    You've got to stick a non-egg account in money manager as well though.... Also I suspect you've got to have some funds in the accounts, you've got in money manager..
    Rather than a zero balance or an incorrect pass word, so that money manager can't read it, or something like that...

    I'm not sure about all this for a tenner...... am I being too much of a prude? lol

    For those using PPC Macs, you can also use Egg Money Manager with IE on Virtual PC. I did this the last time they had the £10 offer and it worked.

    The reason the OSX version of IE5 doesn't work is because Money Manager uses ActiveX, which is Windows only. Not that I use Money Manager or IE but it's a free tenner.

    For those using linux, using ie under wine works well.

    I added my NatWest online banking details to the money manager and NatWest blocked me! Its possible that I entered the details wrong but they blocked me after just one attempt. :confused:

    Thanks for this Martin. I am expecting my first baby and all money will come in handy. Opened a savings account with £1 to get the offer.
  • Good one!
    However, like two others already logged I get the IE error page up everytime I log in which if pressed closes down IE. Yes you can move it out the way and carry on but there must be a reason why this happens each time.
    Anyone help please?

    Had no problem putting in Nat West which another logger had problems with.

    wow i like egg money manager it is some good stuff. helps me keep track of my finances much better. this has probably been previously mentioned but are passwords stored online on a egg server or is an encypted file stored on your main computer with passwords? thanks
  • Is anyone else having problems adding either a Tesco Credit Card or Royal Bank of Scotland online account?
