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?
Every time a repeat transaction shows up on Mint, it shows with it's original name, even though I went through the first time and renamed things with the "Always rename" box checked. Wal-Mart always shows as "Wal" and I have to go in and rename it to "Wal-Mart" and recategorize it as shopping, even though I have done this four times now with the "always rename" and "always categorize" boxes checked. These checkboxes are a good idea, but they don't work; please fix them.
Mint "supports" my Chase credit card, but it only gets the balance and credit limit, not any information on the interest rate or -- much more importantly -- the list of transactions. If Mint only shows me the current balance, it isn't effectively tracking my spending or helping me budget.
