    Similar experience as Peter K. Started getting 503 errors a few days back and still today, 10/17. Very frustrating.

    I've been trying to re-activate download as it stopped mid-September.

    From Account list, I select "Activate download: on one of the four LPL accounts.

    I enter Username and password and select Save to password vault. I get this error page with no error code, but a cute (useless) message; "Sorry. We encountered an error. (It's not your fault.)"

    Can anyone find a way to download a .QFX file? I find the following brief instructions, but never can find a location in the web interface to "Click Download to Quicken."

    Just touching base with those with this issue. I noticed Friday I couldn't get into the LPL website due to scheduled maintenance. I just tried connecting via Quicken - and it appears to be working! I'm connected and getting data, just going through it now to make sure things are as they appear.

    UPDATE 10/22/2024 (7:35amEST): Connecting to LPL connects, but it isn't 100%. I can see accounts held within LPL but the dollar values are inconsistent. Some are correct, some are off without explanation. Further, there are some accounts that don't contain the complete list of securities.

  • Likewise, I see that now some of my accounts are not downloading accurate (any?) positions for Deposit Cash Account and/or Insured Cash Account 'investments', leading to inaccurate account balances.

    I had similar problems with my LPL accounts. I finally performed a "Reset" of each account, forcing Quicken to renegotiate the download method. It would appear that Quicken (Win) is now using Express Web Connect for LPL, displaying LPL accounts in the "Simpli" format. The only way to go back to the standard register format is to turn off any automatic download, and post transactions manually.

    The problem I have encountered is that Quicken (or LPL - who knows?) doesn't seem to know how to handle cash balances in accounts. Instead, the cash quantity gets mashed up with one of the other holdings, resulting in erroneous (way too high in my case) balances.

    The one exception is my primary LPL account, which I have configured to keep the cash balance separate, so that the cash balance is displayed under the "Banking" heading. I hope these issues can be cleaned up in the near term.

    Same problem for me. 7 accounts. Can't update positions. Transaction downloads at LPL don't help since Quicken no longer tracks them.

    When will this problem regarding LPL Financial be resolved? I am using Quicken for Windows. This has been an on-going issue since October 2024. In addition, what is the Quicken priority level for resolving this issue? As a note, I have been using Quicken since 1994 and this is the longest outstanding issue that I have seen regarding Quicken. Please help. Thank you.

    Any updates? The lack of response by Quicken is pretty shocking. Over a month! it has been over a month and all we get is a generic response saying someone is working on it. When will this be fixed????

    Been using Quicken for years without issues. But this LPL issue has left me very surprised on how long this issue has dragged on with no resolution or meaningful updates. Furthermore, it appears this issue thread is not monitored by the Quicken Escalation Team, otherwise there would have been at least a progress report posted here. So, the question becomes; is this a Quicken issue or is it an LPL Financial issue?
