My mature self!

Being a reasonable young lad, I've always enjoyed the social life and worrying about the consequences later. The consequence being having no money at the end of the month or worse yet, no money put away for rainy days. This has changed however, with plum. Since joining about 6 months ago, It saved me around £200 (doesn't sound much over 6 months but considering that for the past 10 years I've never had any savings because I've been silly with my wage and never had the chance to put a little bit away due to my inability to say "no" to that final pint of stella or "I'll pass" on cheeky nandos) As I said, with the help of plum, it saved me £200. Just in time for Christmas. £200 extra I've never had at that time of year. This made it one of the best Christmas's ever. Why? No money worries. Presents were paid for, food and drink consumed with no worry and all thanks to plum, taking money out it knows I can save. I wouldn't of done this on my own. Knowing plum is putting little amounts away for me each month is a huge reassurance and also helps me think more about what I'm spending and how to manage money better so I have more savings in the long run. Seemless saving Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

So easy to use!

I was a little hesitant at first, as it seems a little strange to use Facebook Messenger to save - but after reading the reviews, and the Plum information, I was happy to try. I was surprised at how easy it was to set up and link my bank account, and start saving! I didn't ever notice being short on cash, but soon noticed the amount that had accumulated in my Plum savings! It is just a great little AI bot that really does help you save, based on what you can afford at certain times - I'm shocked at how quickly the savings have added up! I really recommend anyone who is looking to save a little more cash to have a look and give Plum a try! Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Absolutely Fantastic

Hardly notice saving at all. Don't have to think about anything and adjusts saving amount depending on spend. Will help an awful lot of people. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Excellent easy to use

Excellent user friendly service taking only minutes to set up . Provides the ability to save in overdraft. Fast and efficient problem solving and with the ability to speak to a human if not working correctly/any problems with individual accounts. Provided me with savings when I thought I didn’t have the ability to save. The different mood settings are a great way oc controlling how much is saved. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Fire and forget saving at its finest

Plum is a friendly little robot that lives in Messenger and helps you save. Backed by a great supportive team of real people and clever technology this is a really helpful way to save without even really paying attention. Giving daily updates on your cash flow and letting you adjust your savings according to your needs via different "moods" make it a great, flexible approach suitable for a wide range of budgets too So glad I started using it!!

Really works!

I’ve never ever in my life been able to save any money, even though I’ve had more of it in the past. I stumbled across an ad about Plum and was immediately intrigued, even more so after I read more into it. Setting it up was easy and fast and it’s also simple to use. I never notice the money leaving my account and my savings grow without me realizing! It’s a perfect way to have some emergency money on the side. I withdrew all my savings around Christmas and started saving again. I’ve saved up almost £150 already, and not realized a thing! Really really recommend it to everyone, I’m so happy.

Quickest and easiest way to save money!!

5
I LOVE plum because it’s a great way to save money without having to actually do anything about it! It’s just an ingenius idea and perfect for people like me that want savings but get side tracked with other things and end up fogetting! I’ve saved way more money than I expected and it’s motivated me to do that ‘save £15’ option so I’ve got even more. I’m on maternity leave at the minute so it’s going to help me in the last couple of months when I don’t get any more maternity pay so I can stay at home with my little one before going back to work which is my priority right now. Thanks Plum for helping me, I’m so pleased I joined! I’m telling all my friends and family about it too Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Great app

5
As a 34 year old man I have been terrible at saving (as have all millenials, the media tells me) so having this app squirrel away small savings for me which add up to hundreds of pounds over a few months has really helped. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Best savings app ever

Love saving with plum, don’t realise the money leaving my account! Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Simple and efficient solution to forming better financial habits

5
Plum have clearly invested well in their customer service dept, any questions I've asked have been addressed quickly. Setting it up is extremely easy, as is maintaining and monitoring it. There's loads of support available for those thinking about investing as well as saving too. Highly recommend! I think people are initially wary of the idea of some AI software automatically deducting money from your bank account, but once you join and get going you see how good a solution this is to those wanting to save in a manageable, sustainable way.
