What has happened? A lot of complains from paying users. This might kill the project. I could not back up my data.

I'm a buxfer user looking for a alternative for this service, recently the quality of the service isn't the best, i can't use Mint because my bank is not supported (i'm, living in spain) and they don't allow manual transaction management like Buxfer do. Anybody knows other service with manual transaction handling?
Running a startup is way much difficult than working for Facebook.
I'm sure it is. However that doesn't mean they don't owe their (apparently paying) users information. From what these folks are writing, nobody seems to have told them the service was going to be unsupported.
Seems alive for me.

Well, technically alive.

the name killed it for me.
So they just stop responding to emails? Is this right?

Wow...

I'd consider picking this up, not buying it, as a going concern if someone wants to talk.
I just logged in, no problem. Perhaps just a temporary outage from their service provider?

In any case, I'll take this opportunity to make a plea: I absolutely love Buxfer, and I hope you guys keep it alive in its present state, if possible. If this isn't possible, please try and either (a) sell it to an interested party, or (b) give us a little warning so we can export all of our data. I'd prefer (a). Worst case scenario, I can't believe that Mint wouldn't pay something for all the user accounts.
