      I filed taxes with Intuit TurboTax over 6 years. In 2023 I started receiving notices from the *** stating that my return received in 2017 from tax year 2016 was audited and I now owe $2,536.99. I have spent over a year contacting every department at the state of ******* regarding this, I have emailed, I have contacted advocates offices, I have done every thing possible to resolve this issue. I was placed on permanent disability in 2017. I live on fixed income, I am currently homeless, and the one thing that I owned my vehicle had a lien placed on it. I am not sure where else to turn regarding this matter. I have attached some items however I have many items of attempted communication attempts as well as resolve resolutions from 2019 when I resolved a prior tax issue and this was not discussed. I am aware that issues happen, however this is nearly 10 years later with tremendous fees and Intuit charges the same amount to correct that is "claimed" I originally owed around $900. I would like this issue resolved as soon as possible. Please see that I have made and completed prior commitments to *** when I could without issues and without knowledge of fault due to a 2014 intuit tax form error. Also, during medical hardship and life circumstances I did file bankruptcy in 2022. That was paid and discharged, please note also this issue arose after that as well. That is also affecting my life and credit, please assist in the best way possible as soon as possible.

      On 6 June 2025 I lost access to my Intuit / QuickBooks Online account, which contains the entire bookkeeping history of my post-revenue, pre-Series A AI startup. The login screen displayed Access Denied.9 *********** 3 hours with Level-1/2 support. Ticket escalated to Level 3; no resolution provided.11 ************ back; Intuit *** stated the account had been permanently deleted and all data erased. Stated reason: my payment card failed twice consecutively. This is incorrectI successfully paid the monthly subscription on 7 May. No email, phone call, or in-app alert was ever sent before deletion.Exposure * IRS risk: QuickBooks held the only consolidated record of roughly 200 ****** 000 in expenses (receipts, invoices, mileage logs, sales-tax records) for the past fiscal year. Loss of this evidence invites audit penalties and jeopardizes R&D-credit documentation.* Reconstruction cost: I have already spent $10 00020 000 in accountant hours and personal time attempting to rebuild data from bank feeds, vendor portals, and client correspondenceeffort that cannot fully restore original receipt images or invoice metadata.Remedy sought 1. Immediate restoration of the deleted QuickBooks datasetbackup, snapshot, or any server-side copy that still exists in Intuit systems.2. Failing restoration, compensation for all reasonable costs required to reconstruct the financial records, including CPA fees, legal counsel, and potential IRS penalties.Key facts for escalation or legal demand * Account deletion occurred without prior notice, in violation of reasonable-notice expectations for a paid subscription service.* Payment failure claim is contradicted by a successful 7 May charge on the same credit card.* Intuits own support timeline shows escalation to Level 3 on 9 June but no attempt to retrieve data before deletion was disclosed on 11 ******* information:Email - ********************** Case number (escalated to Level 3) - ***********

Suddenly the holding period changed from 100 days to 290 days, with no justification and no clear next steps.We have spoken with multiple agents and supervisors and logged multiple cases, yet each time weve been met with incomplete or inconsistent information:Case History: Case #*********** Case #*********** Case #*********** Case #*********** Case #*********** Case #*********** Case #*********** Every call gave us conflicting explanationsfraud review, missing verification, executive decision, and back to fraud reviewwith no direction, no written instructions, and no internal ************** communication or instructions via email or *****************.

      This complaint concerns Intuits improper handling of a chargeback initiated by a customer despite clear and extensive evidence provided by my company, ***********, to dispute it.On or about March 5, 2025, a client, ***** *********, submitted a $3,500.00 payment for automotive services rendered by ***********. These services were fully completed, documented, and acknowledged by the client via written communication. On May 21, 2025, the client initiated a chargeback via ****************, falsely claiming unauthorized or undelivered services.Despite providing Intuit / QuickBooks Payments with:A signed service authorization Time-stamped photos of work completed Detailed invoice breakdown Text and email records confirming the clients approval and receipt Terms and conditions signed by the client Intuit failed to uphold its responsibility as my payment processor to properly investigate and defend the transaction. The dispute process was opaque, and communication was minimal. No justification was given for denying the evidence submitted, and no merchant advocacy or response opportunity was properly facilitated in alignment with Fair Credit Billing Act principles.Nature of Complaint:Mishandling of Dispute Resolution Process Failure to Represent and Protect the Merchant in Good Faith ********** Communication and Lack of Transparency Negligence in Upholding Reasonable Evidence Standards Resolution Sought:I demand that Intuit:Reopen or escalate the dispute resolution through internal review or arbitration.Issue a formal written explanation as to why my documentation was disregarded.Implement changes to ensure fair merchant representation in future ****************** the full $3,500.00 to my account or pursue recovery on my behalf as the acquiring party.This was not only a financial loss but a severe breach of trust in the merchant services promised by Intuit.

      Business Response

      Date: 06/17/2025

      To Whom It May Concern, 

      Thank you for the opportunity to respond.  At Intuit, we value our customers, and we strive to provide the best possible support for merchants navigating disputes and chargebacks. Below, we have outlined the details of Mr. Banks's case and the steps we have taken to address his concerns.

      He contacted us regarding an unresolved chargeback dispute involving a $3,500 transaction processed via American Express. We understand and empathize with his frustration over the ruling in favor of the client despite his submission of substantial supporting evidence, such as invoices, text message approvals, photos documenting the repair work, and the client’s agreement to the outlined terms and conditions of service. We recognize that experiencing a second disputed chargeback within six months has created financial strain for his small business, and we appreciate the seriousness of this matter.

