I'm applying to M/B/B management consulting internships. Will they ask for official transcripts after they extend an offer?

Reason I'm asking is that I'm getting an error on my transcript fixed and the process usually takes atleast a semester to process at my school.

From what I've heard, MBB consulting firms will require a transcript during the interview process (although generally an unofficial will suffice). Consulting firms, especially the super elite ones like MBB, are big on that kind of thing.

Does anyone have experience with an MBB asking for an official transcript though?

I did not get asked for an official transcript. I submitted a PDF of my unofficial transcript that I downloaded from my school's registrar website. If there is an error, I would highlight it and include a note about what the correction will be, but I wouldn't just make the correction and submit that; prior to getting it changed officially, that could be considered lying, and MBB would immediately eliminate you from consideration if they find out you lied.

Regarding an official transcript, I did not get far enough into the process to have them request one, but I haven't heard of anyone needing to submit an official transcript.

I'm in the same position too. Unfortunately, I made the grave error of reporting the actual grade instead of the error on my transcript, so I don't know. Has anyone received an offer at M/B/B and was asked official transcript upon employment.
