My account has disappeared again. It happened on June 19th. It was logged in on the 17th, I was out of the office on the 18th, when I returned on the 19th and tried to login into to QBOA, it says "We can't find anyone with [email address removed]." Using chrome incognito, I was able to login and chat with an Adriano Jr on the 19th and was told that it's possibly a security issue and it's being looked at on the back end. I did not receive a reference number so I can't check the status of this issue. And, NO ONE can seem to tell me how this happens. How does an account become deactivated when it wasn't done by the firm or the individual, twice in four months????? Since June 19th, I have tried, every day, to login to QBOA and I am still getting the error. This is absolutely ridiculous!!! Am I the only one this is happening to?

This just happened to me! Are you kidding me! I've been with QB since 2012. All of a sudden I go to log in to my online account and it says that it can't find anyone with my email address. My entire account is just GONE!

 

This is going to be a class action lawsuit by the looks of everyone this is happening to. I am furious.

I too have been locked out since September 14.  I logged in on September 13 and September 14 my email is not found.  Not only did I lose my QBO account, but my whole intuit account has disappeared/been deactivated.  I have spoken to customer service many time and uploaded my id several times and nothing.  Each time I am told this has to be escalated to tier 3 support, but nothing is changing.  I get an email requesting my id, I upload and I get denied.  All of the online help says to login to your account, which is impossible since I have been locked out!  I tried creating a new account, but can't do that because my email addresses are "associated with another account".  This is so frustrating!

Hi Mac012021. To this day, still no one can say how I disappeared in the first place. However, after I finally talked to a live person, he discovered that I'm listed as a QBO user twice under the firm account. The initial time I disappeared, my boss invited me as a user under my personal email address. After accepting, I went in and changed the personal email to my work email. Well, somehow my original user profile reappeared and I ended up having two user profiles. I had to change the 2nd invite back to my personal email address, then deactivate that user and activate my original one; this allowed me to get my original user profile back (the one that's connected to my proadvisor profile). That happened a few of months ago, I haven't had the issue since. Hope this helps.

This exact thing is happening to me right now, it has been 5 days now. I have spoken to over 12 representatives and each of them have done nothing. They have me sending in documentation and my ID and still have not helped. My business has thousands of client documentation and employee information. They probably make 2k off of me a month in their fees and still can’t help me. There is no way I am going to just walk away from this, I am a few days away from lawyering up and demanding compensation

Was this ever resolved? We are on day 4 of 17 years of information just gone....!

Was this ever resolved? I am on day 4 of of 17 years of data just gone!! No one can tell me anything.

I believe this has also happened to our account. My personal work account, a full admin access account, has vanished with no trace as of how/why. I conducted an audit of our user activity log and am not finding a "removed user" log. I also never received an email notification about any change to my account or access. Although I have access through our accountant file, and am able to resend an invite, I am mind boggled as to how this would just randomly happen to accounts. By the looks of this thread, it has happened quite a bit in the past months with no real answer from QB. This is absolutely unacceptable! Unsure of re-adding myself so I can prove I went missing in the first place. Has anyone received a solid explanation? Next steps? Was it ever resolved?

@RN_ 

It seems like this was a glitch and it could happen to anyone and they couldn't solve it. Consider regularly converting your data to QB Desktop files for archiving. You can use the trial version to access files.

This exact thing happened to me.  This is a crushing blow to our company financially.  We process 100 invoices a day this time a year.  We use QBO API's with our in-house software.  We run payroll through QBO.  We have 50 employees.  It's the Christmas season & this erodes trust greatly.  The way Quickbooks handles this through Customer Service people to escalate to other people is horrible. It takes days.  We run 2 shifts(16/hr days) and 6 days a week when busy.  The firewall of Customer Service reps to get it to the right people at Quickbooks is unacceptable.  We trusted you with our business, our financial lives and the lives of our employees.  HELP US NOW!!!!!

Beforehand, could you access your account using an Incognito or private window? If so, please ensure the QuickBooks website isn't blocked in your browser. This can also prevent you from finding and signing in to your account.

 

Depending on your browser, you can refer to this article for guidance: Why doesn't anything happen when I select a button or link?

 

If the issue persists, I recommend contacting our customer support team for further assistance. They can thoroughly dig into this matter and determine why you're unable to access your account. Accordingly, they can provide the most appropriate fix or workaround to get you back to business.

 

To connect with them, access this link and log in to your account using a private window: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/help/en-us/contact-us.

 

Alternatively, scroll down to the section entitled I've tried all of the self-help options and still can't sign in in this material to locate their contact information: Recover your Intuit Account if you can’t sign in.

 

Moreover, you may want to enhance your data security by updating your sign-in credentials or other information for your QuickBooks products. Note that you can do this directly in the Intuit Account Manager.
