    On my Discover bank account, it recently (Nov 30th) showed up my current balance as an "Interest Transaction" so it basically now looks like I doubled my money which is wrong. Works just fine on Mint, Monarch, and basically every other trial account that I have.

    @Matt Anfang, thanks for reaching out!

    To clarify, are you stating that the balance of your Discover Bank account is incorrect in Quicken Simplifi? If so, please take a look at the info outlined here to troubleshoot balance discrepancies: https://help.simplifimoney.com/en/articles/4202003-how-to-resolve-balance-discrepancies

    Let us know how it goes!

    @Coach Natalie No the current balance was correct. Simplifi generated a new transaction labeled "Interest Earned" and the amount was the current balance at the time when monthly interest was added. It is almost as if when the balance increased it took that new higher balance and also called it another "Interest Earned" transaction if that makes sense.
