--- Comment #5 from Jack <[email protected]> --- [email protected]: when you reply to a bug by email, please delete everything except your response, as your entire email becomes the next comment, and the extra quoted material can make the flow of the messages harder to follow. (Please see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=514627#c4) As I understand it, the way Intuit does their updates starts when you give them permission to get your data from the bank. This is actually handled by third-party aggregators who gather all the data from the various banks and then feed it to Intuit. The banks consider this safer than individual logons by each user, as the single connection by the aggregator can be done using more robust certificates for security instead of individual name/passwords. When you tell Quicken to update all accounts, it just pulls all the collected data from Intuit. I don't know if Intuit pays the banks anything for this, but their size, and the fact that they charge you for the software does give them leverage that is not available to smaller commercial software or free software such as KMyMoney. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
