Unable to download transactions from Loan Depot

I am unable to download transactions and account info from Loan Depot using Quick Deluxe v6.11.0 on MacOS.

There are two Loan Depot entries in the list of financial institutions available to download transactions from and I have tried both without success.

Is anyone else seeing this same issue?

    If the issue persists

    If you are still unable to resolve the issue, please contact the affected financial institution's customer support for further assistance. There may be a block on the financial institution's side that may need to be removed.

    It looks like the mortgage company is actively blocking users from downloading transactions using Quicken.
    IMHO, I would not bother attempting to activate any loan or mortgage account for downloading. I would just simply set them up as "offline" (manual) loan accounts with a Scheduled Reminder to record the monthly payment from your checking account. 

    (Not discussing LOC or HELOC accounts here. They should be set up like credit card accounts)

    At least in Quicken for Windows, an online-connected loan or mortgage account does NOT have a transaction register. All data shown in the account come from whatever information the bank downloads to you ... if this process works at all.

    As a result of being connected, the scheduled payment transaction reminder cannot transfer the amount of principal paid into the (non existent) account register and must use a category, usually something like Loan:Principal, instead. The category seems to vary with the Loan Type you selected when creating the loan account in Quicken.

    Effective with Quicken Windows 2018+
    you can deactivate an online-connected loan account and regain full control over your transaction register.  However, you should still review the Scheduled Reminder (or Memorized Payee List entry) associated with the monthly loan payments to ensure they now transfer Principal to the loan account register and not to a Category.

    If you're a Q Mac user, you should be able to do something similar about setting up and maintaining an offline mortgage account together with a correctly calculated Scheduled Transaction Reminder for the monthly payments from your checking account.

    I contacted Loan Depot and they said that they do not allow third party software, like Quicken, to connect anymore. Bummer.
