After re authorising my bank account as requested I log into my bank account, authorise qb and then get re directed back to qb but it just buffers and buffers and buffers so qb doesn't reconnect to the bank. How and why is this happening :rage:

There are times that cache or browser issues can cause errors and delays in QuickBooks Online, bfgs2009. 

This can be the reason why you're unable to reconnect your bank account. Have you tried re-authorizing your bank account in an incognito/private browsing session or switch a different browser.

If not, follow these keyboard shortcuts to start an incognito session: 

• Ctrl + Shift + N  for Google Chrome
• Ctrl + Shift + P for Firefox
• Control + Option +P if you're using Safari
• Ctrl + Shift + P for Microsoft Edge

 
Then, log back in and reauthorize or reconnect your account to check if that would go through. If it's going through, delete your browsing history that might have caused the issue. This permanently deletes the stored cache that's causing the issue. 

Here's an article as a guide: Clear Cache And Cookies To Fix Issues When Using QuickBooks Online.
