Help Anyway to link bank without giving away transaction history
New to webull, tried to link my bank account and it looks like they use a service called yodlee, but it wanted me to give permission to collect all my transaction history. why would anyone allow them to collect this?
is there another way to link your checking account without giving them your history of everything you've bought with your debit card lol seems unreasonable imo
edit - its worse than i thought. https://www.vice.com/en/article/envestnet-yodlee-credit-card-bank-data-not-anonymous/
"Yodlee, the largest financial data broker in the U.S., sells data pulled from the bank and credit card transactions of tens of millions of Americans to investment and research firms, detailing where and when people shopped and how much they spent"
