BofA does offer Web Connect as the default. But they offer
Direct downloads, it's just that you have to pay for them.

BofA does offer Web Connect as the default. But they offer
Direct downloads, it's just that you have to pay for them.
Either pay a monthly fee, open a certain account type which
requires minimum balances, or do direct deposit. I can't say
for certain that the BofA credit card is treated the same, but I
am guessing that it is possible to get direct downloads for
their credit card.
Also, once Intuit works out the bugs in its new feature, Express
Web Connect, users of Q2007 and later will be able to get
near-direct downloads from web connect accounts.
