Question

Lost Data and Receipts

I just upgraded from Self-Employed to SoloPreneur, and all my receipts are gone.  Also, all my transactions from before Jan 24, 2024 are totally gone.  I need all my receipts and Jan 1-24 transactions for my 2024 taxes.

 

I have been told by customer service (Ralph) that all this was supposed to come over, and they assured me it is a bug and it should have already come over, but nothing has changed in my account.  When I just chatted again (Louisa) to follow up with customer service, she told me there is nothing they can do, I just have to wait for an indefinite amount of time...for it to maybe fix itself...and they can't help me get my data downloaded as a backup because she can't access the archives as a T1 tech support, only supervisors/developer level folks can.  I was supposed to get called by a supervisor to my cell phone Louisa said...well that never happened.

 

In hindsight...yeah I should have downloaded all my data before upgrading as a backup, BUT the upgrade page specifically said I did not have to download my data as it would automatically migrate.  This is a huge critical bug it seems! 

 

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can possibly get my data back?  I can't get into Self-Employed (it's gone and just redirects me to Solopreneur now).

 

Thanks in advance everyone 🙂

Thanks for your reply, but that didn't answer my question and as I stated I've already chatted with live support and they seem totally unable to help me.  The solution is I need someone with Archives/Backup access to let me download my data that has been lost.

 

How can I get ahold with that person?  I am actually on a chat right now trying to get transferred to a supervisor of some sort to figure out the best way to go about this!

 

Thank you,

Tim
