I have this same problem. I use HSBC Bank and the integration is truly
seamless. However, my credit card has a positive balance just like my
checking account. This makes no sense on the Account List because it adds
both together as my total account balance. There can't be any way that this
is by design. Is there a patch for this? A workaround? Anything?

It's been asked hundreds of times: When I create a credit card account
and begin to import statements, my accounts show up in the accounts list
with positive balances. The result is an incorrect Total Account
Balance. This is dumb

Before someone flames me off the list, I have been googling this for
some time now. I've read several pages worth of search results. The
only thing that I see consistently (from a couple of MVPs and other
frequent posters) is along these lines: "It's supposed to be like that.
Look at the account detail, and you'll see the correct amount that you
owe."

This is all well and good, but so far I haven't found a single person
who can explain to me why Money fails to correctly calculate the Total
Account Balance which, as near as I can tell, is the entire purpose of
the program.

Does anyone else agree that the Total Account Balance is a useless
figure if you have to manually calculate the *real* TAB from the *make
believe* TAB every single time you use Money?

Does anyone happen to know why this is the way that it is?

My own problems aside, I'm really hoping that countless millions of
development dollars weren't wasted because someone used a '+' instead of
a '-'...

Thanks,
