and bank statements. Then the 2-day holding time began. 

 

Waited 2 days for a response only to find out they want additional information that they didn't request the first time., 

I uploaded more information and again waited another two days for the operations team to review it!

 

I receive an email a few days later stating that my account is now closed and that my business isn't supported! and i should revise the funds in 3 business days. 

 

 2 days came and went and still no money in our business account from inuit! 

 

I receive a call from HANNAH in the operations team and she states that the day prior my accounts case manager Micheal had released the funds and they would be on the way!

 

THAT WAS A LIE!

I call operations again to ask where are the funds the merchant account still says witheld! 

The operations team went on to say that yes Micheal did put a note in the system that the funds were cleared for release but that his boss Traci put a note in the account that more information is requested. 

 

the person on the phone in operations said she would ask me a few questions that Traci had requested on my account and answered them over the phone the team member went ahead and put the notes in the system. 

 

The operations team request that I give them 2 days and I should hear back from them!  2 days again come and go and nothing. 

 

I called today to see whats the hold-up! they told me I was supposed to upload my contract between my company and my client. I explained never did get an email and when I go to the resolution center it never asked me to upload a contract and it won't let me upload it. they said that I would have to wait 24 to 48 hours to get an email requesting that I upload the contract. 

 

today is Tuesday if I get the email Thursday means that I won't hear from intuit till at least next Monday Tuesday! almost a week from today. 

 

They will never put you in contact with the case manager! they will never put you to their voicemail!

they have now delayed the closure of my account.

 

No one helps you here it just they pass everything along the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. 

 

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM THIS MERCHANT COMPANY!

 

 

We have the paperwork to join other fellow business that has gone through similar experiences in a class action suit! The law office behind this has won cases against these guys.

We're currently in the same situation. I've spent countless hours and phone calls with 10+ employees with now solution to this. They're holding our holding money in their "intuit merchant" account and we can't obtain it.

@CharlesSHC   The only thing they will do here, is refer you to "support".  

 

Sadly, this holding of money is a HUGE deal.  It seems to be a game that QB is playing with their customers, to see just how much they can get away with.  Sadly, they are getting away with FAR too much.  

 

If you search this community, you will find a TON of others, in your same situation.  Some have taken to social media, like FaceBook and Twitter, to get answers or help.  

Many have had no luck at all, and have to wait days, weeks or even months on end. The ones that have had to wait the longest have had to collect is from their own state, once QB has to legally release the money.  

 

My suggestion is to find the treads where they are talking about filing a class action lawsuit.  Join them!!

Also, file complaints and reviews where ever you can.  FTC, State attorney General, BBB... EVERYWHERE!! 

 

Good luck.

This is not the kind of experience we want you to have when processing your payments, @CharlesSHC.

 

When payments are withheld, it means that the payment is put on hold and is being reviewed. You will receive an email at the email address you used to sign in to the Merchant Service Center. This email will provide you with specific steps to fix the issue, such as reviewing the initial invoice that you sent to your customers. You can also check your email settings if you don't see any messages from us.

 

Refer to this article for more information about how long it takes to get customer payments in your bank account after you process them: Find out when QuickBooks Payments deposits customer payments

 

Once you have provided all the required information, we can proceed with processing your payment. However, if you have already submitted all the necessary details but are still unable to receive the funds, I suggest contacting our Customer Support team. They can securely check your account and determine the reason for the issue in a safe and secure environment. 

 

You can find their phone number or chat link through this link: Contact Payments Support

 

Once payments is processed, check the following article to know when QuickBooks deposits customer payments into your bank account: Find out when QuickBooks Payments deposits customer payments

 

Let me know if you need further information or help with your payment on hold. Keep safe, and have a wonderful day!

I am experiencing similar situation, I am left to assume that Intuit uses these excuses and smokescreen to steal our money. They have at this point stolen $15,000. I will be trying again to get someone who does not lie. Next steps will be with legal counsel.
