Hi accounts210,

 

 

The 102 error usually means we are temporarily unable to connect to your bank, either due to technical difficulties or maintenance with the banks website,or a server issue with the data transfer between us and the banks. The error usually self-resolves within 24-48 hours, but it's worth trying the update again after a few hours in an incognito (private browsing) window.

 

Can I check what bank you are with?

 

 

Thanks

Im with HSBC, the error has occurred for the previous 48hrs as I know. Still waiting for it to work.

Hi accounts210,

 

Thanks for getting back to me. Please try clearing the cache on your browser following the steps here, then close and re-open the browser before attempting an update.

 

Are you able to sign into your banks website? If you are able to sign in successfully please confirm that you are able to view your account summary and transactions without any problems, and look for any message, notification or alert from the bank indicating something isn't working as it should be.

 

Thanks :)

Hi,

 

I can log into the bank and see my HSBC accounts no problem.

 

I've also tried what you suggested in an incognito window and the error still occurs.

We have had some reports of intermittent issues with HMRC over the course of today - Perhaps leave it overnight, and if still no luck:-
