Gesa Credit union connecting but not updating transactions

Gesa CU apparently made a change to their system over the week-end. Since then, Simplifi does connect and gets the balance of accounts from the night before, but not downloading transactions and the balances are not real time. I called Gesa twice to no avail. They want to blame Quicken for their problem. Maybe coming from Quicken would wake them up.

    Hello @Bill G,

    Thanks for reaching out! To clarify your situation, you are successfully connected in Quicken Simplifi to Gesa Credit Union, but transactions aren't downloading, correct? I would suggest a fresh new connection to see if this resolves the issue here. You can make the accounts manual and then use the Add Account flow to get a completely fresh connection. If the connection is successful, you'll then want to link the accounts to your existing Quicken Simplifi accounts.

    Additionally, I noticed that there are two instances available in Quicken Simplifi for this financial institution. Have you tried them both?

    Thank you,

    Coach Jon

    Hello @Coach Jon,

    I'm having the same issue as @Bill G. I went through the process with the help center, ticket 11416600, to make my Gesa Credit Union accounts manual, and then add them back again as new accounts and link them to the manual ones. This process worked seamlessly and was easy to follow. I then waited 6 hours so that the transactions could be pulled automatically again during a login to Simplifi. The account balance shows the correct amount for each account, but Simplifi does not show any transactions since 11/18/2024. This is the last day I can see Gesa transactions in Simplifi before Gesa did a major update to their website over the following weekend. When I view the transactions on Gesa's website I can see that I have had at least 6 transactions during the week of 11/25/2024, including a recurring paycheck, but they are not showing up in Simplifi.

    I have a feeling that there is an issue with the way Simplifi is attempting to pull in the transaction data from Gesa since they did their website upgrade and it will need to be fixed by your technical support team.

    Thanks!

    Please provide the following data so we can review your case for escalation:

    2. The Date, Payee, and Amount of a few example transactions that are currently missing in Quicken Simplifi.
    3. A screenshot of the example transactions from the bank's website.
    4. A screenshot of the corresponding register in Quicken Simplifi showing that the transactions are missing.
    5. A screenshot of the Accounts Summary page from the bank's website that lists all accounts and balances (feel free to redact any personal info) and has a wide enough scope to show the page URL (this must be taken from a web browser and not a mobile browser).
