Maryland Withholding rejected due to FEIN and CRN not matching

On trying to pay withholding tax to Maryland via QB Desktop Payroll (as I've done every pay period for 20 years), my payment was rejected twice this week with the following error:

 

Problem: FEIN and CRN combination does not match an account.

Solution: Verify your CRN with the state and update your company information in QuickBooks

Error Code: 900026

 

My FEIN and CRN are absolutely correct and have not changed.  I've spoken with both Intuit and the Maryland Comptroller's Office.  My instinct tells me this problem is at the Maryland end as I also had some trouble trying to file and pay manually through MarylandTaxConnect.  The Comptroller's office told me that they've received several other complaints and have referred mine to their IT department.

 

Is anyone else having similar issues? Has anyone found. resolution?
