So let me get this straight. I can no longer use Mint alone but MUST switch to Credit Karma?? I just tried Karma and it's useless to me. Is there some way to revert back to just good old Mint?

Mint is permanently closing on 01/01/2024. There are other applications you can use such as Quicken.

Hi, I agreed to transfer my data over to Credit KArma and my net worth went from a large positive balance to -$25K, and my data was clearly not all synced. I keep trying to get back to my old Mint page so I can record my info from Mint and make sure I have a record of all of my accounts to then try and resync directly into Credit Karma, or at least to have for my own future reference.

Is there a way for me to get back to my old Mint account after I already pressed the button to transfer to Credit Karma?

@Avikoz This is the TurboTax support forum. We cannot help you with Mint or Credit Karma. See if you can find the answer to your question in the Credit Karma Help Center or on the Mint Support web site.

You are not required to switch to Credit Karma. You can use any personal finance and budgeting software that you like, or not use any personal finance and budgeting software at all. But you cannot continue to use Mint alone, or together with anything else. Mint is going away. There is no way to revert to "good old Mint" because Mint will not exist anymore.

Creditkarma is basically useless unless you want to get a hundred credit cards; I tried to move when first announced - so many broken links, ads, useless pages, popups, etc, that I quit trying. Recently tried again....even worse///

I fully agree with the above assessment. Credit Karma DOES NOT replace the most important features of Mint. The inability to review and identify transactions defeats the purpose of using a financial program, I used Mint for tracking family finances. Quick Books is for businesses and self-employed individuals. Mint was perfect for my purposes and I had been using it for several years. I am not sure what Credit Karma’s purpose is other than to advertise additional credit cards to me that would actually lower my credit score if I applied. Mint updated my accounts everyday, Credit Karma updates on a schedule I have yet to figure out, but it is definitely slower than I would prefer.
I agree with the other response that I would rather pay to have Mint, rather than struggle with Credit Karma. I feel Intuit has abandoned the folks who depended on Mint to manage family finances and offered a poor excuse for a replacement. I challenge Intuit to survey former Mint users to solicit their honest opinions as to whether it was a good business decision to replace Mint with Credit Karma, I certainly vote NO!

Before someone tells me this is TurboTax support - Intuit should clearly identify where the Forums for individual programs resides. I searched for Customer Service and was directed here.
