@Necoras: You have to private message an administrator to get an answer to anything at mint. And the answer is something like "we've recieved your complaint and are working on it" --- no timeline, no estimate, NO FOLLOWUP...they have some HUGE communication problems
I like Mint, but the balance information never matches what my bank tells me on its own web site.
My issue with Mint is that many items are coded incorrectly--like a credit card payment listed as utility. Then I get an unusual spending text from Mint and have to go to the website and figure out what's happened.
But I have dropped my credit card debt by $4k in the 90 days I've been using Mint, so I'm sticking with it.
@JudeTheObscure: I was about to comment the same thing. They're about a week late.
However the current balance email saved me from a credit card scam that was going on with a card I hadn't used in over 6 months (and thus hadn't checked the balance for in ages). Who knows how long it could've gone on without that update telling me my ghosted card suddenly had a 3k balance.
i like mint.com and their service,
but i'm at the point where i don't want to be reminded of my balance...

I like mint, but they don't support my bank, and they seem really bad about responding in the forums. Looks kinda like they're out of resources.
