eBay Payments Stopped Working Again

Hello everyone, figured I'd start a new thread.

 

Since June the eBay connector has been spotty at best. For almost a month it didn't work. Finally, after some internal issue was fixed, I was instructed to disconnect and reconnect the eBay Payments app to sync all my transactions with QuickBooks. It worked the first night and I was finally able to updated my books after a month.

Now, for the last 2 days, the plugin has stopped working. I click update and get the following:

 

We're bringing in your transactions.
It may take a while to bring them all in. Check back soon to see if some are ready. Refresh to update


And then it just sits there. I've left it alone for the whole day, even overnight. No matter how many times I click update, it is not updating or importing anything new from ebay. 

I have tried the following to correct it:

1. Disconnect the eBay Payments App
2. Go to ebay and cancel the 3rd party authorization
3. Clean the data/cookies from all 3 of my browsers.
4. Run CCleaner
5. Reboot
6. Reconnect the App
7. Hit Update

 

And nothing. I've tried several combinations of that several times and nothing works. I tried calling Intuit, and it took 4 different calls before someone didn't just keep making me clear my cookies and try things from "Accountant View".  I was given a Case number and Investigation number: INV-74473

 

Reaching out on here so I can also document the issue here and hopefully get some help from the community as I am truly at my wits end with this rollercoaster ride.

 

I just want to RELIABLY be able to manage my books and would appreciate any help.

I appreciate the response, I truly do, but am confused.

 

I had gotten an email the other day that the issue with Ebay payments was resolved already. It didn't work for my initially, so I had to reach out to support. They are the ones that told me to disconnect & reconnect. 

 

Are you saying the issue was never 100% fixed and has still been going? Or is this a NEW occurrence of a similar issue?

 

Lastly, can you please please verify that my account is on the list for this issue & will get updates when it is resolved?

Resolving your eBay payment issues is our top priority, sulu7.

 

This eBay issue is a new occurrence that was tagged and confirmed the last 11th of August 2022. For you to know more about the details of this case, I recommend reaching out to our support team so they can double-check if the previously reported case has been fixed until such a new case has been created with similar specifications. They can also check if you're among the customers who were listed as one of the affected. Here's how to reach them:

 

  1. Click the (?) Help icon and enter Talk to a human (then type it again when prompted).
  2. When asked by the bot, enter your concern
  3. Select I still need a human, then proceed with Contact us or Get help from a human.
  4. Choose either Chat or Callback.

 

Furthermore, QuickBooks automatically downloads the  latest bank transactions. For more information on how it adds and matches transactions that are already entered, I've added this article for your additional information: Categorize and Match Online Bank Transactions In QuickBooks Online.
