Online connection to Discover

phakanson

I did not read all instructions fully on the new online connection for Discover; instead, I tried to reset the account and it appeared to be locked up (screen was grey/disabled). Then I deactivated the account and set it up again. This also resulted in the screen being grey/disabled. HELP. What do I need to do to get connected to Discover?

Hello @phakanson,

Thank you for letting us know you're encountering this issue. To help troubleshoot, I checked our internal tools, and it looks like you haven't updated your Quicken program in a while. Since Discover did recently update how they connect with Quicken, it's quite possible that the outdated version of the program is the cause of this problem.

To correct the issue, please backup your Quicken file, then install the current version of Quicken. You can use the article linked below for instructions on how to manually update the program and to download the current update patch: https://www.quicken.com/support/update-and-patch-20182019-release-quicken-windows-subscription-product/#section-windows-2 .

I hope this helps!

@Quicken Kristina

That helped a little. I can log into my Discover account, but after I select to link it, I get error

HTTP Status 400 – Bad Request

Quicken Kristina

Thank you for your reply,

To help troubleshoot, please provide more information:

Are you logging into your Discover account on their web page or directly in Quicken?
Are you seeing that HTTP Status 400 error in your web browser, or in Quicken?
Which web browser are you using?

I look forward to your response!

Discover shows my account as linked; but Quicken does not. I receive the above Bad Request status in the final step of linking.

Quicken Kristina

Hello @sh10056,

Thank you for letting us know you're also seeing this issue! To help troubleshoot, please answer the questions in my earlier post:

I look forward to your reply!

@Quicken Kristina

To answer your questions:

Are you logging into your Discover account on their web page or directly in Quicken? Logging into Discover via Quicken from within the Online Services tab and selecting Set up now.

Quicken launches a web browser (Chrome) and requires me to log into my Discover account. I successfully log in, after providing my credentials and MFA security code. Then I get an Authorization Agreement page which I agree to. I'm asked which Discover account to link. Since I only have 1, it automatically selects it. I click on Connect Now and that's when the error code comes up.

2. Are you seeing that HTTP Status 400 error in your web browser, or in Quicken? On the web browser (see screenshot above in #1)

3. Which web browser are you using? Chrome

Hello, I am seeing the same symptoms as phakanson. FWIW, I also use the Chrome browser. I do have three Discover accounts (1 credit card, 1 online savings, 1 CD) instead of 1.

When I get "HTTP Status 400 - Bad Request" message in the browser, the Quicken "Add Account - Sign Into Discover Card" screen is still sitting there waiting for the accounts to be authorized. Meanwhile, the Discover web site shows that all 3 accounts have been authorized on the Third Party Access page. If I wait about 5 minutes or so, the Quicken Add Account screen gives up and says "Sign into Discover Card failed. Try again" That screen also says "The sign in failed due to a timeout or connection error"

One thing I did notice is that on the Discover account selection screen, the account selection choices are all selected to be authorized, AND are all greyed out. I can't do anything there but accept that all 3 accounts will be authorized (which is what I want), and then click on "Connect Now" - and then the "Bad Request" screen shows up.

I have tried this procedure starting with all 3 accounts already authorized at the Discover web site, and also have tried it starting with all 3 Discover accounts not authorized. The same thing happens either way.

tompfr

I should have tried this before, but the procedure does work when I use Microsoft Edge as the browser instead of Chrome (I set Edge as the default browser). All 3 accounts are now enabled for Quicken downloads using the EWC+ connection method, and "Discover Card" as the FI. So, for now at least, SUCCESS!

Quicken Kristina

I'm glad to hear trying a different web browse corrected the issue!

@phakanson

https://community.quicken.com/discussion/comment/20537780#Comment_20537780

If you haven't already done so, please try temporarily setting a different browser as your default, and test to see if that resolves the issue.

Thank you!

phakanson

@Quicken Kristina I switched my default browser to Edge. It did allow me to complete the sign in on the web and received the message "Your accounts have been authorized successfully!". However, when I went back to Quicken, it is still trying to sign in. After a few minutes, I get the message "Sign into Discover card failed". I tried a couple of times and still get the failure message.

