Downgrading home & business to Deluxe - not recognised
ACARD2806
I purchased the Deluxe membership as my home & business membership was about to expire. I don't need home & business. The new membership is not recognized even logged to my account. I cannot download stock data neither to web connect. How can I get Quicken to log to my new membership?

Hello André,
Thank you for the response and for confirming which you like to refund. The US order has been refunded and you should receive a memo by email.
If you are using the Canadian website, there is a Canadian flag displayed by the Quicken logo.
This may help to differentiate between the two websites and avoid confusion.
A Membership can only be extended in the last six months of a subscription term. You can extend a subscription term by redeeming an activation code in a retail copy. However, this also can only be done in the last six months of your current subscription term. Therefore, multiple terms cannot be purchased and used at once to extend a membership.

However, applying an offer to an existing account would depend on the fine print, some offers may be for new customers only.
Also, the email offers will specify if they include the Canadian version.
I hope this helps!

, did you download and install the Q2020 product?
Merely buying it isn't sufficient.

Hi
@ACARD2806 ,
Where did you buy Quicken Deluxe from? What Quicken program were you running?

bought on line, but not thru the renewal option in the software

I tried signing with a "different user" but I got only one id: it's the same user and it brings me back to the old membership "expired" . It does not log to the new membership which shows "active" in green

Got the latest version downloaded for Canada 2020 - R25.22

Hi Quicken_Tyka
Just in case my direct reply does not get to you, he is the copy of what I sent you:
Hi
"My first purchase (on line direct to Quicken) was to renew my membership; I could not link to it when I was opening Quicken; it was still telling me that I had to renew ... it looks like I had to renew from the application, what I did, to make it work ... and it worked ... BUT it cost more; I've been using Quicken since late '80. I don't understand why I should pay more than the lowest retail price offered on different platforms. I'm asking you to cancel the fees for the cost thur the application (62.99$CND) and to apply the payment of the active subscription paid 49.99$CND.
If I don't hear from you within a week, I will put a claim for double payment for the same purchase at my credit card to get the 62.99$ payment cancelled.
Thanks & Regards
André Cardinal"
I am wondering why I could not activate my first purchase form "my account" on your website: the purchase was shown as "active" but my application on my computer could not connect to it. That's why I've redone the purchase thru the application, thinking that it would pick my "active" membership ... without striking me with a second purchase fee. That's why I claim the credit for the second purchase, ... which is not justified.
Tks
AC

Hello
@ACARD2806
Thank you for the response and for providing additional details.
The Canadian program has a different cost than the US version, I do apologize for any confusion or frustration that this has caused.
However, the US version cannot be purchased and used to renew the Canadian version.
I would be able to process a refund for the 62.99$CND as it's within the 30-day money-back guarantee window. However, this would remove the renewal for the Candian version.
I may also refund the recent purchase of the US version and you would then move forward using the Canadian version at the price of 62.99$CND which would not be refunded.
Another option is to move forward with the US product if that's applicable for you to do so.
Please let me know how I can further assist.

Hi Tyka,
Quicken Cnd and USA websites looks very similar and it is not evident to know from which website I'm purchasing, as either one you are buying from shows the same address (Menlo Park, CA 94025). My account shows a non connected purchase qualified "active" to which I cannot connect; it seems to be the US one. I don't need it, so please issue credit (to my credit card) for this purchase as it is useless.
Remarks & question:
1- As there seems to be confusion - I understand that you have a Canadian & a USA websites - I think you should be more specific when a purchase is in process such as indicating in the process which Country version is being processed. If there is a promotion - I usually purchase when there is a special announced - instead of giving information in fine print about the version promoted, it should be clearer, showing that information in capital print instead.
2- (Question) I receive publicity e-mails from Quicken on a regular basis all year around. You offer specials on many occasions. My question is that "If I purchase renewal when I see a special offer - let's say 4 to 5 month ahead of my renewal date - Would that purchase take effect at renewal date or at time of purchase?
Tks for your expected answer and forthcoming credit
