I have been receiving error 4009 when trying to sync my bank account. Anyone else have this?

Hello there, swiftwired.

Thanks for reaching out and letting us know about your experience with the online banking feature in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

I understand that you have already tried some troubleshooting steps to fix the error 4009 and confirmed that your bank's website is not undergoing maintenance. However, to resolve your banking concern, I recommend getting in touch with our Customer Care Team. They can access your account securely and conduct a screen-sharing session to identify the root cause of the problem.

Also, please note that disconnecting a connected bank account in QBO is not advisable as it can cause issues with your bank transactions, such as duplicate entries.

Please feel free to keep me updated if you have any other banking concerns. I'm here to assist you at all times!

Thank you for the response. I will call live support then, and see if we can get this resolved. And, I did not "disconnect" my bank so to speak just re-entered the credentials as it suggested. I have had this issue since the beginning...so it is a bit frustrating. I will update this thread as soon as I get an answer from support.

Ok, so I have an update after speaking with technical support.

Error 4009 is currently a known issue with TD bank, and a fix is in the works but there is no timeframe as to when it will be fixed. Also, there is currently no direct workaround for this issue.

The only fix is to go to your bank and download in QBO or CSV format your missing transactions, then upload them to the platform for classification. For me, this worked with one small issue that I hope is resolved soon: once I uploaded the file it cleared my bank account balance (at TD) but the QuickBooks balance seems to be reflecting what is should. So hopefully once the normal sync is fixed I can reconcile accordingly and will not have issues as long as all transactions are pulled in and duplicates are excluded.

This is the best answer right now for this specific issue, so if you are having this issue as well, this is your answer.

If you are looking for additional information or to check the status of this case, I have the case number here:

Hi there, swiftwired.

I appreciate you for taking the time to share this valuable information with the Community. The details you shared will undoubtedly assist other users while our product engineers are working on finding a permanent solution to this issue.

If you have any other concerns regarding bank transactions in QuickBooks, please don't hesitate to leave them in the comments below. I'll be around to ensure you're taken care of.

A couple weeks ago it started with Error 355, then error 350 and then after I unlinked/relinked my accounts it changed to 4009.

Reconnected the primary account, but the others still show a 4009.

By the way, the option I chose was "TD Bank Online Banking"

There are quite a few in the list to pick from.

I'm wondering if this is due to having multiple accounts through TD Bank that it's pulling.

Seems as though I can only link one at a time due to this issue....

Allow me to provide share some information and help you get rid of the error so you can sync your TD bank account to QuickBooks Online (QBO), @MECINC. 

For security purposes, the system will need to pause for 60-100 min before you can attempt to reconnect your bank with QBO again. Otherwise, the system will trigger a security alert or reauthorization request on your bank.

When this happens I'd recommend reviewing your bank website and look for a security notification that you need to take action with or reach out to the bank support.

Once this is settled on your bank , you can reconnect and categorize the bank transactions.

 For guidance, you can check this article: Categorize online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

@MirriamM  I wished the person who helped me on Tuesday would have know THIS before he suggested I DELETE my account and connect it again. NOW I am experiencing this along with several other issues and tech support today told me there was nothing they could do and for me to just EXCLUDE those transactions.

Today is April 23rd. I also have the same issue going on since April 16th. Error code 4009. My  main bank has not uploaded. This is very frustrating. I have tried everything to reconnect. Nothing works. Appears qbo does not recognize the bank. By the way, this is TD bank.  Called help desk this morning. No time frame for the fix is available. Told the engineers have the problem but have a very heavy case load. I understand everyone is very busy but this is people' businesses. No excuse. Only work around, if it works, is to manually enter the transactions. That' alot of transaction in a weeks time and alot of extra work on my end. Quickbooks has the market cornered and needs to fix these issues in a timely manner.

Still nothing from QBO. Shameful company and customer support. (Incoming computer generated help copy and paste response)
