Intuit is a private company, and they can charge whatever they want and set any terms they want. You agreed to those terms when you bought your subscription last year. If you don’t like the terms, don’t patronize the company.
Personally, I have a big problem with subscription services. I would rather buy a music CD and scan it into my own computer than subscribe to a subscription service or buy DRM protected downloads that will disappear if the company decides it doesn’t like my business. (Amazon recently canceled a few hundred accounts that were perpetrating review fraud. All of the account holders digital content vanished along with their reviews, even though they had paid for the content. It turns out that if you buy a book, you own the book, but if you “Buy” an e-book, you are only leasing it for as long as the content provider allows.)
if I needed QuickBooks for my home business, I would buy the software to install on my computer. It costs more, but I’m not held hostage to a subscription. I understand this is a philosophical discussion rather than an answer to your problem, but there isn’t anything I can do about Intuit’s subscription policies.
