  • I'm on Windows 11 and Quicken release R64.29.
  • Issue started Saturday 2/21.
  • Name of the bank is The Golden 1 Credit Union Error message CC-505.

The error occurred after a digital banking upgrade. When I reached out via email I got this response:

Golden 1 Response:
Thank you for reaching out to us.
We understand how important it is to have seamless access to your data. At this time, Quicken is still under development to support options beyond manual data export. Unfortunately, we do not have an estimated timeframe to share, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
We appreciate your patience and thank you for your continued membership.
Sincerely,
Member Advocate Team
Golden 1 Credit Union

Golden 1 call center wait times are 30-40 minutes to discuss this issue with no call back option.

I have a few questions: 1) Is Golden 1 working with Quicken to restore web connect connections 2) Can Quicken initiate this fix with Golden 1 IT staff 3) How long would it take to restore this service 4) What is the value of Quicken without web connect transaction downloads?

Thank you for your reply!

    Hello @rlandon,

    Thank you for reporting the issues you are seeing with Golden 1 Credit Union.

    Currently, we do have a Known Issue with Golden 1. It is a different error, but this is most likely related.

    After reviewing your connections internally, I can confirm you are getting a CC-505 error. You may be able to log into the bank's website successfully and still receive this error in Quicken. This is because the error is caused by an issue on the bank's servers (typically a block placed by the bank) that Quicken uses to download transactions.

    First, wait one business day

    This error message is typically caused by a temporary issue on your bank's servers. You can try updating again in a few hours or the next business day.

    Second, if waiting one day does not resolve the issue

    Try refreshing your online account information:

    1. From your account register, select the Actions gear icon at the very top right of your register (Ctrl + Shift + N).

    2. Select Update Now.

    Actions Gear 0

    3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update.

    4. Repeat these steps for each financial institution experiencing this error.​

    If the issue persists

    Try the steps above again the next business day. If the problem continues for over 48 hours, contact Quicken Support for assistance.

    To answer your questions at the bottom of your post:

    • Quicken is aware of this issue and has escalated it.
    • When this happens, we do work with the financial institution toward a resolution.
    • I do not have any information on what Golden 1 plans to do, and therefore cannot speak to that.
    • We do not provide ETAs as to when issues will be resolved.
    • Quicken has a plethora of other features and benefits that make it valuable. Measuring its value would depend on what exactly you use Quicken for. However, that does not discount the value of this bank connection you depend on. I hope this can be resolved soon!

    Hope this helps!

    This is undoubtedly due to Golden 1's recently digital platform upgrade they launched in the last week or two. I thought my Quicken Classic install was still working, but it was just allowing the old credentials to authenticate and then not actually doing anything. I've since tried to update my login info (they've forced the selection of username instead of the old account ID login we'd used for years) and I'm unable to ever connect. They do also have a 2 factor login enabled and required by default, so I would not be surprised if that's blocking the authentication.

    I'm dead in the water here and Quicken is basically useless for me for my multiple Golden 1 accounts, so please escalate this Quicken Support if at all possible. Here's the message I get when trying to re-add logins for existing accounts…

    "Looking for your accounts…"
    and then 10-15 seconds later…

    Stuck in a loop there.

    I'm having the exact same issue. I get an error message even after deactivating and re-entering my new login ID and password. I can get into my accounts on the Golden 1 by logging into my Golden 1 account on my laptop browser and on my Golden 1 app, but I cannot get into them using Quicken. I also have a number of accounts with the Golden 1, so this is very inconvenient. I was able to download my account transaction data from the Golden 1 site and then upload that file into Quicken, but that's not very convenient either given the number of accounts I have. I hope that Quicken and the Golden 1 can get this resolved quickly.

    PS: Also, I'm hesitant to keep trying to get in, since in the past if I've not been successful after three tries, Golden 1 locks me out, and I have to call their customer service folks to get IT to unlock my account.

    For what it's worth, I spent an hour or two this weekend updating my Golden 1 transaction info with the categorization info I've used in Quicken for years, and while there's a lot of missing functionality compared to Quicken, we Golden 1 customers may just be better off making use of their web tools exclusively from now on. I was able to add a credit card from another company and categorize that info as well, and it's mostly good enough that I can see what's going on until this issue is fixed.

    I believe I'm paid up already for the year for Quicken so I'd like to see this resolved for my subscription but the longer this takes the more likely I am to just abandon using Quicken entirely. I'm sure I'm not the only one, so I hope there's some sense of urgency on this. Thanks..and again, I think most of us understand this isn't necessarily Quicken's fault.
