taxpayer with single member LLC paid his last 2 estimated 2023 tax payments using his LLC EIN instead of his social. Now he gets a letter for underpayment of 2023 taxes. Any quick fixes here? On his Sch C we do list the ID number. He paid using bill-pay through his bank account.

I've heard of preparers phoning the PPL to get payments moved, but I've also heard that the IRS tool to move payments has been down. If your client doesn't want to pay you for dealing with this, then he can call the main IRS line to try to do it himself.
Tell him to use IRS DirectPay going forward, so he's forced to designate where to apply his payment.
This is a teaching moment for you to remind him to call you BEFORE he does anything tax!
