Question

Deposit On Hold - Lawsuit

QuickBooks accepted payments from 3 of my customers in June 2021 totaling $26,000 and then closed the account "you account  has been closed as a business decision and the funds will remain on hold for 270 or your customer can dispute".

 

This is unacceptable. I have called numerous times and just get pushed around to noone taking accountability. 

 

My attorney has initiated a law suit. I'm reaching out to see if anyone else is experiencing this issue?

Has anyone started a class action suit yet? I want to be part of it, I am willing to try and get something started but wanted to see if anything was going yet? You can get in touch with me at gothartproperties at gmail dot com

 

I hope my info stays on this post, I find it funny that QB continues to delete all the contact info where we are all trying to get in touch with each other

I feel like Bill Murray in Groundhog’s Day.  This time, we spoke with another “agent” that spoke decent English and told us she would research further and get back to us.  This, after spending an hour+ re-explaining our experience with QB/GreenDot/intuit… again.  

Apparently our account has been flagged as “un-scalable”, as in “ignore them”… but somehow we got an agent to say “escalate this again” as if they were magic words in order to further look into why they are held  if our $$$.  More to come.  Please reach out with your story David AT Helifox DOT com …

Dear all, 

 

I'm a licensed CPA in New York with more than 200 clients. While rebranding my business, I created a new QBO accountant and payments account and all of a sudden on February 28th my account was closed without any prior notification. $8k of deposits are on hold and the customer support is pushing me around as if I'm guilty of something.  After explaining the situation more than 10 times; they created a case and said that the case is escalated. It's been 10 days and I uploaded my CPA license, bank statements, passport copies, contracts/ invoices with customers; no one has even reviewed my case. 

 

As a licensed CPA that assists many small businesses; I find this treatment unacceptable and whatever it costs I will speak to an attorney to file a suit against Intuit if this issue is not resolved. In addition, I will begin looking for alternative options for my small business clients that pay over $500k annually to Intuit to move to another business if I cant find a resolution to this completely unacceptable problem.

 

What's being done is not ethical but the lack of empathy and understanding of some of customer service professionals on the phone makes you regret the decision to partner with Intuit in the first place. 

 

Is there anyone who has a similar issue and how have you resolved this? 

 

thank you

Murat

I’m waiting almost year and half to solve the problem on my account same thing happened to me they closed my account and holding my over 20k more than a year they opened tons of case, and they start laying someone gonna call me they are send me checks nothing happened last couple months. No one called me back no one send me a checks. My money still in quickbooks and they dont care. Worst company ever thats why I stopped using all intuit products and services I’m not recommend to use any of their service or products. If someone going to lawsuit against to them I’m in!

We recently had a customer dispute a charge that they paid with their credit card online. We did not "accept" the dispute and proceeded to attach documents requested by QB to via their online link. They said it would take up to 52 days to resolve, so we left it alone went about our business. About two weeks after that QB stopped depositing into our bank the payments other customers began making via the QB emailed invoice. It took 90 min. or so through the QB chat to discover that they had a glitch in their system, they were wanting more documents from me regarding the dispute and they are holding the $19,840.00 that my other customers have paid online. They now say it will take 2-3 days to "escalate" the case. I have no idea at all what that means! They never warned me about this. I will be looking to find a different merchant to use to enable online payments to my customers and I will simply attach a pdf of their invoice. QB system doesn't work right anyway so I have to manually enter the payments. Will be finding a more reputable online merchant company.

Im having the same issue.. I just had the same thing happen... was emailed that my payments were going to close. I called and they told me I needed to send over some documents. After that call I received an email stating that I can start accepting payments again. So I assumed everything was cleared up and processed an invoice. they held my fund stating that I still need to send over the documents to reopen even thought you literally sent me an email stating I am able to process payments again. After turning in the documents you came back and told me without any explanation that they came to conclusion that they are going to close my account and my funds are frozen. I called numerous times and on phone for hours trying to get an explanation and a route to get my money back. You refuse to let me speak to the risk management office and won't give an explanation as to why you can send back the money to client. the last time I spoke to the customer service team they told me they are going to hold my funds for at least 180 days while they review my account. You guys already reviewed my account and closed it. I don't understand why my funds aren't being returned to the vendor so that they can pay me another way. Why are you guys being so incompetent? You are ruining lives and families. If I dont find a solution to this within the next week I will be informing the BBB FTC and getting legal counsel to get my money back.

I have been calling them for months to get my money back, they closed my account out of the blue and froze everything. The entirety of my brand new business was tied up in the account and has since collapsed. Is a lawsuit going forward? I would very much like to join up. I broke down crying on the phone today because they told me I had to wait 90 days to get everything released, even gave me a date to call them back. And when I did they said they had to send it to their "Backend" team that you cant contact through support to get it approved. It should not be this hard to get my own money returned to me. If someone could contact me I have gmail accounts. I see that they are deleting emails from a public forum though. Probably under some false guise of "security purposes". But I do not consent to having my lawfully given information to a group of like minded people seeking restitution to be modified or censored. It is my right to give my contact information out if I so choose. I'm untamedsands and or darja.brewer please someone reach out. Quickbooks has not been any help.
