You would probably be surprised just how many people they do this to.  

They "hold" money, so they can collect interest off of it.  Some people have to wait weeks, if not months, just to get their money.  Those that are having to wait months on end, will have to turn around and collect it from their state, because QB won't release it to you.  Just your state.  

It's all very dishonest.  

(Although, someone from QB will be along shortly to dismiss anything I have said, and sugarcoat it all for ya).

You can use the search bar at the top of any page to find others in your same boat.  Also, if you search "Class action", you will find a thread that talks about a class action lawsuit against Intuit/ QB, for taking money.  There is a link to a FB page that is for the lawsuit.  

Good luck.
