Question

Need help to change the phone number linked to the account that was compromised by a hacker!

Hi all,

 

Our online account was hacked last week, and the hacker added their phone number for 2FA. We urgently need help because we can't change the phone number or do anything since it always sends the code to that number. There's no option to send the code to an email or any other way. We tried filling out the account recovery form, but the request was instantly rejected, even though we provided all the correct information matching our driver's license, etc. There's no phone number to call, only an email to [email address removed]. We received an initial automatic reply but no follow-ups for several days. We have a business to run and can't do anything without bypassing the 2FA requirement. Has Intuit abandoned their customers? What do we need to do to get help?

Hi, we've already spoken to four different customer support representatives, and they all directed us to contact [email address removed]. However, we haven't received any response. We urgently need assistance because we can't conduct any business transactions until this issue is resolved. Is there a more direct way to contact the security team or perhaps a manager?
