Amex connected account not refreshing transactions

I am finding i can connect for a maximum of five minutes and then the connection expires? Any known fix?

Same issue.

Just signed up for Monzo Extra hoping to use it with my Amex card and it connects successfully, starts syncing transactions, and about 5 minutes later loses connection again and asks for it to be renewed.

Yep - i cancelled in the end - no AMEX access means pointless.

I did contact monzo but they had no solutions.

Yeah, probably have to do the same too. Can’t seem to raise a support ticket that gets a useful response through the Monzo app.
Surprising given they’re pushing the new paid accounts hard at the moment and I was all up for the £3 fee to see my Amex transactions alongside my other accounts.

I’ve used other budgeting apps recently with my Amex account and the open banking connection and they work flawlessly.

I have an outstanding issue with a duplicate transaction showing on my connected Barclaycard and like you, the support response has been pretty poor… I’ve raised a formal complaint as I am paying for a service which is seemingly broken and the response I have received has been tardy to say the least…

:unamused:

Same - had no problem elsewhere so concluded it was a monzo issue.

FYI - just tried reconnecting my Amex account today and it’s stayed connected for several hours now…looks like it might have been fixed.

Great - will try again.

I see this quite regularly with John Lewis credit cards. have to reconnect every few days. And then the John Lewis app just has a huge list of all Monzo authorisations, all of which don’t expire until 9999!
