Microsoft Money ( UK Version )

FishThrower · 14 Mar 2007 at 22:33

Hi all,

I downloaded the trial version of MS Money (the USA version) and found it being quite useful, but the "auto download statements from your bank" thing didnt work for Barclays. kept saying it was unaviable or something.

Can anyone confirm me that its OK and working in the UK version? I think the UK version is quite old as well isnt it?

The Uk version is 2002, although MS may have updated the gui on releases since then(the underlying release is 2002). And yes it does work with Barclays, all other Uk banks as well as far as i know.

It's 2003 actually, although 2005 has been released specific to the UK.

2005 may well be the latest release, but the program within that release is 2002. Otherwise why do the banks only offer the latest option as 2002, when downloading statements?

iirc 2002 didn't have a UK release, only 2003 did.

It doesn't work particularly well with statements from Abbey, but works fine with HSBC. But that's Abbey's fault, they only have out of date formats for the statement download.....
