    Not heard about Love Money, have you got a link?

    I still use EMM, and my fallback plan is AccountUnity (which actually is the same technology powering EMM, but there's no easy migration, and I cba re-typing all my bank details if I don't have to)

    Basic graphs and budgeting you can't edit/customise
    Often miscategorises transactions.
    The ability to pull transactions breaks for weeks on end whenever a bank changes their logon process. They blame their supplier (same one the other websites use to collect transactions, Yodlee).
    They have been promising a version 2 for over 2 years and not in sight.

    Give it ago but just remember your account details are stored on the internet somewhere with Yodlees servers who are partially US based, not in an encrypted file on your PC like Egg MoneyManager. I wouldn't say it's a huge risk as they would be salted and hashed but know the difference.

    I'm not so worried about the graphs and budgeting, I just really want to see all my accounts and credit cards in one place, if it's not safe though I'm not so sure......hmmmmmmmmmm................

    It's basically the same as EMM, just the layout is a bit different. They are usually a lot quicker with adding new banks and/or updating existing ones. You'll like them if you liked EMM :-)

    First Direct internet banking plus gives access to all your online accounts in one place, I was just not certain about security having to share other bank login details on their platform.

    The bank details are stored locally encrypted on your PC in your browser. If you log on to a different PC you'll notice all your details would be missing. Slight better than LoveMoney et al
