Recently active questions in Mint

I know this may sound a little bit like overkill, but it my perfect world of banking, I'd like to be notified of every single transaction I make. I'd like to just get a lightweight stream of everything that clears my account, preferably via SMS, although e-mail would work, too. The way I imagine it, I'd simply see every debit or credit as a text message.

Is this possible with Mint, or am I a complete edge case?

I wish creating budgets was more simple. I want to clear all the default and create my own. Thank you for mint. Great website.

I would think that if you can find my ING account, I'd be able to list my sharebuilder account too. Is that not possible? Will it be in the future?

Mint is currently failing to retrieve data from my Citibank bank accounts. Mint tells me "Your accounts here seem to be closed," which they are not.

This likely has something to do with a failure on Citi's end -- I've been having trouble using their system with FF2 on the mac for the last few days. Works fine in Safari, oddly.

Would appreciate an update on this.

I use of BofA and I have two checking accounts in California with them....but the titles of the accounts are incredibly long.

"Bank of America - All except WA & ID (Checking & Savings only)"

In the future, can I change these names to shorter aliases?
Let me know, thanks.

I just want to close my account with Mint and I wasn't able to figure out how. I don't use it and I don't even know why I started to in the first place. I don't want my financial info on some 3rd party company I don't know much about. Any help would be great.

I have several credit cards with the same financial institution and they all have similar names in the system -- e.g. "LottaCash Credit Card American Express" and "LottaCash Credit Card Mastercard". When those names are truncated on some screens I can't easily tell which is which. Is there an interface somewhere to attach my own short names to them?

I have heard that all bank log-in and password data is not accessible by Mint employees and is actually stored and managed on Yodlee servers. Is this true? Are there any other security concerns that anyone else has?

I noticed that none of my account transactions date further back than 3 or 4 months. Is this a limitation on your end or on my accounts?

I would be more than happy to import the data myself.

It would be really nice to have a view into more than the last few months of my transactions.

This will make the system indispensable for me.

And when can I get one? The suspense is killing me.

I'm fine with it, but a lot of people who saw the Mint demo mentioned to me that they're very uncomfortable with trusting Mint with their most private passwords, the ones they use for their financial services.

Wesabe solves this problem by using a desktop application that stores all your financial passwords, and only reports the data up to the Wesabe site. Does Mint plan to do something similar in the near future?

I understand that it's Web-based and free (both good things!) but I'm curious how it will work for me in ways that Quicken doesn't.
