What is going on with Valic. It used to work fine but haven't been able to download since August

Now Valic says they no longer will support Quicken. Maybe because of the Exquifax data breach

If you talked to VALIC and they say they are no longer supporting Quicken, then there's not much your fellow Quicken users can add here. You might want to find a financial forum on which to ask that question.Quicken Mac Subscription; Quicken Mac user since the early 90s0

The current QM2017 fidir.txt file has this entry for Valic:
09880 09880 09880 VALIC http://www.valic.com 1-800-448-2542
Which shows Valic supporting the Direct Connect download method.

Now, the question is, which information is correct? I'd check with Valic again to see if you get the same response from a different support person.-splasher using Q since 1996 - Subscription - Win10

It is on your local harddrive and is very probably hidden, so you have to tell your OS to show hidden files.splasher said:The current QM2017 fidir.txt file has this entry for Valic:

It just means that Quicken thinks that VALIC supports Direct Connect and is active. You can tell the same thing by attempting to set up a new account and see what connection options are not grayed out. If VALIC has turned it off on their end, it might take Quicken a while to catch up with the fact that they've stopped supporting.splasher said:The current QM2017 fidir.txt file has this entry for Valic:

I agree with splasher... call them again and see if you get the same answer. Maybe ask to talk to a supervisor.Quicken Mac Subscription; Quicken Mac user since the early 90s0 -
After over a month, it's finally working for me! Used all caps for my login, but not sure if that made any difference.0
