Hello Arran,

 

From the screenshot, I can see you are attempting to connect through the personal Santander option. Could you please go to add account and search for Satander in the bar? This should give you an option for Santander Business Banking. Please try to connect through this, and let us know if you are able to connect.

 

Thanks,

 

Talia

Hello ArranW,

 

Does QuickBooks ask for the same information as Santander's website?

 

Thanks,

Yes, apart from you only enter 3 random digits of the passcode and registration number when you log into Santander online

Hi. I seem to be having a very similar problem. Same error codes, same everything but I am definitely trying to connect to my business account on Santander. The only thing I can assume is that I have two business accounts and one business savings account under the same login. Would this be the cause because I can't find any other. 
Thanks

Hi there, Sacha Green.

 

You'll have to make sure that you're using the correct login credentials in connecting your Santander Bank. This can be the reason why you were not able to connect your bank.

 

Please let me know how this solution works on your end.

Hi, thanks for the response. I can assure you that all login details are correct as far as I can work out. 

I am signed it to the Santander Account, I am using my personal ID (10 digit number), passcode and security number. I have checked, rechecked and again checked everything is matching and I still can't connect the account.

Hi Sacha, 

 

Can you try connecting the account in a private (incognito) browsing window? Let me know if you are still getting the same error codes when trying to connect there.

Got it thanks. Turns out the 'Santander' that comes up automatically is for personal and you have to put it in manually to see the 'business' section. 

Thanks for your help

Hello - i'm getting an error when I try to connect to Santander. 

 

I've tried to go on incognito and this doesn't help.

 

Attached also the screenshot

 

 

 

Something unexpected happened and we couldn't connect to your bank.

Try signing in again, and check for typos and other errors. If that doesn't work, try signing in on the Santander Business Banking (UK) site. (530)

Hi All. I have newly signed up to Quickbooks on line. Following all the promises. I followed the logo'd link to join my Santander Business Account to my Quickbooks. Mysteriously I am then locked out of internet banking. After 90 mins on the phone with Santander support I am told that it isn't possible to link the accounts. THis is because of the requirement to enter random numbers and text. Apparently Quickbooks have formally been told this time and again, but will not remove the link within the software... NOT a happy customer as a result!
