Authenticate bank account
My bank accounts were previously connected to Quickbooks self-employed, however I am now getting the message below. When I try to click on "Authenticate account", nothing happens. Any ideas on why this is and how I can reconnect my bank accounts? Thank you in advance!

Hi Rachel, thanks for joining the Community - this prompt will usually appear when the 90-day Open Banking period has expired. Please check that your web browser has pop-ups & redirects set to allowed and then re-try the reauthentication. :)

We can try other troubleshooting steps when re-authenticating your bank, thecartoonman.
The problem you experienced might be connected to the cached data and site history that your browser has stored. Let's clear them so you can see bank updates. Let's begin by opening your account in a private or incognito session. You can follow the following shortcut keys below:
- Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
- MS Edge and Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
- Safari: Command + Shift + N
If you can successfully re-authenticate the account, you can clear the cache in your default browser to let it start browsing from scratch. Alternatively, use another supported browser instead.
In the meantime, you may add transactions directly to QuickBooks Self-Employed.
You can leave a comment below if you need any extra help connecting your bank account. I'll make sure to get back to you.

I'm having the same issue - can't figure out how to authenticate my account - nothing happens when you click the link and a google search has proved fruitless. I just want connectivity back!

What is frustrating is we get given all this nonsense on here and it then takes ages to resolve, it's a major issue that QB should be resolving in hours, not weeks.
To be honest, I am losing faith with the platform, I have had bank connection issues sine Nov'22 and they seem to think it's all been resolved.
