How do you handle a QBs Pmt that continues getting declined because QBs Pmts has flagged your client's account for a reason they're unable to answer?

Client of 5+ years set up on recurring invoicing. I process the ach payment on the 1st of every month via saved client banking info which is all accurate. Pmts over the last five years have been declined randomly and then I try again a few days later and it processes. So some months no problem others it eventually processes. In December, declined. Jan declined. I ended up running through my Square account and NO PROBLEM--got paid. QBS insists I should ask customer for another form of payment vs fixing their glitch. After MANY times on support calls they finally told his bank account is flagged but no one apparently knows why. NEVER has the client had an NSF, his bankers verified his account is WELL above and always has been average balances. It's not the bank or his account, it's QBs pmts and I'm about to just leave QBs and turn to another accounting software merely because they won't fix the issue.

I hear your sentiments and understand how crucial customer payments are when tracking them in your QuickBooks account, kking1967. Going back and forth isn't easy, so I've come to provide some information about your concern.

 

Intuit payment policies for a customer's account being flagged can't be disclosed in a public forum like Community, since this platform isn't potentially equipped to discuss confidentiality about your client's account. Our support representatives are available to further investigate and find out the root cause of this issue. 

 

That said, it's best to get in touch with our Payments support team to have your account reviewed further and conduct an investigation. This way, declined payments will then be rectified.

 

Furthermore, you may want to utilize this guide to help you view and track current financial cashflows of your account and your overall business finances: Run reports in QuickBooks.