Quicken Kristina

Thank you for your reply,

That error typically means something is interfering with the communication between the financial institution and Quicken. Do you use a VPN? If so, please try turning it off. Do you use an anti-virus and/or a firewall? If so, please check to make sure they're not blocking communication.

Thank you!

phakanson

@Quicken Kristina I decided to add Discover instead of doing an update and it worked! I still had Edge set as default browser.

Quicken Kristina

Thank you for the follow-up,

I'm glad to hear that adding instead of updating worked!

If you need further assistance, please feel free to reach out!

manddsokol

I switched browser to Microsoft Edge and it still gives me same error - any other suggestions?

Quicken Kristina

Hello @manddsokol,

Thank you for letting us know you're also encountering an issue. To clarify, are you seeing the HTTP 400 or a different error? If it's a different error, what is the exact error message you are seeing?

Do you use a VPN? If you do, try turning it off.

Do you use an antivirus? Some antivirus programs include a safe banking feature that automatically redirects banking sessions to a custom browser. If you use an antivirus with that feature, please pause it.

I hope this helps!

manddsokol

it is the HTTP Status 400 error and I do not use antivirus software nor VPN

Quicken Kristina

I checked our internal tools and can see you're trying to connect to zzz-Discover Card Account Center. That connection option is no longer active. That may be why you're getting the HTTP 400 error.

If that is the cause, then you can resolve it by following these steps:

Backup your Quicken file.
Deactivate the problem account.
Navigate to Tools>Add Account.
Search for Discover Card.
Follow the prompts.
When you get to the Add/Link screen, carefully link your account to the correct nickname in Quicken.

Let me know how it goes!

manddsokol

I did the steps as you laid out, I still get the error

HTTP Status 400 – Bad Request

just after authorizing the account on the discover site

manddsokol

this is the first part of what is on the http line:

I am having the same issue.

3. Which web browser are you using? edge

How can i get this fixed..

Quicken Kristina

Hello @kani,

Thank you for letting us know you're seeing a similar issue. To help troubleshoot, please provide more information:

Is this happening on a personal device or a work device?
Have you paused any browser extensions, such as ad and pop-up blockers?
Have you tried using an alternate browser?
When you get that error, have you tried copying the URL and pasting it into a different browser?
Do you use a VPN?
- If you do, have you tried turning it off?
Do you use an anti-virus and/or firewall?

I look forward to your response!

No luck with setting Edge or Chrome as the default browser. Then I set Firefox as the default and it worked!?

Quicken Kristina

Hello @sh10056,

Thank you for sharing! I'm glad to hear that using Firefox worked.

Browser extensions and settings can sometimes interfere with the connection to Quicken. That is why changing browsers can sometimes resolve the issue.

Thank you!

rrjeanes

I have been having exactly the same issue as described by others above. I had tried using both Chrome and Edge. After seeing someone else post they had success with Firefox. I tried with Firefox and I too had success. One thing I noted that was not described above, the HTTP STATUS 400 — BAD REQUEST error message is from services.quicken.com. It would seem this is a quicken problem because Discover has been approving the request but quicken has not been getting the message.

Quicken Kristina

Hello @rrjeanes,

Hi Kristina,

I suspect you didn't pick up that my problem was solved by using Firefox.

In response to your questions in case it might be of help:

Is this happening on a personal device or a work device? A personal devise
Have you paused any browser extensions, such as ad and pop-up blockers? No
Have you tried using an alternate browser? Chrome failed; Edge failed; Firefox worked
When you get that error, have you tried copying the URL and pasting it into a different browser? No. I don't see what that would accomplish?
Do you use a VPN? No
- If you do, have you tried turning it off?
Do you use an anti-virus and/or firewall? AV no; firewall—only as provided by Windows and Chrome

Quicken Kristina

Thank you for your reply,

I'm glad to hear that you were able to connect using Firefox.

The additional information is useful, since it can help determine what is causing the problem. Since switching to a different browser has been effective for most people reporting this issue, this suggests the problem is most likely caused by a browser setting or extension.

Thank you!

pbarrow

Switching my default browser on my mac to safari (was chrome) fixed this for me. I was also getting a 400 bad request previously when Quicken was trying to use chrome.

Quicken Kristina

Hello @pbarrow,

Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm glad to hear that switching to a different browser corrected the issue!

Thank you!
