The past week or so I can't download transactions from Prudential.

I get the error "Your financial institution has rejected your request. [OL-301-A] Additional information from Prudential Retirement - 401K/403b/457: "

I called Prudential and they pointed me to Quicken.

I use Quicken Deluxe Release R51.10

    Hello Anja,

    Do you have an update on the status of this issue?

    I have been having a similar issue with Prudential 401k/Empower since about July 21st and my account was taken over by Empower effective April 1, 2022. I am getting a OL-304-A error with the message "Your financial institution does not recognize the account ……. Additional information from Prudential Retirement - 401k/403b/457; Account not found."

    This has been working fine for years until now. Very frustrating.

    Same error message for me as recently as today (8/11). Started mid to late July (presumably after an Quicken update).

    This has not been resolved for a long time now. Quicken isn't exactly cheap. We expect better service than this. When are you going to fix it?

    At the very least we need an update that indicates if there meaningful progress. Ideally there should also be a ETA to correct so that customers can set their expectations appropriately.

    My Quicken OFX log shows it connecting to ofx.prudential.com and receiving an "Account Not Found" error from Prudential's server. I'm not a Quicken expert by any means but it does not seem like something that could be fixed on the Quicken side.

    The actual customer of Prudential/Empower is going to be your employer who probably chose them based on cost and all of us are stuck with that choice. I don't remember seeing a multi-week Quicken outage with retail investment providers.

    A Quicken rep already confirmed in another thread it is on their end, express web connect essentially just logs into the site and "scrapes" the data from what is displayed, and there is an issue with that script not pulling the right data/fields. So your account is not found because it is looking at the line above or below the account number instead of right at it.

  • scott.in.az

    If Quicken is trying to scrape the website then that method won't work now because the account number isn't present anywhere. I don't remember if it was before, but I captured a HAR file just now clicking around Empower's site and there is no reference to the planidXsubplanXssn account number anywhere in the content or api requests. The Quciken download documentation on Empower's site doesn't look like it has been updated in several years but still shows that account number format.

    The site quicken's servers are hitting (ofx.prudential.com) is not the same we see when we log in.

    Prudential finally connected this evening (using Direct Connect) but unfortunately the previous month's of transactions (while connection was down) did not download.

  • acs2

    Progress, probably. Will further modification allow down load of the previous month?

  • jfclague
    jfclague Member ✭✭✭✭
    Options

    I doubt it. I manually added all the transactions during the downtime.

  • sgniwder

    I'm paying for a service with Quicken and this is not working as it should. To be down for over 45 days with no ETA is ridiculous.

    How do I get credit for the time that isn't working?

  • acs2

    it worked satisfactorily when I last downloaded. It did not download transaction during the ‘blackout’ period

  • jfclague
    jfclague Member ✭✭✭✭

    Finally got new transactions to download today but the previous one's did not download (I entered mine manually previously).

  • Drinkingbird

    Options

    Same here, not holding my breath for the previous ones to download, I entered them manually as they came in over the last couple months and made sure my balances are matching. Now to chat with quicken support tomorrow to get 2 months extension. I don't pay a yearly fee to have to enter nearly 100 transactions manually.

    @Quicken Anja Is there any update on this. My Prudential hasn't connected at all for months. Please provide some information or plan from Quicken. Thanks.

    Just a thought here but Empower has acquired Personal Capital, a competitor to Quicken. I won't post the link here but a simple google search brings up an Empower page marketing to Quicken users now. I don't have any proof but it certainly seems like that is why the QFX downloads disappeared and the OFX downloads have been broken for the last several months.

    I also use Personal Capital but they are completely different products. There really isn't any competition for Quicken and that is why I use both products.
