Let me help you connect your bank account, Danni_owen.
We'll have to ensure that we're entering the correct credentials.
However, if it's entered correctly and you still encountered the same error message, this unexpected behavior can be caused by too much cache. We'll perform some steps to fix it. To start with, open your account using an incognito window. It's the best spot to identify browser issues. These are the shortcut keys:
If you're able to connect the bank account, go back to the regular browser, then clear the cache to refresh it. It's advisable to delete them periodically to avoid issues like this.
Also, you can use a different browser to help us narrow the cause of this behavior.
Once it's connected, you can categorise the transactions.

Thanks for dropping by the Community space, danni_owen. I want to make sure this gets sorted out.
Is this your first time setting up online banking for this account? Can you verify the name of the bank account you are trying to connect? Any additional information will get us closer to the resolution.
If it's a new connection, I recommend validating the credentials first on the financial institution’s website. Once verified, try connecting bank account again on your QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) account by following the steps below:
Learn more about the process by checking out this article: Connect bank and credit card accounts to QuickBooks Self-Employed.
Once your bank account is connected and downloads transaction, you can now review and categorise your transactions. You can create rules to speed up reviews on your data.

I have exactly the same problem.
The problem started when I went to renew the links Natwest, Lloyds and Paypal following my first 90 days on QuickBooks - I am now looking for an alternative system
Sorry to barge in Danni bit I would like to ask Kristine Mae how you clear the cache on an iphone ?
I only have QB on my i phone not on my desktop.
I only use QB to send receipts to my accountant and they are the reason they need my bank balances connected to QB
Thanks for joining the thread, @Davidjjbreese. Let me share the steps on how you can clear your cache in your iPhone.
The Reset App Data or Refresh Data options may appear depending on your device. Clearing the cache in your web browser is similar to this procedure. Your app collects cache (cookies) to save you time when loading repetitive data and images. Sometimes, these files can often become outdated or corrupted, which will cause issues like not opening your company information or app crashing.
To begin with, here’s how:

I am having this problem with my Jetblue Barclays credit card. The account is linked, but I validation is failing so I cannot access transactions. I have cleared my cache and tried on 3 different browsers to no success.
Your efforts in performing the troubleshooting procedures are appreciated, carly. Validation issues can be challenging, especially when you need immediate access to your financial information.
Together, we'll systematically determine the potential cause of this problem and restore your full account visibility as quickly as possible.
Before anything else, can you confirm if you encountered specific errors or error messages when authenticating your account? This information will enable me to offer a more precise solution.
There are several potential reasons why you're unable to complete the validation process. It could be related to issues with your bank or recent changes to your bank account settings. In this case, I recommend logging into your bank or credit card's website. This allows us to verify that your login credentials and your bank's website are working accordingly.
Then, do the following:
For now, I recommend manually importing your bank transactions using a CSV file format. This approach allows you to continue tracking your financial activity and ensure no transactions are missed during the authentication issue. Before you proceed, please be aware that since your bank account is already linked, there is a possibility of encountering duplicate entries when the connection of your credit card account is restored. If this occurs, you can easily exclude those transactions.
I'll leave these helpful articles you can reference later to provide useful context that can help streamline the process of categorising and managing your transactions:
