The 12-mo is unattainable. 😁 I've never gotten it and I have never failed to pay everything ever in the 4 years I've used the app.
I assume it has something to do with deleting some or changing some from one month to another, which happens sometimes because of postponements of work or my guess turned out to be wrong.

Hello All,
Thank you for sharing! I know it's not unattainable, because I managed to get it in Dec 2024.
The bills/subscriptions I track are mostly monthly, although there is one annual. Since the vast majority of my bills are autopay, the only real variation on the paid date that downloads into Quicken Simplifi is if the due date happened to fall on a weekend.
I don't think that deleting or editing reminders would cause it because I do plenty of that when trying to replicate issues people report.
You did mention work delays and incorrect guesses. Is it possible that it's seeing one-time reminders or reminders for things that come at irregular intervals as "missed" if the bill doesn't happen or happens at a different date than expected?
I look forward to your reply!

@Coach Kristina Thanks for the reply. It doesn't bother me, but I cannot tell you exactly why I've never gotten it. I am pretty Obsessive about these things, but I do know that I test things and I play around with it a lot, especially when I am trying to help a fellow user, and I cannot help wondering if some of that confuses Simplifi.
I have never failed to pay a bill that I owed in my entire life, and I pay them on time. I have been lucky to be able to do it and frugal enough to make sure I never bit off more than I could chew.
I do a lot of one-time bills and sometimes I expect things that don't come. For example, I am expecting this month a bill from my Plumber for some work last month and I have it entered with a guesstimate for the amount. But it might not come until September and it will probably be more than I guessed! They are notoriously expensive.

Thanks, I've been "troubleshooting" this issue mostly with @Coach Natalie since this achievement was first introduced. It's become a bit of a running "joke" and I'll post about from time to time. It appears my previous conversations have been archived or deleted. I know this "bug" has affected a few others and it's inconsistent. Don't spend any time on this - it's not at all important… but having the feature it should work for all users.
