Having spent hours and hours on the phone with both QB and HSBC each one blaming the other,

 

Has anyone else been unable to connect and does anyone have any solution?

 

Please dont tell me to clear the cache or something like that!

Hello julian19, thanks for joining the Community

 

We'd be happy to help get your bank connection up and running in QuickBooks.

 

Are you connecting to HSBC Business or Personal, and is the account type a standard current account or other type?

 

Do you receive any specific error code or message during the connection process?

Hi Julian,

 

I understand the challenges you're experiencing with connecting to HSBC and the difficulties you've encountered while trying to resolve error QB-TEC-2238 on your HSBC app. While I don't have specific information about others experiencing the same problem, I can offer suggestions that might help.

 

Generally, if you're not experiencing any problems within QuickBooks, it indicates your connection to your HSBC account is functioning properly.

 

  • You can try signing in to your bank account using a browser to determine if the issue is specific to the app or your account. If it's the same thing, temporarily disable any pop-up blockers on your web browser and attempt to reconnect. Refer to your browser's manual.
  • It may also be worth considering updating your bank's app to ensure you have the latest version, which could potentially resolve the issue.
  • If there are other error codes, please refer to this article: Fix bank errors in QuickBooks Online.

 

Please don't hesitate to reach back out if you have other questions about online banking, so I can continue to help. Take care, and have a good one.

Hello,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

The error I'm getting is "We're unable to complete the request. Please return to  Intuit Limited and try again later" (no error number or anything like that). I'm able to login and select the account I want to link, the message appears after confirmation.
