It could indeed be an FTID problem: if a transaction in the OFX file has
an FTID (they are supposed to!) GC checks whether it has seen this
transaction before (by looking at all previous transactions in the
corresponding account). If it finds a transaction with the same FTID, it
assumes you're re-importing the same transaction and it's just ignoring it.
So the issue *could* be that the transactions that GC ignores have FTIDs
that already exist in the ledger transactions.
You could verify this hypothesis by opening the .gnucash file (go to the
options, select saving uncompressed, which then allows you to see the GC
file as plain text) and searching for the FTID of one of the
transactions that are not being imported. (or by exporting all
transactions to a csv file and checking there).
OR, you could hack the OFX file, change the FTID to a large string, and
trying re-importing it. If it works this time, you'll know what the
issue is.
Some banks have been known to re-use FTIDs which they're not supposed to
do. That causes a problem for GC.

Has anyone else come across a problem importing payment information fro OFX

in bringing my accounts up to date I have noticed the importer is not
recognising a transaction which occurs in the OFX file. The transactions
other than payments I have made into the acount seem to be imported normally
but the following and similar record are not appearing in the Import matcher
window. In my case these normally match to transfers from a bank account
into my credit card which already exist as I generally import the bank
account records first but they usually come up in the import matcher as a do
not import however now they do not appear at all in the import matcher
window.

Another similar payment record into the account on another date also failed
to be recorded and similarly in a previous import for the month before. Any
payment records do not appear to be recognized in the OFX file. The records
matching these payments into the account are not marked as cleared "c" when
the records are imported. It may have something to do with FITID recognition
as all the records which are not being imported have <FITID> values whereas
all the records fo my purchases have a blank <FITID>. Just want to check
that this is a general problem and not just my bank changing things before
reporting it as a bug.
