To start, do you see any error messages upon connecting your bank or notifications from your bank website? I'd also suggest you log in to their website to see if there are ongoing maintenance issues that hinder the application from connecting.
Once logged in, check for any updates, messages, or notifications. You can also reach out to your bank support to see if they have ongoing issues on their end. Moreover, here are some usual messages about:

I don't use PINACLE, but I do bank at PNC and since I upgraded to QB Simple Start, I can no longer sync my accounts. I've done the cache clearing etc. but eventually support told me that there's an issue connecting with PNC for many users. I'm still waiting to be contacted once it's fixed.
We value your time, and we are dedicated to resolving the PNC banking issue as quickly as possible, Lawmatt.
We appreciate you performing some troubleshooting solutions and contacting our support agent to better isolate the issue. I've checked our records and this is an ongoing issue where customers encounter an error message "Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred. Please try again." when connecting to PNC bank.
Since you have already contacted our Customer Support Team, they'll already add you to the list of affected users. Once there's an update on this case, they'll send you an email notification.
When you've successfully connected your bank and downloaded all the transactions, we can categorize them to help you manage your expenses accordingly. I'll be adding an article that will help you make sure your bank and credit card statements match: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Online.
We appreciate your patience on this matter. You're always welcome to get back to this thread if you have further questions about online banking or any QuickBooks-related concerns. Take care always.
