One of my accounts has duplicates of a whole bunch of august transactions. There are two copies with the same business name, amount and date. I can't see any way to clear these out...is there some way to fix this?

I removed and re-added the account and it resolved the problem. This isn't the ideal solution though because I had to do some re-categorizing after adding the account again.

A known issue we're trying to resolve (doesn't happen with all accounts). Sorry about the inconvenience! We're still working out a lot of bugs in the beta phase.

Can you shoot me an email (feedback@mint.com) with:

dates of the transactions
amount of the transactions & the merchant name (for matching)

Note: Please send to me if this is still happening with some.

It's no longer an issue for me since I removed my account. Looking at the link you sent, there's a chance it took a couple tries to get the account added when I first started with mint. Maybe during those few tries at adding the account it ended up bringing some transactions in more than once.

I think the fix went in late on the 7th. If your account was removed after that point, then the fixes should have helped spot the duplicates.

I am still seeing a lot of duplicates. One thing I have noticed since switching to Mint from Wesabe is that Mint pulls all the pending transactions from my account (Wesabe did not). I am almost certain that is the problem with my account as all pending transactions are labeled as "PENDING title of transaction." After the transaction goes through the pending is dropped and it is just "title of transaction." But after setting up some rules, Wesabe automatically renames the pending and non-prefaced transactions thus creating two of each.

Perhaps Mint should ignore Pending transactions, or at least know how to tie the two together.
