Best app ever

5
I use the app every day I never need to go into the branch or ring to speak to a advisor, I can move my own money, make payments to friends and other companies, I’ve opened savings accounts, took photos of cheques rather than depositing these in a bank, I like that I can see my transactions and now pending transactions, I have set up standing orders and cancelled my own direct debits and even used the chat to order a new cheque book, I like that I can call use of the direct call option I have only used this once it was simple, I have packs on my account and like that I can view the terms and contact details at any time from my app and even downloaded apps for my rac cover and the phone insurance cover, I use this app daily and could not be without it Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
