Hello there, Zxx.
 
Could you please confirm whether you want to remove the notification about upgrading your feed or if you need to disconnect the bank feed completely? Knowing this would help us provide the appropriate solution to your concern.

This is much like other issues people have with QBO.  It is much more important to them to upsell you and force you to make unnecessary clicks for their google love than to show any level of respect for the professionals they "serve."

Their responses are consistently "Follow these useless instructions that actually solve a different problem" or "we have absolutely no control over our system...suffer (ie send feedback that will be ignored)."

There are too many more threads for me to continue...

We need the option to turn it off. I want to easily see open/past due invoices and if I want to send a reminder, I'll do it myself. I am a bookkeeper not a computer programmer. Keep Quickbooks simple!!

Complete rewiring of our brains (as it relates to accounting, Intuit, QBs, QBO, etc.) was not necessary. 

You have gone to every possible length to ensure utter disgust from so many clients by:

1. Dumbing down the software until it is almost unusable, and 

2. Wasting time developing AI tools that are forced, without regard for the time and resources you are COSTING us, your customer.

I'll save myself some grief - and tell you how AI sums up the Intuit circumstances - as of today - 12-16-2024:

"In conclusion, based on the available information, it appears that Intuit has a significant de facto monopoly in the personal finance software and small business accounting software markets, but its dominance is not absolute and may be subject to change over time."

Do us all a favor and be the change WE (the paying customer) want to see.

Like so many others, I found this thread looking for a way to turn the business feed off. 

I am beyond frustrated with QBO. I have many customers with inventory and PO's and other features that QBO is not good at handling. 2 of them left QBDT for QBO because QBO sales rep told them it would be fine. It's not. Besides all but threatening customers to drop desktop, many things in QBO just suck.

This business feed is one of them.

The more things they put on pages, the more time the page takes to fully load. I can't tell you how many times I click on the wrong thing as I'm trying to work quickly and efficiently, but the page hasn't finished loading all its stupid crap, and that means that my click was actually in the wrong place as the page continues to load. 

Intuit takes the time to revamp reports which didn't need revamping, and are now more difficult to customize- while ignoring basic functions and/or listening to customer feedback. 

I wish someone would develop a decent replacement priced similarly. I would have all of my clients drop QBDT and QBO in a heartbeat, and I bet I'm not the only one. Intuit, you really should start paying attention to customer feedback. Or when a comparable software is released, you're going to see a mass exodus as we all leave. For those of us who own firms, that also means moving all of our clients as well. You would lose 42 clients by losing me. I believe 14 who pay for an annual subscription for desktop, and the rest on QBO Plus or Advanced. And I'm a small firm...

This lovely new gen showed up on my screen this morning.  No option to turn it off.

How about this, Intuit.  Instead of forcing stuff on us we don't need or want... fix things like:

Subtotals - Especially after Discounts.

Sales Tax Calculations.  I should NOT have to set up duplicate items that are taxable to make things work -

Popups - Quit advertising when I'm trying to get work done.

Anything "AI".  An option to at least turn it off.

Reminders - I am perfectly capable of checking my overdue invoices.

Before the PC version programmers all retire, have them teach the new coders about accounting.

Up until now I could still "X" out of all the boxes in the business feed and at least clear if off my screen, mostly. It was annoying I had to do that, but it was an option. A few weeks ago, the "X" was gone and replaced with an ellipsis menu and on that menu was an option to “snooze for 2 weeks”.  Even better, now I can get rid of it for a couple of weeks at a time. Well, yesterday all the business feed boxes popped up again, and I was able to "snooze" all of them but 1. The menu for this one box has no “snooze” option. So now, I have this one box under the business feed, that I cannot get rid of. As a result, literally the top 1/3 of my screen is just blank white space. I got on chat and of course it's the usual response, send feedback to the development team... blah, blah, blah... I am so irritated right now.
