If your bank account number is formatted like this: 12-1234-123456-012

 

The first two groups is bank and branch number (don't enter dash or with dash ~ play around with that)

 

Account number will be the account number and suffix, the second two groups. Some banks give you 3 digit suffix but use only the last two digits.

 

Basically, if your account number is 12-1234-0123456-000, you'd enter as bank number or code: "12-1234" (with or without dash), then the account number: "0123456-00" (with dash).

 

Try this and see if it lets you link it and check for two small deposits into your bank account.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
