I do better with a mental budget TBH. I know exactly what bills are due when (I keep a planner), spend about the same weekly in groceries, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472581 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 14:32:17 +0000 birdofafeather 472581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i love it because i can't keep up with a manual list and we use our cards for everything. it's easier to enter cash payments and change things as we need. it's not perfect, but good for what we use it for. we have the apps on our phones and ipad as well, so DH and i can check in as needed. it did take a while to get everything set up though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472443 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:45:10 +0000 TheReelDeal 472443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought it was junk. I was better with a pencil, notepad and calculator. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472435 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:41:54 +0000 DigAPony 472435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so glad other people don't like it--I thought I was the only one! I was really excited after hearing how helpful it was, but I found it confusing and way more work than it was worth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472424 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:35:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 472424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just had some many people rave and rave about it (even other people on WB) but I just can't figure out how to set it up to meet our needs!</p> <p>I think we are going back to just doing the Dave Ramsey cash/envelope system. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472408 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:28:10 +0000 immabeetoo 472408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep tried it and hated it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472406 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:27:11 +0000 spaniellove 472406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@alie: I need to do that. Seriously, of course there's a low balance - the account doesn't exist anymore! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472383 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:19:52 +0000 fairefaire 472383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh I hate Mint. Like @spaniellove, I used to have it, removed an account, and then it kept emailing me FOREVER. I think I just eventually set-up the emails to automatically get deleted.</p> <p>I did just sign up for LearnVest, which is very similar, but I might like it better. I'm only one day into using it though, so I'll probably hate it by next week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472370 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:13:51 +0000 futuremama 472370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate that it won't update my Gap credit card. Other than that, it serves its purpose. I don't love it, but I haven't found (nor really looked for) anything with similar functionality that does it better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472340 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 13:02:31 +0000 Mrs. Pen 472340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like it at all... I stopped using it and now just do a paper budget. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472331 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 12:59:34 +0000 Weagle 472331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It can be pretty frustrating. Some accounts just don't work with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472267 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 12:41:09 +0000 spaniellove 472267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I removed an account over a year ago and it still sends me low balance emails! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472217 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 12:12:07 +0000 kml636 472217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have it. it works well for me now but the annoying thing is updating the password on accounts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-else-not-like-mintcom#post-472099 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 11:23:33 +0000 T.H.O.U. 472099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just tried for the second time to set up Mint.com and it is such a pain and I can't get it to function the way I want it to! </p>
