I can't connect my Barclays bank to my account. Is this a long standing issue or just a blip?

Hi Jtizzkitchens. No, this isn't a long-standing issue or a permanent bug. It’s likely a temporary communication 'blip' between the bank's servers and ours.

Because Barclays uses Open Banking, they have strict security layers that can occasionally time out during the initial setup. To resolve this, please try refreshing your page and attempting the link again. Keep in mind that Barclays will require a few additional authentication steps on their end (usually via your banking app) to authorize the connection.

I've included a helpful article here that walks you through the process of connecting your bank and credit card accounts: Connect your bank or credit card to QuickBooks.

If you’re still seeing that 'unavailable' message after refreshing, please reach out to us again. We're always here to help.
