Merrill Lynch Benefits account shows $0 balance (401K)

For months now, my Merrill Lynch benefits account appears to update but shows a $0 balance. (It is not a $0 balance).

Some of the posts I saw said to set it up as a direct connect but that is not an option.

Help.

Thank you

  • I've been experiencing an ongoing issue with my Merrill Online Benefits accounts since August 15th, 2023. It appears that this problem is already known, so I'm surprised that the Quicken representative wasn't aware of it and asked for more information. It's very obvious to see that my balance dropped to zero on that date, and there were no error codes - just a zero balance across all my accounts with the same online ID. I tried deleting my KeyChain ID and re-downloading my account info, and while the balances were accurate on the connection screen after attempting to re-import, they still showed as zero once I accepted the download option from Quicken. Quicken claims that this is a Merrill issue, but this doesn't help me see my full portfolio. If I have to log in to Merrill every day just to see my balances, then what's the point of continuing with my Quicken subscription? I am ready to ask for a refund starrting on 8/15/23 when this issue started.
