I have 4 bank savings accounts and one checking account. One of my savings accounts is now linked to my checking account. The bank balance shown on my checking account is actually my savings account balance. Both accounts won't update. I tried to edit account login info to the savings account. It says it doesn't know which account to connect to and gives me the option to connect to my checking account. No other accounts are listed. I changed nothing before this happened. Should I disconnect my checking account, then reconnect?

Let's get this working, jeaneous.

 

Have you tried reaching out to your financial institution? If not, I recommend you do so. They can check if thee are ongoing system maintenance causing issues with updating your banks.

 

Also, disconnecting and reconnecting an account may download duplicate transactions. Instead I recommend fixing online banking issues.
