    Hello @Jrmclean,

    Thanks for posting!

    As mentioned here, we are already working to re-establish a connection with Best Egg, so a request for this financial institution is technically not needed. However, I have gone ahead and just marked this post as 'In Progress' so that anyone who's waiting on the connection can follow it for updates.

    If you're seeing a separate issue connecting to Best Egg as a Biller using Bill Connect, you'll want to go ahead and create a separate post outlining the specific issue that you're seeing there.

    Much appreciated! :smile:

    Understood, but the Best Egg is not even an option under add accounts anymore and it use to be.  I get the same error trying to add as a connected biller probably due to the same account issue, so I was holding to report an issue with connected biller after the account access was resolved.

    Hello @Jrmclean,

    That's correct -- the option to connect to Best Egg in Simplifi has been removed until the scripting/connection can be reestablished.

    For the issue with connecting to Best Egg as a Biller, you can wait to create a separate post if you'd like, however, this would be completely separate from connecting the account to the bank for transaction download (we use a different Service Provider for Bill Connect) and the issues would not be related in any way. 

    I am also seeing some options listed for Best Egg in Simplifi when attempting to connect to it using Bill Connect, and I was able to confirm that these options are also presented as available by our Biller Service Provider, so as far as I can tell, you should be able to connect to Best Egg as a Biller in Simplifi.


    With that being said, I would encourage you to go ahead and create that separate post outlining the specific issue that you're seeing with Best Egg and Bill Connect, however, it's entirely up to you. :smile:

    Just got a new BestEgg credit card as it was 0% interest for a period, it's also my 2nd lowest 'regular' apr right now (noting that in 2018 i had a bankruptcy, so apr's have been high recently).   I noticed that Chase seems to support connecting to BestEgg, but SImplfi does not.  That implies there -is- a way to connect, it's just not being used.

    I'll also add myself as a Best Egg Credit Card customer. I also found my card is backed by "First Bank & Trust, Member FDIC, Brookings". I did find "First Bank & Trust Brookings" listed but I wasn't able to use my Best Egg credentials to connect my account.

    I closed my bestegg account because they did not support QS.
