Fault in Quicken account setting
There might be an error in your account settings. This can be from your end and from another end also. Make sure the information you provided about your bank details is correct or not. For example the password you change in your bank account is not updated in the quicken account. Then it will show errors in various data-related services.
-
Offline bank server
In some cases, there is an error from the bank side. Because of slow server connectivity, the transactions can’t be downloaded easily. In this case, you have to wait for any update from the bank. Or you can reach out to your bank service support.
-
Transactions uncleared by the bank
There can be chances when some of your financial transactions remain uncleared. This resulted in an error in downloading the transaction from the quicken portal.
