For several months I have received the EWC-DC Mismatch error message for Discover Bank. I have followed the instructions over 50 times and the account updates perfectly. How can I stop the error message coming up every time I do a One Step Update?

    Hello @Todd,

    Thanks for providing more information.

    Since the account is closed, I suggest creating a new manual account for this CD, transferring all the transactions to the new account, then deleting the original account that shows it is still connected to Direct Connect. You can view this FAQ regarding information on how to bulk move transactions between accounts within Quicken for Windows. It is advised to save a backup before proceeding (just in case).

    Please let me know how this goes!

    Hello @Todd,

    Thank you for providing that screenshot.

    What type of accounts do you have with Discover (Checking, savings, credit, etc.)? Do you have any hidden or closed Discover account(s) within your Quicken application?

    I look forward to your response.

    There is 1 open savings account and 12 closed CDs. Only the open account pops up during the deactivation/reactivation process.

    Thanks for trying. I have done that over 50 times before your suggestion and it does not help. It did lead me to look at the hidden accounts on the account list. 1 of the closed CDs is different from all the rest. It is closed yet still indicates it is connected by Direct Connect. (See screen shot) Deleting the account is the only way to change that, as far as I know. I prefer not to do that. Is there any way to change the connect method of a closed account when the online access set-up screen just says, "closed account"?
