Quicken Citibank direct connect - data is several days behind

Is it a pending transaction or has it actually cleared? Pending transactions won't download and I have seen ours take up to 4 days to clear.

I have reported this before (NY/NJ area). I still use DC to download transactions, rather than WC (in Europe WC stands for toilet .) Right now I am waiting for my car loan pay-off to get recorded in my citibank account. Yesterday early morning I did a telephone payment (phone to a real human at Sovereign bank), but so far it hasn't registered at Citibank. OK, I'll take the float on that amount .

I thought it stands for "water closet" ... which means the toilet. Hehehh, couldn't resist. I lived in England from 1972-77, and I do miss it! :-)

You miss it? Sounds messy!

Sorry- couldn't resist...

It has cleared. Citibank marks current day transactions with an asterisk, and does not show a balance online after such transactions. Even WC doesn't download such transactions, which is not surprising. However, DC seems to lag behind WC in terms of cleared transactions.

DC is a lot more convenient, so I intend to use it. I suppose I'll just have to get used to a lag between the time transactions clear, and when they are available for download via webconnect. I was just surprised that webconnect and direct connect don't retrieve the exact same transactions.

In "loo" of a better thought? (Sorry, couldn't resist....)
