Is there any way to get rid of that annoying popup eSignatures window?

Every time I go to e-file returns, this big block shows up wanting me to use the 5 free eSignatures and then sign up for more. We do this through another means and will not be using this at all. I have to click close to get rid of that big box every single time I e-file. Anybody found a way to eliminate this?

After a billion times it finally asked if I wanted to close it for good.  I said yes.  Maybe your day is coming soon.

Don't opt for PS esignature. Personally the only PS add-on I use is PPR and find that I rarely have an issue with preparing and efiling returns.

That one thing is the most annoying thing ever to me, like a fingernail on a chalkboard. I know they like to promote their software but geez, there should be an opt-out check box at least!

I use e-signature a few times each year.  It's a great time saver for those long distance clients.

@taxes96786    Don't knock it if you haven't tried it.

Maybe...just maybe?  Intuit has listened and today I got a 'don't show this window anymore'  or something like that.  I was so quick to click yes, I didn't read it fully in case the annoying window changed its mind.  But that's what it promised me.

Your comment was of no use as no one asked for an opinion on esignatures; rather, how to shut the pop up off.  Keep your personal opinions to your self.

@taxes96786  I went back and forth from my HomeBase view to EF center.  Each time in EF Center I closed the ESignature screen.  After approximately 10 times I got a pop up question asking if I want to keep it closed.    Silly to have to play that game but it does work.
