That was actually a huge selling point for me since I do not want any third party to have my bank logon credentials.”

I really, really tried to use Mint for a couple months because it’s free (I like free). In the end not being able to easily use custom categories and the non-stop ads put me over the edge. Maybe I’m too lazy but I felt like I was spending a lot of extra time on that stuff. I don’t even recommend Mint anymore when people ask me.
