QBO Payroll Test Transactions

 On Thursday, 2.13, I tried to setup four clients on QuickBooks Online Payroll. I get to the point to verify the test transactions and get an error message that the account cannot be verified. For the first client I called to see what the issue might be. The bank routing number, account, name on the account address, birthday, cell phone are all correct. After spending (3) hours with tech support I was told that the only solution would be for the client to try another business account. (Meaning open up another account to see if the problem persists. Not an option for any of my clients!). Today, I received emails from all four clients saying the test deposits had been made into their accounts. When I try to enter them into QBO payroll it does not give me the option of entering the test transactions and wants me to verify the bank account again. Has anyone had this issue?
