Yes, if your BANK does direct statements.

Thanks for the advice.

Can I do "direct statements" and not have my data stored on MS computers?

The answer to that is purely the answerer's opinion. If your bank supports
direct statements, you need not go to their web site to download data, nor
do you need to store data on MS's servers.

If your bank does not support direct statements, downloading data is
important to you, and you're not married to your bank, consider switching
banks. For me, personally, that would be pretty easy. For others, having
lots of stuff set up through that bank could make it more difficult.

Default Compare update through passport and direct download

I like the update feature that uses my passport in that it gets all accounts
at once but...

I really don't like having my financial data on a microsoft computer and the
service seems spotty, at least during the last 3 weeks that I have been
using it.

Would I be better off just downloading account data from my bank's web site
in money format and importing it into money?

Roger
