Golden 1 Credit Union - Connection Error (FDP-105)

MrSacras
MrSacras Member

The connection to Golden 1 has been broken for 17 days (since Golden 1 updated its website and app). A moderator has reported/announced it's a known issue; however, there are no updates or a projected time to resolve it.

My specific error is Care code: FDP-105.

    @MrSacras, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

    The FDP-105 error with The Golden 1 Credit Union is a known issue. While the issue is being worked on, you can follow our Alert for updates:

    We currently don't have an ETA for when the issue will be fixed, but any news will be posted to that Alert when available. However, it does appear the issue is caused by maintenance on the bank's end, so we recommend trying at a later time as well.

    In the meantime, you can track the account manually by adding manual transactions, which will keep your records up-to-date. Here are the steps to do so: https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/3348103-managing-transactions-in-quicken-simplifi#h_85ca9fed99

    Thank you for your patience as we work to resolve the known issue!

    Echoing MdE … the error and Quicken's response that it is "aware" of the problem does not help users to set their budgets, review transactions, or get ready to file their taxes. So disappointing and frustrating!

  • Is there any news on this? We haven't heard anything since March 9th. However, Golden1 did tell me that it was going to be the end of April, but I sure hope that is a under promise and over deliver situation. Any news is helpful. Thanks.

    I, too, contacted Golden 1, and their timeline has shifted:

    Do we have any updates on when this will be fixed? Are you still thinking May?

    Is this really still broken? I find it hard to believe something I am paying for has stayed broken for 3 months. Come on guys! Give us an update or give us our money back.

    At work people were asking for budget software to recommend. I can't recommend Simplifi because of the constant outages and lack of follow through.

    My link was removed for being "disruptive"

    It was a link to [removed competitor mention], a competitor product. I would recommend it over Simplifi.

    Intuit — give us our money back!

    I haven’t called or messaged Golden 1 again so I can’t say whether the mid-May is still their forecasted date to fix the connection but I can tell you of a workaround I’m using in the meantime.

    The workaround suggested by Google AI is to download and then upload all transactions since the connection was disrupted. For me, that meant downloading all transactions between February 19 and the present. I downloaded and uploaded the data via a CSV spreadsheet (just be sure to rename/insert the necessary columns). See suggestion: https://share.google/aimode/vT2GzIim1KewtEpNi

    Super frustrating! For folks in the Sacramento area, a workable credit union alternative is Safe Credit Union. I'm moving our accounts over there next month.

    This issue has been around for 3 months now. I am not going to download and all that stuff. Where is this and when is it going to be fixed? I too was looking into moving to SAFE Credit Union, but I really don't want to do it. If it is an issue with Golden1, it can happen to any of the alternatives. This just needs to be fixed. This is the primary reason I have Quicken at all, to keep track of my incoming and outgoing transactions. Frustrating beyond compare.

    End of May and no fix yet, 95 days without a connection, sounds like the bank update broke this and Quicken cannot fix it until the bank does but its really killing my ability to manage finances

    This error presists. It is not scheduled maintanence Is there any progress in this , it worked for a very long time before. I suspect they updated thier website and simplify has not made changes to compensate, that is just simple logic and I really don't know.

    Thank you!

    Regular updates with any estimates would be a nice and appreciated start! Reading the tidbits in comments, I read we have no idea when it will be fixed, and fingers are pointed at the vendor. I am not saying this is true, just what I am reading. +100 Days is a long time!

    I see one person talking about downloading and uploading transactions, but what happens when it is fixed?

    Thank you!

    Thank you for the follow-up,

    The last update we received was that the issue is due to maintenance being done on Golden 1's end.

    I see one person talking about downloading and uploading transactions, but what happens when it is fixed?

    To clarify, are you concerned about downloading duplicate transactions once it's fixed? If Quicken Simplifi does not recognize that the transaction is already in your register, you can delete the duplicate entries or merge them manually. For information on merging duplicate transactions, please see this article: https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/4901071-how-to-resolve-duplicate-transactions#h_4f0ea3259a

    I hope this helps!

    Understood on the upload and download.

    On the issue , Is this blocked by Golden 1 third-party aggregation access, an MFA/OAuth issue, or a Quicken scripting issue?

    interesting slightly different message and indicates somebody’s interpreting the message because they just got it wrong, unless they’re trying to tell me, I’m kicked out for a year! Fingers crossed

    I cancelled via the AI bot and it was very easy.

    They will delete this too.
