Your Live Chat has ended

Had an issue yesterday and used live chat to try to resolve problem.  After about 2 hours into this Chat I recieved a message 'Your live chat has ended'. 

 

Two hours working toward a resolution of a problem, that has not been fixed or resolved, GONE. 

 

MYOB despite having all my contact details, did not reach out to me in any way, to continue to identify or rectify the problem.  

Am I expected to go on chat again and try to work this out?

Along with the serious security issues of late (which is another issue) I am extremely disgruntled with MYOB, what has happened to Customer Service.

    Xero doesn't even attempt to decide whether these payroll items have been paid or not BTW. It just leaves it to you to be on top of it.

     

    This feature of MYOB is great when it is working. But you do not actually have to use it, there is nothing stopping you from just using spend money and assigning the payment to the liability account. This was how it was done prior to the introduction of the 'Pay Liabilities' feature and is how Xero expects you to do it too. (Xero's entire Payroll system is c..r..a..p..(tm) compared to MYOB's)

     

    If I were you, I'd simply be looking at the Social Club liability ledger account. Does it show the correct balance (ie has the $240 payment been accounted for and the balance is therefore correct)?  If it is correct then ignore the Pay Liabilities screen showing an outstanding October amount to be paid. On the next payment  see if the same thing happens and rinse and repeat until MYOB get their act together and fix it.

    Thank you,  trying to get my message accross has seemingly been difficult . You get it.

     

    It is a bug or a fault in my file as the internet was dropping in and out that day, that being said Myob has completely disregarded my situation.

     

    I am already under pressure from our new accountants to go to Xero, this will give them the leverage they need to convert us, if I cannot sort this.

     

    As for MYOB customer service its a joke, I did the chat as youve seen and raised a Support request to no avail.

    Have been a customer of MYOB since version 8 ~ maybe I should take this to fair trading!

    Hi Celia, on a slightly different issue (Cannot find live chat at all) how would I go about obtaining a Confirmation Code for Accounting V18?   Is that possible? One of my company files has become "read only" and it seems there is a 5 company limit?? Perhaps if there was a way to delete a company file?  I'm not sure if there is even a Confirmation Code issued anymore?
