    Well, I got the software bundle and installed Tesco Personal Finance. It’s very intuitive and easy to work with. I’ve been importing QIF files from Halifax online banking and it’s pretty straightforward. The only problem is, the graphs and reports button doesn’t work (clicking it just makes the program hang, with a timer for the mouse pointer) and I can’t see any other way of getting charts out of it. Has anyone else had this problem, or know what might be causing it? I wonder if it’s a Windows 7 64 bit problem? I’ve emailed Tesco Software support, as I know Moneydance don’t support the Tesco branded version.

    That glitch aside, still well worth a fiver (and I haven’t installed any of the other software yet…)

    https://www.lovemoney.com has a tool called Tracker which works for Natwest

    Hi, Is this safe enough to use? Just registered looks really good.

    Can't get the report function in Tesco Personal Finance to work. Contacted Tesco technical support, who inform me that the software isn't Windows 7 compatible and is discontinued. Odd, since it's still available to buy here: http://www.tesco.com/direct/tesco-software-bundle/202-4447.prd;jsessionid=GOe82K6nywcOiV8X-3Lhxg**.UKTULLF62V_slot2?skuId=202-4447&pageLevel=

    Might be worth a go if you're using Windows XP, but don't bother if you're on Windows 7!
  • Bank Genie will allow data to be imported from QIF, OFX and a number of csv files (including Natwest)

    The software works on XP, Vista and Window 7 (32bit and 64bit).

    Bank Genie Pro has an additional program to allow data to be imported from popular Financial and Money software which is discontinued in the UK.

    Microsoft Money used to access Nationwide directly, but this ended last year. No others banks/building societies ever offered a direct option.

    I still use Microsoft Money 2004. Still works perfectly well for me and you should be able to pick up a cheap copy of the UK version somewhere (e.g. ebay or Amazon).

    Money is now available free from the Microsoft website. contactus.mshop@tnsglobal.com. I've used it for years it uses qif downloads so you should be fine with it. My first direct account works fine

    Think you made a mistake with the link there!

    It also takes OFX files as well.

    Best product by far.
