My bank merged with another and I mistakenly closed the old bank account instead of merging it with the new bank. Is there a way to reopen the old account so that I can merge them?
Hello @ChristineT57,
Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, in Quicken Simplifi, marking an account as closed is a permanent action and cannot be reversed. https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/5149428-marking-accounts-as-closed#h_800a3511f5
You would need to add the account as a new account in Quicken Simplifi using the following steps: https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/4295304-adding-accounts-in-quicken-simplifi#h_518c0a0896
You could then track it as normal going forward. Depending on your financial institution, you may only be able to download up to 90 days of transaction history. If you need to add older transactions to Quicken Simplifi, you can import them using a CSV file. https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/4413430-how-to-manually-import-transactions-in-quicken-simplifi#h_07ed774471
We also have an idea post you may be interested in voting for that requests the ability to reopen closed accounts here:
I hope this information helps!
