I just found out that my bank does not work with Quicken (Mobile Oil
Federal Credit Union) I filled out the request on the quicken web site
to have my bank added to the list of supported banks, my question is
what are the odds of my bank actually supporting quicken? I am
considering switching from Money because I am having some problems
downloading transacations but if quicken does not support my bank at
all I guess I am stuck with Money.

Thanks, Sam

What are the chances? Not very good. It's really up to the bank. Intuit is
always happy to have new banks on board because it enhances their revenue. So
they are not your problem.

Your best bet is to talk to the bank. The decision is in their hands.

I just checked with the bank and they are already considering
supporting quicken but the problem is that quicken wants the bank to
pay in order for the banks customers to be able to use quicken. Too bad
that quicken has taken that type of approach.

Thanks for your response Fred.

I don't think "Quicken has taken that approach." I think the banks have
had to pay for some time. From what I've seen here and my own experience
the banks don't want that expense. They now offer their own version of
bill pay on their own web site. It sucks!

Don't mean to be argumentative but ETrade bill pay is super.I also believe
they support Money & Quicken but I have Quicken and not really interested in
Q Bill Pay.
