Quick and Sleak

5
Signed up to see what all the hype was about, my card was expected to be delivered today, I received it on Saturday so delivery was fast and efficient. It was really simple to set up, all it took was entering the card details and the pin was text. The app is minimal and easy to use, i was shocked at how fast it picked up payments. I bought some drinks at the bar, the app had notified me of the charges before i even got back to my seats. Very Fast. It logs the retailer, the location of the transaction and correctly categorises the transaction. You can add notes and the receipt to the transaction so you can keep track of what was purchased.

Interesting concept

Downloaded the app when I got access to the Mondo beta. Had lots of trouble signing up, it rejected my email about several times before I actually managed to progress, then it just dumps you at a "wait in the queue" screen which isn't exactly the sleekest sign-up. Once I did get to the front of the queue, my card came quickly, and despite having to load it with £100 which seems like a lot - the card is actually almost "fun" to use - like the notifications, and the "you've spent £XX today" features. Wait with baited breath to see where they go with their current account... Reviewed on: 23rd March 2016
