    I am unable to update from my Merrill Lynch account although it's been working for months. The message is that Quicken has received unexpected information. I have tried from two different systems....and I've validated my quicken files. Version R37.66 Build 27.1.37.66

    Same here (OL-293-A). Noticed it last night (1/10/22) when I tried a one-step update. Not working this morning. I logged in to the website, but didn't see any unusual pop-ups or pages that are outside of the normal welcome page. I hope Merrill didn't pull the plug on Direct Connect.

    Having the same trouble like other post, error (OL-293-A) on all accounts. States 'unexpected information was received from your financial institution'.

    I am also having an issue connecting to Merrill, but am getting OL-295-A

    (Appears to be fixed now)

    I just started getting this error today, too.
  • Member ✭✭
    Does the team have an ETA on when this will be fixed?
  • Quicken Windows Subscription Member ✭✭✭
    attempted Merrill update which returns error 293_A. I logged directly into my Merrill account and noticed that a number of newly designed webpages on the site went live overnight.

    Same issue here OL 293 with ML. all other brokerage accounts and bank accounts working (although i reverted to previous quicken R37.66 version due to other update issues which occurred over weekend).
    all win 10 settings correct. is this quicken or ML issue?

    Count me as another receiving  ol-293-a  (for a couple of days) when attempting to update merrill accounts. I've sent in the logs and bookmarked the community alert.

    11/11 and 11/12 have been unable to update Merrill Lynch accounts. "Unexpected information" and OL-293-A error. Have not had such error over the years I have had Quicken.
  • Quicken Windows Subscription Member ✭✭✭
    The OL-293-A error persists as of 6:30 AM this morning. Like Jeanne, log files sent and community alert bookmarked.
