Why do I have to subscribe to the Quicken now in I have bought it befor?

Dear Quicken owners, you have chosen the worst time to transfer the owners of Quicken to a subscription. I, like many self-employed, have big, big problems in my business. Many self-respecting companies are trying to help their customers in this difficult time. Quicken, on the contrary, complicates the lives of his clients. It 's unworthy to do.

See if a response from Tyka addresses your issue.

"Quicken 2017, just as other Quicken products sold during the previous 10 years, was sold with a 3-year connected services contract which is coming to an end. 

 The reason for the 3-year term is that there are very real ongoing costs associated with maintaining connectivity, purchasing data for connected services, operating cloud-based companion apps, security monitoring and management, and periodically revising the product itself to meet evolving security and connectivity changes with financial institutions. 

 

Thank you,

When you installed your current Q product, you greed to the "End User License Agreement".  Q would not have installed had you not agreed.

In that EULA it describes the "termination of services" agreement that's part of the EULA.  That termination of service happened yesterday.

And NOTE, that you did NOT buy Quicken.  You couldn't have afforded to buy Quicken.  What you bought was a License to run Quicken, subject to the EULA.

You've been getting notices for months about that termination of services ... so the current COVID situation really isn't any reason to be complaining.  You could have bought Q back in February.

There is nothing that says you have to upgrade to subscription Quicken.  Your version of Quicken will function just as it has for the last three years except you will now have to manually enter all of the transactions since online features are no longer supported.  Lots of users NEVER even use any of the online features, so there is nothing that prevents you from doing so now.
