I wish they'd add support for not double-counting my credit card purchases instead.

I wish they'd add support for not double-counting my credit card purchases instead.
- damon_c 13y agoHa, yes... and support for not counting money transferred from savings to checking as income would be nice too.
- usaphp 13y agoAnd the money withdrawn from PayPal account to bank account.
- ilyanep 13y agoAnd realizing that my credit card bill that's due Feb 2nd was paid a month ago.
- WesleyJohnson 13y agoThis is my biggest issue with them: bill payments. They don't match up bill reminders with transactions. So, as you said, something you've paid still shows up as due and once the due date goes by, if you haven't paid it, it just disappears off your list even though it's still outstanding. They really need to fix this.
- jacalata 13y agoIs your savings account tracked by mint? Because I do this all the time and I don't see it listed as income, it's a transfer.
- damon_c 13y agoMaybe it depends on specifics. Mint must have some heuristics that attempt to discern whether or not a transaction is a symmetric internal transfer and they work for some and not for others. It's not an easy problem, given the zillion variables and different banks etc. but after all these years and witnessing the choices they've made on where to allocate resources it's hard to give them the benefit of the doubt.
- pdubs 13y agoIf you keep categorizing transaction from, say, checking to credit card or savings to checking as transfers it'll pick up on it after a bit and automatically categorize them.
- astrange 13y agoAll JPY transactions in my paypal are reported 100x too large in USD ($525 per month recurring bills instead of $5.25). I did report it once and got back a message saying "sorry, we can't fix your existing records", but they clearly made no attempt to fix it for new ones either.
- rogerbinns 13y agoFor me they seem very duplicate happy. I have to mark about 5 items per month (out of 20) as dupes.
- ry0ohki 13y agoQuick plug, but https://www.BudgetSimple.com https://www.BudgetSimple.com handles this correctly.
- maguirre 13y agoAlong the same line of thought. How about a cash flow forecast?
