For those who use manilla, how do you like it?


I've been using it for some time now and I like it.  I linked ALL of my accounts seemlessly and I get notifications of upcoming due dates.  My due dates are all over the place so I like looking at the due dates in calendar form.  Plus Manilla is the only app that I found that is able to link all of the GE accounts.  I'm sure that there are others but this is the only one that I've come across.

 

Also the iPhone app (Android as well) is a nice feature.  You can see all of your accounts at once, if you want to look at your statements it is all located in the same spot.  Two-thumbs up for me!

 

Edit:  Plus it is pretty quick and not clunky slow like mint, nor are their adds all over the place.  No bill payment but I don't care about that anyway because I use my Chase account for that.

Thats why I picked it up as well for the GE access.

Strange, I have my BofA mortgage and banking accounts linked.  I do know a few times I had to supply the verification answers more than once but it has not happened in a few months now.

Its a shame that pageonce has GE issues, I really liked that program.

Ooooooooo, just looked at Check......not bad at all.  It might be a little bit more sophisticated than Manilla.

Re: How Do You Keep Up With Your Cards

I do mine a bit more "manually" instead of using a system that brings it all together...mainly because for some weird reason viewing each account separately makes them easier to remember to pay.

 

I put all my due dates in my calendar, with reminders 1 business day ahead of the due date. I usually pay it off before then and make sure it's registered as "completed", but just in case!

 

In addition, I use to keep a separate sticky with statement close dates for when I tried PIF and leaving a balance on one card...due to my increased spending during the summer (and luckily increased pay flow due to more hours at work), and no need to apply for anything for at the very least another year, i'm just letting my balances post. Only received a 3-4 point difference according to my EQ scores, so it's not a pressing matter.

 

Finally, I log into each and every account (banking and credit), just to check for fradulent purchases, CLI, etc. Smiley Happy

It's amazing how some people on here have the time and free will to update spreadsheets for their 10+ cards ...

Re: How Do You Keep Up With Your Cards

I have two credit cards. One is due on/about the 7th and the other the 16th of each month. My mortgage is due on the 15th. Easy enough!!!
