We are having problems connecting Quickbooks to HSBC Hong Kong accounts. The system does not work and there is no response on the matter.

Let’s resolve the error you’ve encountered to connect your HSBC successfully, Trial User Confused.

There’s an ongoing issue with HSBC Hong Kong. Our subscribers encounter this error "Something unexpected happened and we couldn't connect to your bank" message when trying to connect or refresh the connection to pull up new transactions.

Our Product Engineering team is still working on fixing the connection between the bank and QuickBooks.

For the meantime, you can add your transactions from the bank by downloading them from your online banking account, then importing it to your QBO account.

Hi, could not manage to set up a direct feed with HSBC Hong Kong business account (multi currencies). Apparently, the problem is still not solved! Xero appears to be set up for direct feeds.

Thank you for the response, @KERSPI.

I checked the investigations list, and it turns out it's already resolved. We can do troubleshooting steps to fix the connection issue.

Most issues in QuickBooks Online are fix using a private window, and this won’t save any information or data.

Here's how to use a private window:

• Chrome: press CTRL + Shift + N
• Mozilla Firefox: press CTRL + Shift + P
• Internet Explorer: press CTRL+ Shift + P
• Safari: press Command + Shift + N

You can go back to your regular browser and clear the cache to avoid the error again. If that behavior still exists, I recommend using another browser to get this fixed.

For an option, you can manually upload the transactions in QuickBooks Online from your bank or credit cards.
