Issues with the credit card reports - lack of customer service

I keep having various issues with Expensify, last month it wouldn't sync with QuickBooks or export properly to QuickBooks, now the credit card reports are not coming in properly - for some reason I have two credit card reports for January and I am not able to combine them. Also, the report titles just randomly changed. I have a particularly tight deadline to close the month and cannot ask the employees to upload their credit card receipts because of the absolutely chaotic way the credit card reports are displaying in the report view. I have been asking for assistance with this for 24 hours and am once again getting excruciatingly slow responses that are basically putting the onus on me to fix their glitchy product. I have followed the steps in the documents they have sent me via links, (even though I have told them that it hasn't worked). How can I get some actual help?

    @TDeGrace While I cannot help with how you can get expensify support. It seems that a few of the items you listed could be easily fixable. Could you outline a bit of what you're experiencing in more detail for us to understand? Screenshots, steps, etc would be awesome.

    Sure, this is what it looks like from one employee's perspective:

    I have blocked the employee's name - but this is the same employee and the same month

    I cannot fix the way the report name is coming in and I cannot move the charges from the report with the crazy title to the report with the better title, normally I could click on a charge and go to the drop-down menu (in edit expense) and move the charge but this is what I am encountering:

    It is greyed out, I cannot move this expense

    Hey @TDeGrace. I wanted to give this a second look because of how much I feel your pain with the support issues.

    Do you have statement reporting enabled at your domain level? Have you ever had it enabled?

    @Julia - it's enabled right now. Honestly, I don't know if it was enabled in the past, the person who used to do the behind the scenes work with Expensify in our organization is no longer in my department - so I am trying to learn the back-end of Expensify while attempting to close the month. What I will say the way it is displaying at the report view does not match the "formula" on the Statement Reporting page. But there seems to be something else going on with the reports that came in with the crazy titles beyond the crazy titles - we cannot edit them.

    So if you have statement reporting enabled, it won't allow you to move the corporate credit card transactions onto a different report. Is it possible to look at a users prior months reports to better determine if you've always had automatic statement reporting enabled? Whenever Automatic Statement Reporting is enabled, the corporate credit card charges usually flow onto their own report separate from reimbursable expenses.

    Hi @Julia, thank you so much for looking at this with me, I really appreciate it! I am not trying to combine the out-of-pocket or reimbursable expenses with the credit card expenses, I am trying to combine the two separate January credit card expense reports that were created in Expensify for whatever reason (both with different report names). Allegedly, the engineers are working on the problem now (fingers crossed they can figure out what is going on!), I did notice that one of the reports that had a less crazy name now has a completely different name now, so somebody is doing something in the background, it isn't me.

    Hi @TDeGrace - It looks like you've since reached out to our support team about this and we've raised the issue with our engineers. Due to the complexity of the issue, it's best to keep further communication about this in one thread with Concierge.

    As soon as there's an update, one of my colleagues will reach out to you on the most recent thread you have open.

    Thank you for hanging in there! We'll get this resolved soon!

    @Maddy Lewis, when I first made this post, I had already repeatedly reached out to the support team for help. Sometimes hours, if not days go by without a response from the Concierge. That is very frustrating, especially when you are dealing with tight deadlines. What makes this even more frustrating is the fact that I had problems with Expensify last month as well and encountered the same issues with the customer service response being extremely slow and at times insulting. I was repeatedly told incorrect information. I just don't understand why Expensify doesn't have a more robust customer service department.

    @Kadie Alexander @Maddy Lewis - I finally got a response from the Concierge about the work that the engineers have completed and I got no solutions! I am absolutely livid! I specifically asked if the engineers were looking at the totality of the problems I am experiencing with the credit cards and I was assured they were, but the answer I received shows that they only looked at the report title issue, not the fact that credit card reports are missing expenses, not the fact that I was unable to move expenses from the reports with the wonky titles, in short I have no resolution! In the meantime, now some of the credit card reports are now auto-forwarding - I received a February credit card charge for approval and the employee did not not initiate it! To top off my horrible experience with Expensify this month - once again I am unable to export to QuickBooks and am unable to sync! This is unacceptable! Please escalate this so I get a resolution today!
