MintReviews 67

I think Mint.com is one of the best sites on the internet. Mint.com is a powerful tool for individuals to take charge of and manage their personal finances. Mint.com takes the complex, sometimes daunting task of managing your money and makes it easy, streamlined, and even a little fun! Mint has helped me to set and achieve goals of paying off credit cards and creating an emergency savings fund. Mint.com takes all of your financial information from a variety of sources and organizes it in a way that makes the information useful so you know what is happening with your money. Mint also makes personalized recommendations of ways to save and earn more money. If you are ready to take charge of your financial future, Mint.com is a great place to start!

It was pretty cool for the first week I had it on my Android Tablet. However, I kept having to input my password and user name to keep it updated... but it didn't update. It has told me for the past 2 weeks that I haven't spent any money, when in the real world, I've spent like $1000. WTH? I was honestly kind of leary about using this site and giving them my bank login, but I haven't seen any odd transactions yet. I'm probably going to delete the app today.

I have been a user of Mint for at least couple of years now, pre-Quicken acquisition. It was a great product, but of late the functionality has regressed because of which I am no longer able to recommend it. Citibank credit card linking is broken for months, now since yesterday Amex linking is broken. I have not had a day lately where some account that used to work at the last login now breaks. Looksd like Quicken acquisition has really screwed things up at Mint. It was such a great product that has been derailed. What a shame!

I personally Love mint, just like everyone else states its pretty much a one stop shop. You don't need to go anywhere else to review all your finances and it will actually break everything down for you. So you can actually see where your money is going.
I only see one issue with this site is that you keep all your finances in one place you are completely rely on this site to protect all your personal information. I wish i knew what steps they take to actually protect it. Especially since lately even the government sites are being easily hacked into. You must wonder if someone wanted to steel all this data one day and you provided mint with all your account information and passwords what sort of damage can those hackers make.

Mint started off very good. It updated me when my accounts were low etc... then after I became good and comfortable with using Mint, my checking accounts were not updating properly on their site. Due to this inaccuracy I ended up overdrafting on one of my accounts thinking that I had funds available. Now I have to grapple with the bank to try to reverse the overdrat fees I have incurred. My fault for carelessly trusting Mint.Com and not checking the bank website as I should have! Now I am using google docs for budgeting :(. ...

Mint.com is the perfect example of a brilliant website that sold out to a giant corporation and turned to crap. This website has the ability to securely and automatically update all of your financial information (based on information you provide) and then gives a one stop snapshot of your finances, including all bank accounts, investments, loans etc. The problem is that since being bought out by Intuit/Quicken, the site is now full of glitches and their customer service/technical support is non-existent. It's like the worst Beta site ever, except there are no programmers standing by to sort out the glitches for the final release. It already is the final release. Don't waste your time with this one.

I use Mint.com for the simplest of reasons - to keep track of my accounts without needing to log into each one. I used Quicken years ago but was never diligent enough to keep up with my budget, etc. With the Mint app, I can more easily stay on track, I think / hope. Surely there are features that I'm missing out on right now, but I'm sure I'll find them with due time. For now, I appreciate how easy it is to use the tools offered on the site!

I will be the first to admit that I am not the best at saving money. I can barely balance my checkbook and as I am writing this I am scared to look at my online credit card statement as I have no idea what I am spending. I would never buy software like quicken as I would never use it. However, a friend told me about the free services of mint and I do not really understand much of it. What I do like about mint are the very useful blogs. I just read an amazing article on the actual cost of coffee and am realizing how much money I am giving to starbucks on a yearly basis. Here is a link to the blog. Take a peek at this site, you will not regret it.
