QuickBooks offers a live chat feature that connects you with a support agent via text. This is especially helpful for account changes, settings issues, or general payroll setup guidance.

✅ 5. Follow Up on Existing Cases via Chat or Phone

If you have an open support case, you can follow up by providing the case ID via chat or over the phone. This helps QuickBooks locate your case history and continue where the previous agent left off. For case updates, you can always call 📞 1‑877‑684‑9216 or 📞 1‑877‑684‑9246.

✅ 8. Connect via the QuickBooks Community Forum
