Quicken Closes Unresolved Error Rather Than Fix It - BYDDF
On June 11, 2025, I posted a detailed discussion titled “Incorrect Stock Split for BYDDF”. Instead of resolving the issue or even responding, Quicken elevated support simply closed the discussion, preventing any further follow-up or community input.
As I explained in that post (reposted below), Quicken’s data feed mishandled BYD Company Ltd.’s corporate actions—confusing two distinct securities:
- BYDDF (Class H shares, OTC)
- BYDDY (ADR)
Quicken’s feed incorrectly applied a stock split on June 10, 2025, based on the ex-dividend date, even though the shares were not payable until July 29, 2025. This is a basic mistake when handling OTC securities and ADR dividend equivalents. Yesterday was the payable date for BYDDF (highlighted screenshot), but Quicken's corrupted data feed did not download the action.
The error remains unresolved.
Even worse, Quicken Support closed the original discussion thread, [Removed - Speculation/Rant].
==============================================================
FOR REFERENCE, I'VE PASTED BELOW MY LAST COMMENT FROM THE ORIGINAL FULL POST.
==============================================================
"After further research, I wanted to share a second issue I’ve observed with Quicken’s data feed regarding BYD Company Limited (BYD) and its two U.S.-traded share classes. These share classes represent the same company, but trade separately and should be treated as distinct securities:
- BYDDF – Class H shares (OTC) (CUSIP: Y1023R104)
- BYDDY – ADR shares (CUSIP: 05606L100)
What Happened – Two Stock Dividends
- BYDDF (Class H) declared a 3-for-1 stock dividend, with a record date of June 11, 2025, and a payable date of July 29, 2025. Shareholders will receive 2 additional shares for each 1 held, for a total of 3. (Source: Attached BNY Investor Disclosure)
- BYDDY (ADR) declared a similar corporate action — but because the ADR ratio is changing from 1 ADR = 2 shares to 1 ADR = 1 share, holders will effectively receive a 6-for-1 distribution (5 additional ADRs for each 1 held). (Source: Attached BNY Investor Disclosure)
Quicken's Data Feed Error(s)
Here’s where the problem starts:
- On June 10, Quicken downloaded a 1-for-0.6 split into my BYDDF (Class H) holding. This suggests a reverse split, which never occurred.
- On June 11, Quicken also downloaded a 3-for-1 stock split into the same BYDDF (Class H) security. While the direction is correct, the timing is wrong — the shares shouldn’t post until the payable date, July 29.
- To make matters worse, Quicken appears to be confusing BYDDY and BYDDF. The 6-for-1 ADR distribution for BYDDY, also payable on July 29, is being incorrectly applied to BYDDF (Class H), even though they’re different securities with different CUSIPs and market behavior.
Bottom Line
It looks like Quicken’s data feed is:
- Mistaking stock dividends for stock splits
- Applying the wrong effective dates
- Possibly mixing up ADR and OTC share classes, as if they’re the same security
What I’m Doing
- I’ve tested this in a copy of my Quicken file and confirmed the downloaded transactions are incorrect.
- I’ve avoided manually entering any stock split or dividend until after the July 29 payable date.
- I’ve discussed this issue with Quicken Support and was told that elevated support would investigate and try to resolve these errors. I’m hoping Quicken Support and the data provider can fix this before the July 29, 2025 payable date.
This is a known issue to Quicken. Has anyone else seen similar behavior with BYDDF or BYDDY? I’d like to compare notes or hear how you’ve handled this."
Quicken Elevated Support needs to resolve this error and, at minimum, have the courtesy to respond to this valid error.

Have you contacted Support about this issue?
This is primarily a user to user forum. Forum Moderators (users whose names begin with "Quicken") sometimes review issues discussed here and refer them to Development, but if you want Quicken to work on a problem, you should contact Support via phone. Be sure the support agent understands the problem and gives you a ticket number for future reference. Please post the ticket number here. Development only works on problems that have been referred by a Moderator or confirmed by a Support contact.
You should also use the Help > Report a Problem menu in Quicken to submit the issue online. In your submission, be as clear and thorough as possible. Reference the ticket number and provide a link to this discussion. Provide step by step instructions to reproduce the problem and note any error messages you receive. They will not pay much attention to a problem unless they can replicate it in house or see it in a support session.
You will not get a response to an electronic submission, but apparently they review and prioritize the submissions and use the data to help resolve problems they decide to work on. The more reports they receive the better.

TICKET NUMBER 11825658. On June 28, 2025, I spoke with Quicken Support about this matter. The Quicken support representative consulted with Elevated Support numerous times during the call, but Elevated Support was unable to resolve the data feed error at that time. I was told by the Quicken support representative that this error would be placed in Elevated Support's queue for resolution. I never received any reply, and Quicken simply closed the post instead of correcting this data feed error.

QUICKEN TICKET 11825658.
Quicken continues to incorrectly download the share dividend for BYD Company Ltd.’s ADR share class (Ticker: BYDDY) into the wrong security. See the attached “Stock Splits May Be Missing” screenshot.
This clearly shows that Quicken’s data feed is still confusing BYDDY (ADR) and BYDDF (Class H)—as if they are the same security. They are not.
To be clear:
- BYDDF (Class H) and BYDDY (ADR) are two different share classes of the same company.
- They trade under different tickers, have different CUSIPs, different prices, and in this case, are undergoing different corporate actions.
The screenshot below shows Quicken’s repeated attempt to apply BYDDY’s 6-for-1 ADR distribution, which is payable on August 13, 2025.
This corporate action has nothing to do with BYDDF, which already underwent its 3-for-1 stock dividend paid yesterday, on July 29, 2025.
Until Quicken corrects its data feed, the “Stock Splits May Be Missing” alert will continue to reappear incorrectly—causing confusion for users tracking these separate holdings.
Quicken's Data Feed is:
- Mistaking stock dividends for stock splits
- Applying the wrong effective dates, and
- Mixing up ADR and OTC share classes, as if they’re the same security.

1:0.6 isn't a reverse split, it's just another way of saying a 1.6666:1 split. Still doesn't make it correct just saying.
I have just spent over 2 hours on the phone with Quicken Support relating to this issue, and have escalated as far as it seems I can… gave them the ticket number above as well, wondering why the issue hasn't been fixed in the last 9 days.
They seem to have recognized the issue and appear to be working on it… but we'll see. They are supposed to call me back next week with an update; I'll post again if that happens.

They did call back today - surprise! - and offered to arrange a further escalation in which they would be able to address the issue, though it would an hour or so of my time online with them. I said no, as it seemed like a lot of time to address such a simple issue (I'll just keep clicking cancel every time I update!)
They did say that a fix will be included in a future update, no idea on timing however.
My ticket number was 11895379, in case that helps anyone with the same problem.

Thanks for posting this and for calling Quicken Support. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one dealing with this issue. At least now we know it’s a known Quicken bug and not something corrupted in our data files. Including a fix in a future update with an unknown date is a bit disappointing, but hopefully I won’t have to clear the “Stock Splits Maybe Missing” box for the rest of my life!
