Yesterday PM, when attempting to download CSV data from Vanguard, I got a message apologizing for not being able to download data at that time.
This morning there was no apology message, but the downloaded data was old, from the day before yesterday.
Is anyone else having this experience?

What is the URL for "Download center"? It looks like there are two different pages that look similar.bertilak wrote: ↑Tue Mar 14, 2023 7:23 amThe data you get when you download from the "Download center."

Maybe one of those works better than the other?
Apparently other people on reddit saw the "sorry for the inconvenience" message a couple weeks ago -- https://www.reddit.com/r/Bogleheads/com ... er_broken/.
Anyway, maybe it's working better for you now?

The second one is the one I end up at after logging in and navigating to the download page. I suspect this is a newer page as it just looks more modern. The login page I start with is https://investor.vanguard.com/my-account/log-on.sycamore wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2023 10:46 am

Do you use a different starting page to get to the other download page?
In any case, it was only a temporary problem for me as it all works fine now, and has for a while.
