ns&i and Egg Money Manager - Your help needed!

poppy10_2

Using the Egg money manager can actually be against the terms and conditions of your bank accounts - usually they state you are not allowed to disclose your username and password to anyone else, even if it is encrypted by Egg.

Most banks are reasonable about this, but a few like A&L play silly !!!!!!s.

I think banks do this to protect themselves also. If someone who doesn't understand internet very well and gives away this information and then get fruaded (right word?) then the bank cannot be blamed.

Also Egg has a questionnaire which I did and I stated that I wanted to have NS&I on their account list

As has been said before the underlying technology provider for eggs and first directs account aggregation service is ewise.com.au

You are not supplying your user name and password to anyone else those details are encrypted and stored on your own computer.
Although I have seen some T+Cs that say you are not allowed to store passwords electronically even in encrypted form.
