How do I get past an error message "Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred, we could not fetch accounts from your bank." This is a new bank checking account with a national bank. On my bank's web site, the account is shown to be actively linked.
Likewise, on the QB side, the bank appears as a linked account. (When I open "manage connections" it is there.) However, it has a switch in the off position. When I attempt to enable it, I always get the same error stated above. I have cleared cache, done the private browser thing, but to no avail.
Btw, in QB I do already have a linked credit card account with this bank. Might this be a snag? Do I need to deactivate/reactivate... that is somehow manage connections of checking and credit card accounts simultaneously? Surely would appreciate being able to get this feed on my biz checking operational

My problem was solved apart from your advice -- not that it wasn't of worth. It seems it just too patience. It was activated on bank side, and after a few days I was able to enable it on QB side.
