I like the broker link thing!  Very nice.  Vanguard and Fidelity were done and working.  Merril Edge, however, had a problem.  I tried twice.  Yes, I entered the correct username and password.  I am using the latest version of Chrome on a Windows 10 with all recent updates. (1908)

Something went wrong 

There was a problem and we couldn't connect your account.  Try entering your username and password again.

I tried 3 times today.

I have the opposite issue. I linked Merrill EDGE successfully, but I still get a message that my credentials need to be updated every time I load the portfolio. As soon as I proceed with that, I get a message that my account is already successfully linked to this app

My problem is somewhat similar - I get message that credentials are correct bu seeking alpha (you) could not find available accounts?

I haven''t been able to connect merrill acct for two weeks from phone or desk top.  after password change, I removed accounts and went through setup on mobile. went through verification, select accounts, connecting your accounts and then message says, "Something went wrong You can try again later or find another bank to continue." 

This week I tried from browser on laptop with the same result. Obviously, there's a connection from seeking alpha to merrill if it's able to get account list and challenge questions. 

Can anyone help.

I get the same error message (Something went wrong, please log in to your financial istitution and fix it) with TD Ameritrade.   I have tried several different times and logged a separate message for my TD Ameritrade issue.  So it is definitely a connection issue that Seeking Alpha has to broker accounts.   Please fix.
