Especially international airlines sure as Thai Air, Philippine Air, Singapore Air, Cathay Pacific etc.? Thanks. josephstern Apr 4, 09, 9:40 am I just started using Pageonce, and I'm pretty happy with the service. It doesn't do everything. Shortcoming, in my limited use so far, are: -No AA -Expiration dates for some, but not all, programs -Can't seem to login to some of my accounts positives are: -nice interface -free (but ad-laden) -iPhone client (free, ad-laden, or paid, with no ads) -has a lot of other accounts that it can track, like rarely used credit cards, etc. Brobbel Apr 4, 09, 11:25 am Others, which have their own advantages and shortcomings: miletracker.com (also available as desktop version, but that's very outdated) awardwallet.com mileagemanager.com cblaisd Apr 4, 09, 11:54 am miletracker.com Sadly, what started out as a great program got destroyed by inches and now is pretty worthless, imo.

The best one I have found is by a bank! ^ Bank of America website for those of us with BofA accounts of any type, has a tab- my portfolio- here you can enter all your investment or real estate or rewards accounts I do not use the free Quantum card much, but the website is better than any and every mileage manager program. For one, you can keep track of all family members in 1 place. I paid 15$ each for mileage manager before I discovered this site. I now keep track of my whole family in 1 place. ffI Apr 5, 09, 7:46 pm Which airlines miles mangager website has the most airlines included in its service?

Have you ever look at http://www.mileagemanager.com/forbes.php ? ffI Apr 5, 09, 10:02 pm Have you ever look at http://www.mileagemanager.com/forbes.php ? Thanks Now all I have to figure out is how to get my paid account ported over to the Forbes version. imm2b Apr 6, 09, 12:00 am I use Yodlee.com and have been happy with it. Wilbur Apr 6, 09, 7:23 am I use Yodlee.com and have been happy with it. I agree - Yodlee. gj83 Apr 6, 09, 7:26 am I use Yodlee.com and have been happy with it. The previously mentioned BoA site subscribes to Yodlee I believe. Fidelity and Wachovia also use Yodlee. I use the BofA website to track all my stuff, but it doesn't like my marriott login very well. No issues with any of my airline or other hotel programs though. josephstern Apr 10, 09, 9:28 am So no one else uses Pageonce? Should I be moving over to Yodlee? Do they have an iPhone app or mobile website? Brobbel Apr 10, 09, 10:21 am So no one else uses Pageonce? Should I be moving over to Yodlee? Do they have an iPhone app or mobile website? I'm use Pageonce besides others. As you mentioned there are some problems (like missing AA), but others have their own advantages and shortcomings. friedice Apr 10, 09, 2:55 pm Do they have an iPhone app or mobile website? Yep: https://mobile.yodlee.com LosDeus Apr 11, 09, 7:41 pm Second the Yodlee recommendations. It's pretty basic though, and you have to actually go to the airline's site to find out when your miles expire / how many upgrades you have / etc. Plus is that it tracks everything under the sun (especially good for bank accounts) cblaisd Apr 12, 09, 3:30 am So no one else uses Pageonce? I love PageOnce. As I said, it's what MileTracker could have been before it became useless. The little blurb when you run it on the iPhone suggesting the Pro/paid version is not at all obtrusive or annoying, imo. And I really like the fact that you get daily emails from the website noting what balances have changed and how much. thebat Apr 12, 09, 8:32 am Second the Yodlee recommendations.

I agree. I am even a little leary of giving up my FF accounts. I still would do it if it was very convenient. I can't quite figure out the Yodlee.com. I don't see anything about FF accounts? friedice Apr 12, 09, 2:00 pm Can you do husband and wife to track all mileage/hotel programs? Yes, you can add multiple accounts of the same type. friedice Apr 12, 09, 2:12 pm I would never trust a third-party site with bank account information. http://www.yodlee.com/security_overview.shtml Yodlee is pretty secure. After all some major banks including BofA are their clients and their apps are based on Yodlee's Moneycenter. All the password information is encrypted. If you don't trust them, U shouldn't trust BofA, Wachovia etc. Even though I didn't like working for the company and had some issues with it, I find Moneycenter the most convinient and simple way to track all of my accounts and use it on daily basis.

I don't see anything about FF accounts? When you link an account, you can just type in the frequent flyer program. As for husband/wife, they won't segregate them for you but I think you can enter in multiple logins. LosDeus Apr 13, 09, 2:44 pm http://www.yodlee.com/security_overview.shtml Yodlee is pretty secure.

I think it is a valid concern because it's presents a single point of failure. However, as you've pointed out, a lot of financial institutions trust them so they have an incredibly strong incentive to keep themselves hack-proof. crabbing Apr 15, 09, 8:15 am i know i'm in the minority, but my preferred mile manager remains miletracker. for me, its key benefits are (1) it is a desktop program separate from my browser (this matters when i have 5-10 windows open, but want to quickly check my balances) and (2) i can keep track of my entire family's FF accounts. while it doesn't keep track of expiration dates, i'm not aware of any free manager that does. there are programs that it can't keep track of (mypoints, e.g.), but it does track the ones i really care about. josephstern Apr 15, 09, 9:45 am i'm not aware of any free manager that does. there are programs that it can't keep track of (mypoints, e.g.), but it does track the ones i really care about. Pageonce does, for some airlines (Northwest, Southwest, United, US Airways, at least). Ad-driven, but otherwise free. goldfish01 Apr 25, 09, 8:03 pm i know i'm in the minority, but my preferred mile manager remains miletracker. for me, its key benefits are (1) it is a desktop program separate from my browser (this matters when i have 5-10 windows open, but want to quickly check my balances) and (2) i can keep track of my entire family's FF accounts. while it doesn't keep track of expiration dates, i'm not aware of any free manager that does. there are programs that it can't keep track of (mypoints, e.g.), but it does track the ones i really care about. Are there any that keep track of expiration and are secure? I am very afraid of someone using the logins and passwords to buy tickets if I don't login often enough and find that they disappeared. And the Airline would deny responsibility because it was not their site. I have had fraud on my sprint account. SingaporeDon Apr 27, 09, 10:02 am USA Today Miletracker seemed to have started off well, but has gone down hill now and cannot log into many of the programs. Also does not have expiry dates. Have stared using awardwallet.com. Track all family members FF accounts together. Some nice touches like My Trips which pulls up all your travel/hotel bookings and also emails to you when there is a change in any account. Expiry dates on for a few programs only, but if you donate them a few bucks, they can give you expiry dates on all programs. The only downside is web based so someone has all your userids and passwords ( Although I think they have a computer based version too) angelsgirl85 Apr 28, 09, 1:11 am Thanks for pointing out the forbes free version of mileage manager. I somehow missed that one. Is it just as good as the paid service? Brobbel Apr 28, 09, 1:45 pm Thanks for pointing out the forbes free version of mileage manager. I somehow missed that one. Is it just as good as the paid service? AFAIK it's the same (ie it has the same futures), only it looks a bit different. |
