In personal finance I cannot update portfolios. the edits never appear but are there in the background?

Question

I have 8 portfolios and I have made changes to them for years. I added a stock to one of my portfolios, entered more information and "Finished". Nothing I do allows me to see the new stock in that portfolio. I tried removing 2 of the portfolios I have but they will not delete. I can still edit them, but when I do, there is nothing there. The edit screen complains that the portfolio key was not found. This problem exists on multiple PCs (home and work).

Answer 1

I've been having some similar issues too.

They've been having several issues lately syncing up data.  Just keep trying and it should eventually work.

If the problem persists, you may need to report it to customer care.  To get there, start with the help link at the top (right) of the page (in Yahoo! Finance).

From there, choose a category on the left to get things going.

On that page, select one of the options and scroll down to the bottom of the page where there should be a button to contact customer care.

It may take a few exchanges with them to finally get to the core, but don't fret, just keep with it.

Good luck!

Answer 2

I have the exact same problem and have contacted Yahoo.  You can add/edit a portfolio but the changes don't stick.  Their databases are out of sync, not refreshing or something.  Very annoying especially when paying for RTQ's.
