Question

QuickBooks has put a hold on my QuickBooks checking after being lured with their 5% offer. How can I withdraw my money? It seems they have stolen my $11,000. Help.

You would probably be surprised just how many people they do this to.  

They "hold" money, so they can collect interest off of it.  Some people have to wait weeks, if not months, just to get their money.  Those that are having to wait months on end, will have to turn around and collect it from their state, because QB won't release it to you.  Just your state.  

It's all very dishonest.  

(Although, someone from QB will be along shortly to dismiss anything I have said, and sugarcoat it all for ya).

 

You can use the search bar at the top of any page to find others in your same boat.  Also, if you search "Class action", you will find a thread that talks about a class action lawsuit against Intuit/ QB, for taking money.  There is a link to a FB page that is for the lawsuit.  

 

Good luck.

Regarding my original post, the deposits were done January 17th, almost 4 weeks ago. I have tried to transfer the money out only to see a message that my account is blocked and I can not transfer the funds. What the heck? Without drawing any conclusions, it seems to me that my money was stolen. I even called the customer service phone and spoke to a person that told me I can not get my money back because intuit has closed the account with  my money in it.  Please help.

Wow.This is so scary. I’m new to QBO and this definitely gives me pause on whether to use their banking services at all.

I understand that getting paid quickly is a priority for you, fjacobsdds.

 

To give you an idea of how electronic customer payments work for online invoices, I'd like to share some information with you.

 

When you begin to process or receive payment for the first time, it may take up to five (5) business days to deposit your funds because we need to set up your merchant account. Once this is done, payments will be processed faster. However, there may be times when deposits are delayed. To find out why, you can check out this article: Why are my funds on hold?.

 

Additionally, banks have their own rules for processing payments. Thus, the deposit schedule is controlled by them.

 

You can also contact our QuickBooks Payments Customer Support Team for them to check the payment status, and the reasons for the delay, and help you resolve it. 

 

For additional reference, here are some articles which you may find helpful:

I purposefully avoided adding my banking information when I saw QB redesign their site to receive payments. They have continued to put tags and links in invoices hoping to fool customers into paying through them even when I haven’t set up an account to receive payments. Well they finally got a payment from one of my customers and they refuse to release it. Customer service refused to let me speak to a supervisor and said the process is out of their control. I have worked weeks for this money and need to make payroll but QB thinks they are deserving of money they have not earned. I pay monthly but it isn’t enough. This is a very deceptive company and I would recommend avoiding using them before it is too late.

They have also stolen my money. I was paid 7,000.00, they took their fees and held the remaining 6,700.00. Said it was for possible chargeback. This was since May 16th 2024. Then they said I had to wait 90 to 180 days to see if the charge would be disputed. I assured them it won’t but I’ll wait. Then they said have my customer dispute it. I told them I don’t want to because they already had my merchandise so WHY would I let them have their money back ALONG with my merchandise…? They said ok. They’ll let me wait it out. NOW they’re telling me there was an issue with an old account I had with them 12 years ago that was written off 11 yrs ago. And THAT’S why they’re holding it. Smfh. But they let other transactions process AND allowed me to open an account. So because they KNOW there won’t be a chargeback their NEXT attempt to keep my money is a 12 yr old debt. When by LAW no collection can be pursued after 7-10 years. WHERE IS MY MONEY…?????!!!!!! It’s now July 1st 2024. A month and a half LATER!!!!
