Hi all,

Has anyone seen a resolution to the Discover card Direct Connect
failures? I entered myself in the Intuit Support Alert list for this
issue days ago and have yet to hear anything back.

One thing I have noticed is two separate entries for Discover Card
in the recently downloaded Financial Institution list; one indicating
Web Connect as the available protocol and the other indicating Direct
Connect; rather than a single entry indicating both.

The reason for the 2 are or could be if you want to use Direct connect
you will have to pay a fee for this option.
The free option is using Web connect.
This is also true for FI's like Chase. That is if you meet the minimum
requirements for the fee to be waived. That is if they allow it.

As for a fix.
The fix will not happen overnight.
They may announce a fix but it might not be available until the next
patch.

jslcr1,

I hadn't thought of that. Although I've received no notice, it
might be in the offing, though I hope not. I remember the Chase
conversion from WAMU, when free banking Direct Connect went away while
my old Chase Credit Cards still worked fine. If that's their plan, then
I would expect to see no fix or patch.

Thanks for the reply.

Regards,

I'm using Direct Connect. I don't pay any fee. It is working just fine.