      The chargeback dispute resolution process is determined by card-issuing banks, such as American Express, as outlined in the merchant agreement. Intuit’s role as a merchant processor is to submit the documentation provided by the merchant to the issuing bank for review. We do not have control over the bank’s decision, as it is made solely by the issuing bank after evaluating the evidence submitted by all parties. We encouraged Mr. Banks to consider additional steps to recover the funds held by the client, including filing a police report or a small claims case directly against the client, since they ultimately hold the disputed funds. While chargeback rulings can be frustrating, it is important to understand that Intuit operates as the intermediary and cannot overturn the decisions made by the issuing bank.

      We reassured Mr. Banks that Intuit had handled this matter seriously and submitted all the documentation he provided in support of his case. We understand that he expressed dissatisfaction with the perceived lack of representation by Intuit and the overall chargeback process. We outlined the limitations of Intuit’s role and encouraged him to coordinate directly with American Express or escalate matters legally to seek resolution outside of the standard dispute process.

      If Mr. Banks have further questions or concerns, we encourage him to visit Intuit Support, where customers will find additional resources and experts available to assist. 

      Respectfully,

      Sonia

      I received notification from Intuit about our QuickBooks Online subscription renewal and the price increase on April 3, 2025 (renewal date was June 2, 2025). I immediately began shopping for a more economical option and settled on **********. **** offered to import our data from QuickBooks and the process took a little longer than I had hoped. Once I got the ok from ********** that I could cancel my QuickBooks account, I did so - on June 3, 2025 (ONE DAY AFTER THE SUBSCRIPTION RENEWAL).Now, QuickBooks is saying they cannot refund the payment because the original purchase date was over 60 days ago. THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE DATE? SERIOUSLY? I just want the renewal amount refunded.

      On March 20, 2025, QuickBooks Online withdrew $10,828.68 from my business bank account to pay my quarterly 941 payroll taxes to the ***. QuickBooks claims the *** payment of $10,006.88 was submitted on April 2, yet the *** has confirmedmultiple timesthat no such payment was received. It is now June, and the *** still has not received the funds. They have begun adding penalties and interest to my account.I have reached out to QuickBooks support repeatedlyby phone and through their online portal. I submitted the *** letter three times through their internal messaging system and received no response. On the phone, Ive been passed between agents with no answers or accountability. Most recently, I spoke to a representative named ***** who claimed my account had a software glitch that caused black patches in the data, blocking the *** payment. He said it could be resolved in 24 hours, but only if I purchased a $749 Data Protection Plan.When I refused to pay to fix a problem caused by their own system, he said he could not help me and ended the call.This is unacceptable. I entrusted QuickBooks to process payroll tax payments on behalf of my business, and their failure has now put me at risk of federal penalties and legal exposure. They have not only failed to resolve the issue, but ignored multiple attempts at contact and demanded more money to fix their own software flaw.I am requesting immediate resolution: (1) proof that the funds were transmitted to the ***, or (2) a full refund of $10,828.68 so I can pay the *** directly. I also request that QuickBooks reimburse any penalties or interest caused by their error. If needed, I am willing to provide a sworn written statement detailing all communication attempts and conversations with their agents.

      Business Response

      Date: 06/19/2025

      To Whom It May Concern, 

      Thank you for the opportunity to respond. We worked closely with Ms. Niedergerke to address her payroll concerns regarding a tax payment made through QuickBooks Online Payroll. Through our investigation, we discovered that the payment of $10,006.88 had been incorrectly applied to Q2 2025 instead of Q1 2025 We promptly contacted the IRS to request that the payment be moved to the correct quarter and provided Ms. Niedergerke with a Q2 2025 941 transcript as proof of payment. Per IRS agent 1004282873, once the correction is applied, her account should be in good standing.

      We greatly appreciate Ms. Niedergerke’s patience throughout this process, and we remain committed to addressing customer concerns promptly and effectively. If there are any further questions or details needed, please feel free to reach out for additional clarification.

      Best regards,

      Over the past three months, I have experienced persistent and unresolved technical issues with the app on my iOS device, despite numerous attempts to obtain support from their customer service and technical teams.The core problems are as follows:The app fails to upload receipts, locks up frequently, and the screen regularly becomes unresponsive.I have contacted QuickBooks support multiple times over the last three months, totaling four hours and 52 minutes spent on the phone.Earlier in June I was issued case number ***********. Yesterday, I received an email from QuickBooks (see attached screenshot) stating that my issue was resolved. Following their instructions, I downloaded the new version of the app, but the exact same problems persist.I contacted support again today and, after another hour and 35-minute call (case number ***********), was informed that they all of a sudden they do not support the latest version of the iOS system. This is despite the fact that my phone, its operating system, and other relevant details have been known to QuickBooks from the very beginning.The iOS version in question has been in place since July of 2024. QuickBooks continues to advertise the mobile app as compatible with iOS devices (see photo) and makes it available on the App Store, but their support team now tells me it is not actually supported.I believe this constitutes false advertising. QuickBooks is promoting a mobile app as functional for iOS users, yet the app does not work as advertised, and their staff has admitted it is not supported on current devices. I am paying for a service that is supposed to include a working mobile appthis is not being delivered. QuickBookss engineering and technical support have provided no resolution. I am requesting the BBBs assistance for QuickBooks to either correct their advertising and App Store descriptions to reflect the apps true limitations, or provide an immediate and effective fix for iOS users.

Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
