Is anyone else having difficulty re-connecting bank account? My bank keeps authorising but quickbooks keeps sending me in circles

Hello Caitlin

Which bank are you referring to? Do you get any error number or message when you are trying to reconnect it?

Emma

I have been having problems with HSBC. I'm getting error 185 and a prompt to "complete secure connection". I have put in the security code from the OTP device and it just keeps saying that it's the wrong code.

Hi Charlotte

Thanks for reaching out to us.Can we ask when you go to sign into the bank what url do you use?We do have some reports of an issue with the OTP and HSBC Net

Can we also confirm if you are getting the code straight away or is it delayed in coming up,as it could be timing out.

Thanks

Emma

I also having trouble with one of my bank account. Funnily my other bank account accepted (from the same bank) with no problem at all. When I sign it to my bank account it shows that I've authorised both of my account (several times as I've kept trying). Error code 324, could i have some help please

Hello ildi,

Thank you for joining in on this thread - am I able to verify which bank provider you are with and the account type for the account which is receiving the error, i.e. Current, Savings etc. 

Thanks 

Thanks for getting back to me ildi - the 324 error you are experiencing is usually fixed with a disconnect and reconnect. 

To disconnect the account, go to Banking and select the pencil icon on the account you wish to disconnect, then select 'Edit account info' and tick the box to 'Disconnect account on save' on the pop-up panel that appears. 

Once disconnected, clear the cache on the browser  and then fully close and re-open the browser. To re-connect, go to Banking > Add account, and search for the Lloyds Bank Business Banking (UK) - Current accounts connection then follow the on-screen messaging to connect. 

Please let me know if the error persists following this. 

Fantastic, I’ve followed instructions and it’s working now, thank you so much 

Great to hear and thanks for updating to let us know that worked :) 

I have the same issue with my TSB account. It has worked in the past but no longer once prompted for the 'reconnect'.

I have followed your advice to this point and try to reconnect by re-entering all my back details. I get to a pop-up 'static-fdwidgets.intuitcdn.net' and it freezes.

I am getting error message 185 as well  Scotia Bank

Hello Trina B, thanks for commenting on this post, normally 185 is Error 185 means the FI is requiring an action on additional security measure. These are typically One Time Passcodes (OTP) or answering an security questions (MFA). Some banks may even require responding to an Error 185 for every attempt to retrieve transactions into QuickBooks. 

To get past the error:

Navigate to the Banking page and click on “Complete secure connection” in the notification banner under the account cards.

Follow the prompts, answering the questions or entering the One Time Passcode.

I have tried from the app and from google chrome which was suggested to me by a chat support on intuit app. Whatever size device I try from I get same error message about temporarily unable to connect. It’s been like this for months and is very frustrating. 

Hi Carla, thanks for joining this thread - which bank provider are you with? For troubleshooting purposes, please also try to reconnect the account by signing in through a private browsing/incognito window (press Ctrl + Shift + n in Chrome to open) :woman_technologist:
