Will Quicken direct connect bank bill pay work with E*Trade Morgan Stanley Checking acct

harris48154

Since Chase no longer supports bank bill pay, I am trying to find another bank that will. E*Trade Morgan Stanley checking seems to support direct connect and bill pay. Does anyone know if it will support Quicken bank bill pay?

what's the exact name of the Quicken Add Account you have setup ....

I think that I don't understand your question.

I have been paying my bills with Quicken bank bill pay and Chase bank. Chase has apparently dropped support for direct connect so I am no longer able to send payments from Quicken.

I am trying to find another bank that I can use and wonder if the Morgan Stanley bank through E*Trade will work.

Hi @harris48154

Can you tell me the exact name of the "Morgan Stanley Bank" - the name that is on the checks that you write from the account?  Is this the "Morgan Stanley - Cash Management" program?

I was asking if you have already setup a Quicken Account for … ETrade / Morgan Stanley and if so, what Name selection you clicked for the Add Account.  There is a list of all the financial institutions and if they offer “bill payment” - like old Chase, so we could look up the name … there is also an old thread somewhere that has a listing of all the FI that support bill payment.

I do not yet have an account at E*Trade / Morgan Stanley. I am trying to find out if such an account would work to replace my Chase checking account. They do say they support "Bill Pay" but I can't find anything that says Quicken bank bill pay.

I found this entry in that list of direct connect institutions:
57201 57201 57201 Morgan Stanley - Cash Management http://www.morganstanley.com/

But I don't know if that would include the Morgan Stanley checking account at E*Trade. I tried calling E*Trade to ask but can't get through. That's why I am asking here.

Here is the thread and a PDF listing generated back in 2020 - of banks offering Bill Payment features.

From what I see E*Trade bank is still Express Web Connect only, and didn’t change even though Morgan Stanley bought them.

Not the information that I wanted but the information that I very much needed.
Thanks very much, Chris.
