Quicken's method of providing user support is awful
Simplifi's current model of providing support via Discussion Forum only is awful at best and a security risk at worst. I have worked with hundreds of SaaS applications over the last 20 years and NOT ONE utilizes a public forum as it's only method of providing technical support. For a company the size of Quicken to refuse to use an actual ticketing system available to the end-users is ludicrous, especially for an app that is used to manage financial information. I shudder to think of the amount of sensitive data a determined malicious actor could scrape from these threads. I think when my subscription is up I will migrate to a system that takes its users' privacy more seriously.

It is NOT discussion forum only, both the web and app have chat support, and there is phone support too. It's all personal preference.
I don't work for anyone, including Quicken.

I attempted to use chat to report an issue and was directed to the forum. Explain to me how I can submit the necessary data for bug reporting over the phone?

Any data you want to be kept private can be sent via private message to one of the coaches here. I have found them to be very helpful when I need guidance.

On web app - click "Help Center" on bottom left, then "How to contact support" - just notice chat and phone support are NOT 24/7, where the community is 24/7.
