 Reviews and testimonies about QuickBooks
1 Debbie (Jacksonville, FL) 1 star review
QuickBooks has no customer service. Their on-line “chat’ doesn’t work at all they
are false advertising by allowing a computer “fix” service to advertise on their
“support” page who want to change money to “fix” your computer. My computer is
not broken, QuickBooks does not have a number to call for questions. They are
not helpful in the least. I’m looking for a different company. They are not user
friendly.

I tried to rep my new CC ( we run payroll through QB ) it would not enter. I called
and spoke to a rep as we tried to enter it using different Safari vs. Chrome,
restarting laptop etc. etc. The rep inform me that QB is doing a system change
over and that is what causing the glitch. After the first portion of the call which
lasted 49 minutes, I’ve been transferred to a tier one rep. The tier one rep would
not speak to me directly but instead is standing next to 1st rep speaking to him
and the rep is relaying everything I am saying and back and forth.

I been trying to contact customer support and literally there is hell to go through
to just get their number. On top of that there is no number to call they force me to
choose “call back”. They never did for hours and when they did the agent hang
up on me. Horrible, horrible to work with QB online. They made it so complicated
comparing to the Desktop. Help serves for nothing. Very confusing and the
simplest issues QB Online is making extremely hard.

Absolute trash. I’ve been lied to 13 times in 4 business days. DO NOT USE
THEM. I am absolutely moving to another accounting system tomorrow. Their
support people make up “ policies” at the free will. I was told after closing an
account that I’ve had for 3 years that they would carry the credibility to our new
account. Well, that didn’t happen and despite not having 1 SINGLE ISSUE with
my payments in 3+ years, they’ve held 2/3 of my payments this month causing
hundreds of overdraft fees and financial issues.
5 Ezezew ( Saint Peters, MO ) 1 star review
This would be the worst accounting package that I have ever used. I have been
using this company for last 7 years. Currently I found out I have been charged for
none active contracts for the last 4-5 years. Contractors wasn’t active but been
charge over $8,000. When I call why I have charge for this? They said that this
contractors show as active in the system. I said even though no check or 1099
been written to this contract? They didn’t even care to give any credit. I spent
about two hours to resolve the issue but got nothing.
