I can't seem to get MS Money 2007 to work with HSBC Banking USA. MS Money says I need a special online account from HSBC but I don't see that option to sign up for one. The only account I have is the HSBC Internet Banking and it doesn't work. Anyone know how to get this to work?

WTF i just found out HSBC is charging $9.99 to use their OFX/direct connect service.. The whole reason I switched from ING Direct to HSBC was because ING Direct no longer works w/ MS Money. Now I have 2 worthless online savings.

And I have a really lonngg customer ID # that's like 20 digits and everytime I need to log in, I gotta punch that crap in. this really sucks.

I bought MS Money 2006 for the single purpose of viewing all of my accounts (checking, savings, and credit card) balances all on one page. I wanted a quick glance feature of my financial position. I set it up and MS Money was only able to automatically view 2 of my total 8 accounts. I uninstalled it and I won;t be trying 2007. Others have complained about this problem as well.
