    @the_scottster, thank you for reaching out to the Community with this issue!

    When checking your connection attempts from our end, I was able to confirm the FDP-155 error with 'Raymond James invest - CA'. This error typically means that the bank is indefinitely or permanently blocking connection traffic. I was able to reproduce the error in my own Quicken Simplifi using dummy credentials as well, which confirms the block.

    However, since you had the account connected prior, I think we can definitely do some troubleshooting and review the case for escalation to our service provider, who may have more insight into the block. First, let's have you establish a completely fresh connection with the bank so we can show that the error is occurring with a new connection:

    1. Make all of the accounts with this bank manual by following the steps here.
    2. Once you see the account(s) listed in the Manual Accounts section under Settings > Accounts, go back through the Add Account flow to reconnect to the bank.
    3. If the connection is successful, carefully link the account(s) found to your existing Quicken Simplifi account(s) by following the steps here

    Let us know how things go!

  • Having the same issue, started about two weeks ago. Tried creating new account and still won’t connect. Never had issues with RJ previously.

    Hello @Paradon,

    Thank you for letting us know you're encountering this issue. To clarify, were you previously successfully connected to Raymond James invest - CA?

    I look forward to your response!

  • Correct. No prior issues and I hadn’t changed anything on my RJ account or Simplifi config recently.

    @Paradon, thank you for your patience as this issue was being researched!

    We heard back from our service provider, and they confirmed that Raymond James CA is blocking connectivity. They stated that they have reached out to the financial institution and heard back that they will not be supporting a connection. Our service provider recommends that users contact the financial institution directly to help make them aware of the user impact.

    As for tracking the account in Quicken Simplifi, you can do so manually. Since it sounds like the account is an investment account, it would first need to be disconnected from the bank so holdings can be added and edited. Here are the steps to do so: https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/5321064-switch-a-connected-account-to-manual-mode#h_d9c41566d8

    And here is our article that goes over adding and editing holdings in manual investment accounts: https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/4474538-tracking-investments-in-quicken-simplifi#h_f8a7bc2e30

    I would also recommend continuing to try connecting the account every so often in Quicken Simplifi, just in case connectivity is supported again in the future. If you receive the FDP-155 error, that means the block is still in place. But if you are ever able to reconnect, you will be able to link the account back up! https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/4959544-how-to-link-accounts#h_b7ba4cd1e2

    I apologize for not having better news, but I hope this helps!

  • Thanks for the follow up. The Raymond James platform is already one of the most useless available. You can view accounts and download documents. No way to actually transact anything so security risks are minimal.
