[GNC] OFX Direct Connect from Bank of America

[Kalpesh Patel]

BofA indeed discontinued DirectConnect  support many moons ago. 

You still can, however, download 'Web Connect for Quicken 2018 and above' formatted file (aka QFX) which imports into GNC with very minimal effort which  I can confirm for Credit Card statements for sure.

I’m pretty sure BofA dropped DirectConnect a couple of years ago. That belief is supported by these two (admittedly not authoritative) websites:
