Good morning. Just received OL-293-A error when attempting one-step update with Merrill Lynch. Anyone else having the same problem? It just started today, 1/11/22.

I am unable to update from my Merrill Lynch account although it's been working for months. The message is that Quicken has received unexpected information. I have tried from two different systems....and I've validated my quicken files. Version R37.66 Build 27.1.37.66

Same here (OL-293-A). Noticed it last night (1/10/22) when I tried a one-step update. Not working this morning. I logged in to the website, but didn't see any unusual pop-ups or pages that are outside of the normal welcome page. I hope Merrill didn't pull the plug on Direct Connect.

Having the same trouble like other post, error (OL-293-A) on all accounts. States 'unexpected information was received from your financial institution'.

I am also having an issue connecting to Merrill, but am getting OL-295-A

I just started getting this error today, too.
Jeremy Kruse
Does the team have an ETA on when this will be fixed?

attempted Merrill update which returns error 293_A. I logged directly into my Merrill account and noticed that a number of newly designed webpages on the site went live overnight.

Same issue here OL 293 with ML. all other brokerage accounts and bank accounts working (although i reverted to previous quicken R37.66 version due to other update issues which occurred over weekend).

Still not working as of 5:30 PM ET. Could we get an update, please. What is causing the problem? Is it on the Merrill end or Quicken?
