That's entirely the point. Many of us don't want to pay the 1% transaction fee. That's why we choose to have ACH deposits made in 3 to 5 days. You people keep thinking we don't understand! We do understand. We just don't like the "options" you are presenting us. Pay a new fee when we know it basically costs intuit nothing to manage an ACH deposit, or stop allowing customers to pay in this manner. The third option is to go back to having ACH deposit through our bank account and pay the nominal $0.50 or $0.25 per transaction. ACH is Automatic Check Handling - it's not a wire transfer. It's actually how banks manage checks that are cashed/deposited anyway. Thus why it's a piece of cake to offer it to customers now. It's really just sad and frustrating how intuit is continually squeezing the little guy, the businesses they court for subscriptions, into paying fees for things that have been free and should continue to be free (or near free). Sure 1% is less than a credit card, but it's still 1%! For some this means thousands and thousands of dollars a year in an added extra expense that we were given 30 days notice about. And during tax season when switching software platforms will be near impossible.
