Egg Money Manager

Barclaycard recently took over my Egg Credit card and now I can't use the Egg Money Manager. Has anyone got any suggestions as to an alternative Money Manager that I can use?

The company that provides the software used by Egg Money Manager is Ewise. You can access the same service directly on their servers - http://www.ewise.com.au/accunity/demo/demo.asp

I've got the same problem. As I understand it you can continue to use the Egg manager if you had a saving account with them, which I think has now been taken over by Yorkshire building society.

A thread from last year suggested Money Dashboard.

I would also like to hear if anybody has any alternative suggestions or has experience of using Money Dashboard.

Thanks!

I have the same problem. I have found a couple of websites which offer a simiilar set up but from what I can tell you don't actually have access to your accounts through the websites. With Egg you could click on it and it would take you to the official banking website if you needed to transfer money of anything without having to input your bank details again. I'm not sure this is available on the other websites. They just show you the accounts on screen.

Account Unity does all of this.

Do you have a link for Account Unity? I've googled the website and I've found a site that tells me all about it. Maybe I'm being thick but I can't see where to sign up for it?!

You have to be using Internet Explorer (or faking it with something like Chrome's IE-Tab extension).

I personally use First Directs version (the same as Egg Money and the Accunity thing I believe). Probably exactly the same but it looks better! (You don't need to be a First Direct customer)

I have bought an Apple computer and find now unable to use Moneymanager. So now having to do everything manually. Bit of a pain!

I've now registered with Account Unity and, although it does't look as nice as the Egg Money Manager, it does the trick.

Thanks for the advice!
