Question

My business Discover Card no longer links to QBO. I get an error "no eligible accounts". But I can link my personal card. This stopped working in August. Any ideas?

I tried to call QB help desk and Discover Help desk so they can talk and look at the error. The help desk from QB (Raynald) actually hang up before I can connect to Discover, after I spent 30 minutes in the phone asking if he would wait while I connect to Discover so we all three can talk. The Discover help desk was nice, he said QB is doing some update a while ago and he heard some customer was able to have QB to do a back end reset. I guess I'll try to call again to see if this is possible. Otherwise, please add me to the list of people that the connection is also broken.

BTW: For additional info, for me the system failures to Discover began on 2023-10-02 so we have almost 2 months of no transactions. When they fix this will it reload all transactions that were missed. Also, if we manually load transactions from a csv, will they dedup against ones we already have or will we need to clear these up. Also, will a partial refund be issues on accounts due to lack of service?

December 14, 2023

I'm having the same issue. 

 

QB support should escalate this to the QB integration team. The correct team at QB should contact Discover and figure out what the interface/link is down. 

 

December 19, 2023

What alternative products have people found since QB/QB Self Employement/etc no longer work with Discover?

 

BTW: Weirdly it fails on the business accounts but not the personal accounts. The personal accounts however don't help but does indicate something that it specific.

I'm experiencing the same issue... Quickbooks was able to import transactions from Discover Business card successfully until August 2023, then it disconnected. And now when I enter the username & password for the Discover account to get Quickbooks to retrieve transactions, it says, "We're Sorry. You do not have any accounts that are eligible to link at this time."

Is the official conclusion that after July 2023 (6 months ago as of the date of this post), all Quickbooks users with Discover credit cards must enter every credit card transaction manually rather than importing data directly from Discover?

Having done so multiple times calling customer care to log it does not seem to help and takes about 30 minutes per session to get anywhere that they will log the issue, more often just closing it.

 

Import does not work on self employement unless you load into the cash account which will make it harder to resolve later or an unused/ never used credit card. There is currently no support to make a new account to load transactions into

I just tried again. Getting a different error this time but still failing

After months and months of no solution and no admission that they simply no longer support linking to Discover, I switched to Wave. Very pleased. Linked to my Discover no problem.
