Rant warning

Just logged onto my low usage Barclays account and I'm greeted by an
empty statement saying "there are no transactions for the period you
selected". WTF.. I haven't selected any period ... oh, it says "in the
last 30 days", true I haven't used them for over 30 days but I want to
update by spreadsheet from April.

There is a facility to view old transactions online, but you have to
sign up for it, you can't do it retrospectively AFAIK

Somewhere near the free kaspersky AV offer

Barclays used to let you go back several (at least six?) months, but
now it's only about six weeks. [The oldest transaction in my current
account is 15 August.] On the other hand, Halifax seem to let you go
back 'for ever'.

I just download all my accounts weekly to microSoft Money

That's it

no problem


MS money stopped working for me years ago. The last UK version was,
IIRC, about 2004???

2009?, but GNUCash will import all formats of MS Money data. Note that:-

Also applies, follow the link and instructions for a working, no
activation needed, version of Money Plus.
