When I called, I was told this was a known issue and "they are working on it." Well, I got an email last night to assure me people are working on it, and the next update wouldn't be until June 4. This connection has now been down since May 14.

It is June 11th and I am having the same issue as previously reported.

My account has been connected fine for years but my card was recently hacked and I got a new one with a new number and now Citi won't connect. I disconnected it and tried to reconnect it, but when I do I get this message that my "Records don't match" ...but I can login to my online account just fine. When I checked with Citi support, they referred me back to Quickbooks support. 

Even though my Citi Credit Card account was disconnected from Quickbooks, the Citi account online says the account with the new number is linked.

Ya, QBO Support is useless with this stuff. I spent a decent amount of time talking with Citi this morning. I think the situation is that you had need to change your default card. To do that you can try:

• Login
• Click on Profile, then go to More Settings
• Under More Settings, click on Default Credit Card & Nicknames
• See if you can change it.

My old card is still default and it won't let me save the new one. It shows it, but "Save" is greyed out and not functional.

Citi has opened up a case to investigate that part. Getting the right person to talk to at Citi was a nightmare as well; it took over 1 hour and 11 representatives to get to a person who actually understood my situation.

Let me direct you to the appropriate support team to assist you with connecting your Citi Credit Card in QuickBooks Online (QBO), Mike660.  

I recommend reaching out to our Live Support Team. They are equipped with specialized tools and resources to investigate the connection with your Citi Credit Card bank.

Live team couldn’t help me. 

Thanks for the reply. I went online and tried to change the default card, but I had the same issue as you with the save button being grayed out. I called Citibank support, and they said it wasn't the issue. However, the long story short is that they deactivated my existing online access and then had me re-register for online access using the new card number. Once the new online access was set up, I was able to return to QuickBooks and link the new account without any issues. Hopefully, this can solve your problem as well. Hope you have success!
