Replacement for Egg Money Manager

db666

Barclays has bought all of our credit card accounts. We anticipate that by May 2011, you will become a Barclaycard customer and you will receive a new Barclaycard later this year. As we get closer to transferring your account, Barclaycard will be in contact with you. Until then nothing will change as a result of the sale - Egg will continue to manage your account in accordance with your current terms and conditions, relevant regulations and prudent lending principles.

We will work closely with Barclaycard to ensure a smooth transition.

I use the egg money manager quite a lot and like the way they arrange the egg credit card statements - I'm not very keen on the Barclays site so... assuming they take the egg.com website offline has anyone got any suggestions on a decent replacement?

I don't mind registering for another card etc....

I have a first direct card which has the facilitly for a money manager but it isn't quite as good.

This is of course if they get rid fo the money manager but if they dont then that's a bonus..

Barclaycard are only purchasing the credit card accounts of egg, all other accounts will be offered by egg and egg manager will be available for use as is now.

Or you could open an egg savings account and still have access to EMM that way.

Once your Egg credit card is replaced by a Barclaycard, you'll only be able to view statements through the Barclaycard site, even if you get there via EMM.

Just a technicality but I think that's an if and not a when.

That's the company that produces the software that EMM uses (FD Plus also uses the same software), but you can, as you've found out, also use it directly through ewise. Egg & FD customise it so it looks a bit different on the three services, but underneath it all uses the same "engine". I've been using it through ewise for a long time - I prefer the look, the speed, the way accounts are organised and the fact that I can access accounts in more than one country.
