When Chip first launched, it was a really great concept. An app that would help you save more with you barely having to lift a finger after signing up. They do not appear to listen to their user base, and change direction with very little notice to the end user.

They have been around for a few years now, yet lots of bugs remain trying to link your Chip account with your own high street bank, and their default stance is to sign you up to their paid service.

You can opt out, so lose the AI savings feature and still save into their 0.3% account manually, or transfer into their 1.25% bonus account, where you are only paid a bonus on withdrawing your full deposit, and the bonus is non compounding.

If you are looking to try out their AI savings, then the first £100 auto saved is free. You are then charged £1.50 every 28 days, regardless if it is able to save you anything or not, so £19.50 a year.

The app certainly helps confuse the simple, and is definitely not orientated at the financially savvy either, so not sure what the target audience is.

Yes they put money away for you but they are very careless with your money. I have found several deductions which appear on my bank statement but are not accounted for on my Chip statement. The impression I get is that it's a bunch of millennials who are very casual about other people's money. If you have a problem they send you a smiley face and expect you to suck it up.

Chip have stolen my money

I have tried to send the money back to my account several times. Chip then closed my account without giving me my money back- fraud company

Don't do it

Went to withdraw my money and said money got lost. Chip doesn't have it, my bank doesn't have it and the worst part is they have no answers. No idea where my money is

Hassle free

The easiest way to save outside of your current invested saves. Small amounts which would have easily been spent or left in the bank.
