I do not know if this behavior still persists. The bank that produced 
the problematic file has merged with another institution and the .OFX 
file I now receive is nearly useless. There is a small sample file 
attached to the bug report that demonstrates the issue.

(To be clear the following is not a KMyMoney issue but rather a bank 
issue that illustrates some of the gross inadequates of this bank's .OFX 
implementation.

Almost every transaction downloaded must be edited to make it useful. 
There is no Memo field only the Name field is given.

I have/had two vehicle and a personal load open and paid automatically. 
The name that appears for all three is "Member Transfers" and the only 
way to distinguish which is which is by the transaction amount.

All Debit card purchases include the text ATM/Debit Card Purchase as the 
first 24 characters of a 30 character field leaving six characters for a 
unique name.

All checks written show Share Draft as the payee and do not even include 
the check number.

Probably more information than you wanted, but thank you for allowing me 
to vent.
