Monzo is amazing for anyone terrible at budgeting

5
Monzo has been a great account for anyone challenged by budgeting. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Simply fantastic

5
Love that I can access this purely online/on my phone as a busy person. The information provided on each one of my transactions helps me budget and keep track of my spending. The bill splitting function is great, and the overall application process is practical and easy. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Super easy and intuitive, app-powered.

Chose these guys 18 months ago and have not looked back. Its what a bank looks like when re-imagined, it's app based which is not unique. But its 100% app based, so fast. Customer service is chat based, splitting bills, requesting payment, notification feeds of even why a transaction didn't go through like when I get the CVV number wrong. I never have to call anyone, it's free ( although I appreciate that I will need to pay eventually) and even when I go abroad I use the card at fair exchange rate. I can even upload a photo to be an an icon for all the places where I spend money. Its superb. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Brilliant

Easy to set up and easy to manage Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Amazing financial service

Easy budgeting and management of money with a clear app Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Wonderful for the moment

5
I enjoy the app, trust the instant notifications, the super swift customer help - not only that but the almost immediate refunds from shops when my card was stolen, Monzo dealt with it very simply and I was super grateful. I often recommend it to friends but I'm curious about why Starling Bank is also seen as so consistently good. Hands down, beats my old high-street bank, but I do wonder how they can keep getting better and what the future holds... Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Best app in the UK

5
I've tried Sandander, but also Starling Bank. Monzo, for me, is number 1. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Couldn't ask for a better bank.

Transparent, functional, friendly and fully featured. Monzo is an absolute joy to use. I couldn't ask for more! Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

The Pinnacle of 'App Based Banking'

5
Monzo is the kind of company that 'listens' to it's customers and actually publishes that it is indeed listening. It then holds itself 'accountable' to certain timelines by prioritising customer requests. These are voted for by the outstanding forums- and it truly feels like this is (smart) 'community led banking' for this generation. The best recommendations are word-of-mouth and truly, I have been an ambassador (for free!) to herald Monzo's app and service structures. Give them a try- you will definitely switch to this enhanced way of banking. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018
