Thanks for this. I've been looking for a solution for this problem for a while and this looks like a good attempt.

While bank statements scraping or API is good, it may be useful for somebody to note that that it's often possible to import your historic bank statements using scanned images or PDFs. Excel and many accounting programs have this feature. (I haven't personally done this yet though)

Excellent point about PDFs. Some Weboob modules scrape PDF statements as well: at least Amazon Store Card, Wells Fargo and Citibank (disclaimer - written by yours truly). But even with these statements sometimes whole history cannot be restored. For example, Citibank stores statements for only so many years.
