Ahh yes, an API on top of your bank... this was the promise of Simple Bank, one that they have now almost wholly backed out of which is quite disappointing. Don't get me wrong I still love them as my bank but I was really looking forward to an API that never materialized.

Well, there goes the last reason to hold on to my Simple account. The API is what I was hoping for.

Simple's support is bar none IMHO but I'm right there with you, the API was a BIG reason to why I signed up.

I've had no issues what so ever with CapitalOne 360. Simple doesn't provide me anything over them...

The idea of an API was the ONLY reason why I created a Simple account. It is really sad that they aren't going to expose an API.

Same here.
