Ally Bank - Web Connect vs Web Express

Mar 25, 2010 0 Replies

I have 3 accounts at Ally Bank - 2 CD's and a MMA - Using Quicken 2009 and lots of over accounts work just fine.



It appears that there is something different with Ally depending upon how the Quicken account is created.



Scenario #1 - Using the normal Add Account - Quicken goes thru the normal steps and creates the account, enables Web Express, BUT there are blanances downloaded



Scenario #2 - Using the Ally Bank download screen - and letting Quicken then setup the account during the download yields a slightly different setup using Web Connect. BUT the balances are downloaded and correct.



SO - With the Add Account - you get the Web Express, but no balances.



With the manual Download - you get the Web Connect, with balances. If you then try to enable One Step for this account, you get back to scenario #1.



I did just compare the accounts - since we have 3 of each now - The ones with Web EXpress and no balances have a different set of account number/routing info ie - Web Express account has - account number = xxxxx1234 and "blank" routing no balances



Web Connect account has - account number = 89891234 and real routing number = balances
