Stay away from Billpay
by mikekesq ,Oct 07 '03
Pros: Free stuff is good. Cons: Nonresponsive, cavalier attitude about your money.
Billpay has been a nightmare. I signed up, the first bill that came due failed to produce the requisite reminder. By the time I realized it, it was too late for Yahoo to process the payment. As a result, my payment was difficult to make on time, necessitating a call to the company I owed, giving them my checking account info., personal information, etc. Yahoo's response was that I should check my reminders and make sure they were right. I did so, and there was no problem on my end. I told Yahoo, and their response was that this is not a Yahoo BillPay problem, but rather Yahoo Finance's responsibility. The exact email read, "Thank you for writing. The payment reminder function is not a feature of Yahoo! Bill Pay. For assistance with your inquiry, please contact Yahoo! Finance at the following address: finance-admin@yahoo-inc.com"
This non-answer is not acceptable, and smells of buck-passing. This is your money. You should not risk one dime on a service that appears not too terribly concerned with your money, potential late fees, etc.
I would avoid the Billpay, and stick to what doesn't cost anything, and services that do not endanger your wallet.

New charts need more explanation
by woodland518 ,Dec 14 '06
Pros: Nice looking, fast, no apparent bugs Cons: Inadequate documentation
I just tried this out. Several years ago, it seemed like there were lots of places where you could compare mutual funds using a "growth of 10,000" type chart. This is a really useful approach because the growth is adjusted for dividends or capital distributions.
For me, I'm investing long term in mutual funds and reinvesting all distributions. It doesn't make sense to compare just prices over, say, 5 years. It does not result in an apples-to-apples comparison.
I can't tell if the new Yahoo Finance charts are doing true comparisons, or just comparing prices. The documentation does not explain.
Where can I compare my mutual funds? Where?
