Absolutely the best Current Account bank

5
So clear, simple and honest with the fees, communications, roadmap. It’s refreshing to see. Only slight issue is the speed of customer care, but given you’ll likely never need to them, as everything else is so good, I can live with it. Reviewed on: 16th January 2019

Simple straightforward modern way to bank

5
Perfect banking app. It lets you categorise spending so you can see where your money is going. Transactions are immediate - the app has notified me of a spend before the cash register has finished! Great for transferring money to/from people you know. We use the joint account too and it’s brilliant. Highly recommend Reviewed on: 16th January 2019

Great Customer Experience

I have been a customer of Monzo for the past four months. I have not complained about a single thing they do. The transactions are easy, transferring in a out is very fast, you can set yourself budgets, you can easily manage your dedicated monthly payments and you can even use the help of IFTTT, to save regularly. I use them for the 1p challenge and the 1p reverse challenge; both of which are building up nicely. A few things that I would comment on: possibly being able to create your own Categories. The default ones are excellent, but being able to be more specific would be outstanding, especially if you have OCD like myself. Secondly and not that I have anything wrong with it at all as I love it, but maybe give customer a choice of different coloured cards, or cards that they could add design, pattern or even pictures to. Thirdly, savings accounts with interest: I’m not sure whether or not this is being worked on, but not a lot of people have that £1000 to start off the account with, but would like to open one. Considering that 1% is higher than a lot of banks and building society’s have on offer, which you can access. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019
