Question

I need help with a client issue. The bank changed their account # due to suspected fraud. The merchant account needs the bank account number changed. The open to make the change requires a pin sent to their phone number. Their phone number is answered by an auto-switchboard (press 1, press 2, etc.) and therefore we cannot get the pin code to change the bank account. I do not have the menu option to close the merchant account. I have sent in documentation to have the phone number on file changed to a cell number. It has not been done yet. There are payments out in cyberspace that the client cannot get because Intuit will not change the phone number on the account. I am basically at a loss as to what to do. Someone please help with this issue.

Thank you for the information, this has been going on for months. I have called multiple times, I have used chat multiple times, and nothing is being done. I really want a phone number of someone besides the merchant services department that can resolve this issue, because I am getting nowhere contacting them.

not to mention... you constantly email and call with codes to access my account, but you cannot change a bank account number by emailing a code to me? I just really do not understand.
