Egg Money Manager

Has anybody signed up to use the egg money manager as there is a free £15? I am thinking about signing up and would like to know how long it took for the £15 to arrive and whether it was simply added straight to your account.

Many thanks

I too notice this when I signed into Egg this morning. I think Martin has already done an article relating to this.

It was a tenner when i registered,it took 3 months for them to pay up,you can change your password logins etc once you have done this(i personally dont want egg to know the state of my accounts) and they still pay.
its straight forward enough.

I know some people are concerned about EGG having details of your other accounts,but personally,i think Money Manager is great!

I can see all my accounts online at the same time,and it helps me keep track of our finances.I have current accounts/savings accounts/ISA's/credit cards etc all on one page.

It is good for my wife,who has no real interest in this type of thing,but i have shown her how to access everything incase something should happen to me !!

Do you need to have online banking set up with your other banks to add accounts to EMM?

Bargain_Rzl · 13 July 2005 at 2:21PM

Yes, you do. Basically it works by giving Egg your internet banking logons and security details (though nobody at Egg can actually see them - they operate within a secure "password safe" which you download to your PC) so that once you're logged on to Egg, you can then access your other accounts at the touch of a button.

They've emailed me to tell me about this offer. I've done it before and received £10. However... when I went in the read the small print it doesn't say anything about 'you can only do this if you've not participated in this offer before'. Morally I really think I shouldn't do this, but just out of curiosity, do you think they really would credit me with another £15?

I have used EMM for a while and it is very useful for viewing (most) of my egg and non-egg accounts in one place. I didn't ever get any reward for doing so though, and note that the terms state I can't get it now either

I have never had a problem with the security side of it - possibly too trusting I guess!

go for it.

if they emailed you about it i don't see any reason why you can't add another account to see if you get the money.

will probably have a go my self.
