Topic: Charles Schwab Bank, N.A.

This institition has a crazy login system for OFX...
Username is web login username
Password is web login password trimmed to 8 characters
BANKID is the routing number, 121202211
account number must be normalized, so if yours is 4400-12345678, it must be passed as 00000440012345678

In my experience, all requests with start dates before 90 days prior to the current day will fail silently.  It seems to be a timeout on the connection.  The OFX response will show success, but no transactions will be shown.

Re: Charles Schwab Bank, N.A.

setting up my checking account with PocketSense, I needed to use the following:

    SiteName   : Schwab Bank Checking (can be anything here)
    AcctType   : BASTMT
    fiorg      : ISC
    fid        : 101
    url        : https://ofx.schwab.com/bankcgi_dev/ofx_server
    bankid     : 121202211
    brokerid   : SCHWAB.COM
    appid      :
    appver     :
    mininterval:

account number: 000004400-12345678 (assuming my account number looked like 4400-12345678 as seen when logging into schwab.com website - add 5 leading zeroes)
my username and pwd were the same as when logging into the account website.
