SoloAssist contact numbers
After 17 years of having the same phone numbers, SoloAssist has replaced all phone numbers due to a high volume of random telemarketer calls, texts, and blank hang-up calls. Please use the SoloAssist contact page selections for all user requests and sales enquires.
Thank you for your understanding.
Current Issues
MYOB Connection - Login 2FA validation not working
We recommend changing your accounting system to Xero Accounting. It's far more robust and easier to use. We have always found the MYOB Team and MYOB's API connection difficult to work with. So we have now decided to not pursue fixing the MYOB connection and therefore dropping MYOB as a future SoloAssist connection. Try Xero Accounting.
We apologise for any inconvenience.
