Updating Standard Bank - not working

Hello. I can only agree. I am looking to change accounting packages because of this. This service is atrocious. We went with QBO so that we can download our bank records and this has not been working for months. 

Is anyone going to respond?

We'll help you update your bank, bryankimmel.

 

I can see the importance of downloading your bank transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO). We didn't receive a report about Standard Bank being unable to download. By the way, are you getting an error code? This will help me determine more precisely the cause of the issue. In the meantime, we can update your bank manually for the system to refresh its connection. To do so, you can follow the steps below:

 

  1. Go to the Banking menu on the left pane.
  2. Click on the bank account that you're working with.
  3. Select Update.
  4. If asked, enter your Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) credentials. Then press on Continue update.

However, if it's still not updating, I suggest reaching out to our support team to investigate further. They have the tools to pull up your account securely.

 

Also, there are times you want to enter older transactions, or the bank isn't automatically downloading for a specific period of time. Learn from this article how you can upload transactions in QBO manually: Manually Upload Transactions Into QuickBooks Online

 

Reach out to us if you have any questions regarding your bank transactions or if you need other help from us. We'll always make sure everything is taken care of.

Hi Are you a BOT?

 

Clearly you do n to follow the thread - this is an ongoing issue with Standard Bank

 

The stock standard response that you have given is not a solution but adds to the frustration as it shows that support does not read the messages posted

 

Kindly just fix the problem as it is on YOUR side and not ours!!!

 

Kind regards

Graham

Me too. My accountant uses Xero, and it can connect to Standard Bank.

I've had to download and upload CSVs since June.
Such a hack and time consuming to do for 3 business accounts.
All the the other banks connect perfectly.

The connection was fixed for a while (Jan to Jun 2022).
So I know Quickbooks can resolve this. Come on tech team... make us happy.

Can anyone connect to Standard Bank?


If there is anyone that can automatically connect, I'll try more methods.
But for now... from clearing caches, disconnecting the bank and starting afresh as if new bank account... I keep getting the same error.

As mentioned by my peer above, there's an ongoing investigation that users also encountered the same issue. Thus, it's the reason why the error persists. Please know that our team is aware of this matter and is currently implementing measures to fix it.
