What Chicagoland banks still support Quicken Direct Connect??
[Removed-Personal Information]
Hello @endmaker,
Thank you for reaching out to the Quicken Community with this question.
My internal systems show that there is one instance of Chicagoland available for online banking services, and this instance only offers Express Web Connect. However, you can reach out directly to your Financial Institution for more information, it is recommended to request to speak to a tier 2 representative or a supervisor as they are generally more familiar with third-party applications such as Quicken.
I hope this helps!
@endmaker -
By "Chicagoland" are you referring to a specific bank or are you referring to the geographical region?
If you are referring to a specific bank, then as noted by @Quicken Jasmine there is only one listing that supports Quicken and they support Express Web Connect only…Chicagoland Electrical Industry http://www.ceicu.com/. But their website no longer exists and per Google they were a credit union that is no longer in business since they merged with Great Lakes Credit Union back in 2013. I'm guessing this listing should probably be removed from the FIDIR list. (BTW, Great Lakes CU supports Quicken but with Express Web Connect and Web Connect, not with Direct Connect.)
If you are inquiring about the Chicago area geographical region…which is my assumption (I am originally from northern IL so I know that is what "Chicagoland" usually refers to):
Wells Fargo, US Bank (for a monthly fee), PNC Bank and Midland States Bank offer DC, to name a few.
There are now also investment companies like Fidelity Investments that are not officially banks but which offer many banking services like checking, bill pay and savings options (both insured and uninsured options).
Perhaps your best bet is to write down a list of banks that you would like to use. Then search your hard drive for the FIDIR.TXT file. Search for the banks names in that file. Look for DIRECT in the bank listing. If you also want DC Bank Bill Pay included look for PAYMENT&DIRECT. Here are examples of what to look for….see the bold font words.:
