QuickBooks Point of Sale 2016 license
My store went out of business and I sold the assets to another store. Intuit would not honor the licenses I purchased for transfer, so the POS terminals were useless to them. The new owner and I both spent several hours with forms, chats and phone calls. Their technical support is a nightmare, where virtually know one can speak English clearly enough to be understood, and where no one has enough authority to do anything. The salesperson I bought the software from at Intuit has just vanished, not responding to my emails.
I will no longer purchase any Intuit product based on how they've treated me. I recommend that others read the license and consider carefully before purchasing anything from them.
Here is the text they sent, after I insisted on getting something in writing:
