The Mint support team answers questions on their message board pretty quickly though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1205393 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 19:02:02 +0000 Pirouette 1205393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: oh good, glad that helped! I feel like it's a lot easier to navigate mint once you have about a month's worth of data.</p> <p>@raspberries: I wonder if you could use one of the budgeting tools to track that...and then set a rule so every check in that amount is categorized a specific way so it goes under that budget or goal or whatever...I haven't really explored that stuff so not sure if that would help. I think dh updated it manually, but fortunately the mortgage was transferred to citi almost immediately! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1205310 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 17:39:42 +0000 raspberries 1205310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's true - we have to pay our mortgage by check, and it shows up in Mint every month. I was thinking more along the lines of how to keep track of how much I've paid off, rather than showing that money went there... if that makes sense, haha!</p> <p>I really love Mint, but I wish there was a way to manually enter accounts like that - if there is only one transaction a month like a loan payoff, it wouldn't be too annoying to manually enter it and update the balance of the loan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1205029 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 15:01:02 +0000 MrsBrewer 1205029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pirouette: Yep you are totally right! Sorry I just signed up for it so I'm new to this whole thing! I'm still trying to figure out what effects what in everything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1205025 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 14:59:49 +0000 Pirouette 1205025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: that's what DH did. So doesn't the check show up if your checking account is linked to mint? and just rename it from "check #___" to "loan repayment" or whatever you want to call it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1205022 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 14:58:05 +0000 MrsBrewer 1205022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pirouette: By check! I have to send them a check in the mail every month! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1205015 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 14:56:33 +0000 Pirouette 1205015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>how do you pay the loans? DH had a mortgage that couldn't be added, so he manually added the loan amount it to our "debt" so our income/debt ratio was more accurate, but the monthly payments showed up because he paid them by check from our checking, so he just categorized the check payments each month as loan repayment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1204921 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 14:12:57 +0000 raspberries 1204921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it's possible... or if it IS possible, I haven't figured out a way to do it yet. Our mortgage is through a relatively small bank with crazy weird security settings, so I can't enter it into Mint either.</p> <p>My solution is basically just to keep a manual spreadsheet to track mortgage payments, but I'm not sure if it'd be worth it for smaller loans.</p> <p>More motivation to pay them off sooner? :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/a-question-for-mintcom-users#post-1204055 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:28:17 +0000 MrsBrewer 1204055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just signed up for Mint.com a couple of days ago, and I have 2 loans that are through really small credit unions who don't even have websites that I can log onto online. Is there still a way that I can manually enter in the loan amount and payments each month in my Mint.com account? That way it shows all of the current loans for me?</p> <p>I was trying to search around, but I couldn't find this option at all. </p>
