I recently observed this when I reconciled a Chase credit card. Reconcile was off by $799 or so. Sure enough, the opening balance was that exact amount when it should have been $0.

Is "it" Chase, or Quicken?  How is this being done?  Are you seeing specific transactions in your Quicken Accounts that increasing your balances?  Are we dealing with duplicate transactions ("deposits" presumably) or "new" transactions that you don't recognize?One source of error that's been mentioned in connection with the switch from DC to EWC+ by Chase is that the "Opening Balance" in Accounts gets changed.  Could that be the case here?
