I also cannot download my Discover transactions. Prompt to re-authorize only gives me the attached pictured result. I tried to deactivate account, the reactivate; same result. Help, please?

Hello @JillDDD,

Thank you for letting us know you're encountering this issue. Typically, this error is caused by something interfering with communication between the financial institution and Quicken. To troubleshoot, please follow these steps:

1. Pause or disable any browser extensions, such as ad blockers and pop up blockers.
2. If the issue persists, please try temporarily setting a different default browser.
   1. Do not use Brave or DuckDuckGo, since they are known to cause issues when authorizing accounts.
3. If you use a VPN, please turn it off.
4. If you use an antivirus program, check to see if it uses a Safe Banking feature. If it does, pause that feature.
5. If you use a firewall, check to make sure it isn't blocking communication.

I hope this helps!

I’ve been fighting with Discover reps all day. I was told they are no longer supporting the Quicken connection. So, until the account is moved to the Capital One site, no downloads. No surprise that Capital One would leave us high and dry.

Hello @Ryan.C,

Thank you for sharing your experience. To clarify, what is happening when you try to update your Discover account(s)?

When I check our internal tools, I can see an expired token error. Are you seeing an error message when you try to update the account(s)? If you do, what message/code are you seeing?

I look forward to your reply!

Hello. I don’t remember the code but it was asking for a reauthorization. When I tried I would get technical error notifications from Discover.

So, I tried to deactivate and reactivate with no luck. I received the same technical errors. The Discover site won’t even let me remove the Quicken authorization. And no one there is willing to help.

Again, Discover reps told me they are no longer supporting the Quicken connection.

Thank you for your reply,

What is the exact error you are seeing? If you're willing, please post a screenshot of the error message (with any personal information redacted). If needed, please refer to this Community FAQ for instructions on how to attach a screenshot. Alternatively, you can also drag and drop screenshots to your response if you are not given the option to add attachments.

Thank you!

We have experienced technical error. Please try again.

Discover Card account has already moved to Cap One. This error is when I try to connect my bank accounts still on the Discover site.

Sorry, something went wrong

We're unable to connect your account at this time. Please try again later.

This is a Discover Card account that is still at Discover

Thank you for your replies,

Which connection options have you tried (Discover Card, Capital One Card Services, etc.)? Which web browser do you use? Have you tried using an alternate web browser?

You mentioned one of the cards has been moved to Capital One. Have you set up Capital One credentials for it? Have you tried connecting it in your Quicken using one of the Capital One connection options?

Thank you!
