1. Now perhaps I'm missing something, but there appears to be no way to display the amount remaining before the spend limit you've set is reached, or conversely, as on the desktop site shows, $total.spent/$spendlim3 cardit.set per (month, year, whole card).I've been using Privacy for a little over a year now and it's quickly become the most helpful and indispensable financial tool of all that I use.
2. This app has come in handy when I just wanted to do a free trial of something but I have to give credit card details and they make it very difficult to figure out how to cancel, so I just set a $1 spending limit so they can't charge me.
3. prevents charges from free trials ending, or recurring subscriptions from changing their price, protects your real credit card info, and best of all, it doesnt cost you anything.
4. Only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars.With the increased state of cyber intrusions on all our systems, I have grown fond of this service, to protect my credit card info.
5. Now you may say thats sketchy, right? when a product is free, that means YOU are the product, right? nope! privacy makes money because instead of your bank getting the debit card % cut, privacy does.
6. Privacy has truly made my life easier and makes tracking my spending easier, as an unintended side effect of seeing all transactions by card type.
7. They can't with PrivacyI've been locked out of the app and can't enter to manage my cards / subscriptions because of "suspicious activity" and every time I put the email 2-factor code in it says "request timeout" while the internet works great on every other app.
8. There are some usability issues with the app itself that could be improved and some things that are not intuitive even after using it over and over like the red button in the upper cornerAmazing! At first I was skeptical but this app is a game changer when it comes to paying for things online.
9. This kind of app can not fail like this when I can be charged by so many subscriptions that I can't even remember every one with no way to pause it.I've used this service for years now, and apart from some issues when I first started using the app, it's incredible.
10. The protection Privacy provides is unmatched, and since using it, I wouldn't want to live without it!Overall this is an amazingly useful service and a logical and easy-to-use companion app.
11. I like narrowing the security of the transaction to the vendor and or putting a limit on the spending in case the vendor starts to charge me for recurring charges or any other crazy stuff.
I signed up for and used Privacy.com for several months a while back. I don't remember when I stopped using the service(s) of Privacy.com, but I remember getting tired of the number of clicks/steps it took to make things work. Also, the transactions that would import into my budget tracker from my bank only showed privacy.com, which became a hassle when balancing things.
Anyway, I want to give Privacy.com another try. My old login information no longer works; so I created a new account with the same Email address as before. To connect bank accounts to fund cards made on Privacy.com, I need to provide my contact details, which were mostly the same as before, and I'm getting an error indicating that my phone number is associated with a different account, which I assume is the account I once had that I can't log into.
Is there a way to merge the old & new accounts into 1 functional account? Or can one of these accounts be permanently deleted so the other can work? If none of this is possible, then please permanently delete any & all accounts associated with my Email (dbmorris85@redacted) & phone number (352-449-8200), & I'll consider starting completely over.
I appreciate any assistance I can get toward resolving this.
