QuickBooks Simple Start Free 2008
I own QuickBooks 2007. I have invoices to send out today and I cannot because QuickBooks has blocked my ability to send email invoices in order to force me to upgrade to their 2010 product.
See, when a QuickBooks user tries to email an invoice, the QuickBooks product makes an Internet connection to one of their servers prior to creating the PDF and email to be sent using client information within QuickBooks itself. The problem now is when Quickbooks contacts the Intuit server, I receive a web page with the following text:
"Important! On May 31, 2010, the Intuit Billing Solution for QuickBooks and the free e-mailing service will no longer work with your version of QuickBooks 2007 software. In order to sign up for Intuit Billing Solution or the free e-mailing service, you must upgrade to a more recent version of QuickBooks. Discontinuing older versions of QuickBooks allows us to focus resources on supporting more current products, which are used by the vast majority of QuickBooks customers.
The result: a better customer experience for millions of QuickBooks users. To learn more about Intuit's discontinuation policy for all QuickBooks software, please visit
