I simply cannot afford the $1300.00 to renew my subscription. I have my QB program on CD. I understand that bank feeds wont work and some other stuff. But I will still be able to use my company file within the QB program that i paid for and have on CD correct?

No. You should consider switching to an old QB Desktop with a non subscription license. Otherwise, renew your license though a reseller and you can get $200 cashback

I understand how the renewal cost can be a concern, especially when managing business expenses effectively, @the_tile_setters. I'm here to help you understand what to expect with your QuickBooks Desktop software once the subscription expires.

 

When your subscription ends, you will have read-only access for one year. During this time, you can view reports but won't be able to edit your file or create any transactions. With this, we recommend exporting your data before this happens.

 

If you decide to upgrade your subscription, I recommend referring to this detailed article for guidance. This resource provides a step-by-step process, ensuring you can upgrade the software seamlessly.

 

Keep me posted by leaving a reply to this thread if you have more questions or concerns about managing your subscription. I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Stay safe and take care.

But I bought QB Desktop outright in the box. There was no mention of subscription renewal or even that I had to have a subscriotion to run QB. And now they are going to make MY software unworkable? The QB I bought is QB Desktop Premier 2019. I don't need  customer support from Q B or even the so-called "Help" menu for that matter. QB Help articles are about as unhelpfull as you can get. When I need help I ask the community. So if I go back to my 2019 software are they able to make it   unworkable?

Are you sure you have QB Desktop 2019, not 2021? Intuit introduced the first subscription license for Pro/Premier 2021.
