How internet banking should be in 2020

5
Everything about a Monzo account is simple. Switch Guarantee ensures everything moves over properly to your new account. Customer service is almost instant. New features & updates are plentiful. Monzo is a front-runner in the new internet banking age & definitely takes the hassle out of banking for me and millions of other customers. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great product with helpful folks running the show!

I've been with Monzo since the Beta stage of testing their product and it's been a great product over the years. they've made many improvements and the current product is second to none. Especially as many of my friends use it! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great bank, amazing customer service

I’ve been with Monzo since the prepaid days and have to say that I love it - my wife and I have joint accounts too and the instant feedback and insight on our personal and joint finances has been amazing Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best challenger bank

I have always been happy with Monzo and they have amazing customer service. Reviewed on: 18th January 2020

Simple, Transparent, Efficient

5
Immediate alerts when money is spent, categorised spending and simple access to 3rd-party savings accounts (so pretty good rates thanks to making them compete). Lightyears ahead of the old banks. Reviewed on: 18th January 2020

More Tech than Bank

3
Although I have no problem with Monzo, and I wish them every success, I feel they focus more on the tech and community aspects of their business than they do on being a bank. This would not be right for everyone, hence the lower recommendation score, but I still wish them every success Reviewed on: 18th January 2020

Poor product

1
They keep chaning their policies and taking away things that made them good at the beginning. They are also trying their had to push a horrible Plus version of their current account and they are planning to take away essential features like customer service. Be wary if you have cash as you will be charged an extra £1 for deposit. Stay away from Monzo and use any other bank, even old fashioned banks are better. Reviewed on: 18th January 2020

The best bank

By far. Still not perfect. But there is no better Reviewed on: 18th January 2020

Revolutionised budgeting for me

5
Using Monzo has fundamentally changed how I interact with money. I am so much more in control of my spending and haven’t used my overdraft at all since making the switch. The instant transaction notifications have also saved me from potential fraud this week and after I froze my card and reported it I got a new card the very next day. Absolute hero’s.
