To me the disturbing part is not that they can but that they are purposely misleading people. We were told, "You will still have access to your QuickBooks data even without a subscription!" This post says exactly the same thing as "SLOVED!". What "SOLVED" needs to say is, "The data will always be yours but it is only useful with a subscription to QuickBooks Desktop as you will lose all access to use the software."

Message to Intuit: A Free Read-Only mode would be a real (and less dirt bagged) solution to this. Especially for us that moved to QB online!

Intuit is trying to trick people in to a false sense of security.
