Excellent way of saving

5
Plum is an easy way to save money without realising you are doing it! Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Amazing way to save

5
I've always been terrible at saving and can never seem to do it myself. Since taking a chance with Plum I've saved more than I would normally and it's so easy to use and easy to withdraw the money back if need be. Honestly would recommend it to anyone. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Easy

Plum does everything for you and you barely notice the money leaving. It has allowed me to build savings even as a student. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Save without trying!

Plum makes saving simple and worry free. I save at last £100 every month without even trying. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

A students experience

5
So I’ve been unfortunate enough to be constantly in my overdraft pretty much since the start of my second year. Living in Brighton is way too expensive for what it is. With plum I managed to save a whopping £2.80 something before I descended into pure poverty with literally no money to actually have Plum put away for me, every penny I have counts, and £2.80 is 2 loaves of bread and maybe some baked beans. With all that aside, I’d like to think if I actually had a bank account in the positive figures, I could actually put away some money with plum to go towards something big, like moving out of my current house or even just general life savings. I guess we’ll find out. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Super simple setup, convenient to save, but slow

Saving has never been easier. Plum automatically checks how much you can afford to save and does the work for you. Lovely and it works so well. That said, Plum didn't manage to create a secure document upload service (sending passport photos over email is screaming for identity theft) but instead added a feature to switch utility companies??? Plum's a savings account, not a utility company. I'd rather Plum works on safety and stability first and then moves on to adding random features like utility comparisons.....

Great Saving Tool

5
Love this setup, I use it religiously without even noticing as it just comes out of my bank in small increments. and then every so often I get a notification saying have been saving and the figure always gives me a smile and it's good. Also, love the bank account balance updates, it's better than what the bank offers themselves. Only just started trying out the investment section so not able to review that section currently. An overall great product, great service. They even called me up to ask how the product was getting on and if I had any feedback and some of that has actually been integrated. Great Job Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Great way to save in a number of ways.

5
It's very easy as the system is automated and takes out the time and effort spent doing these things yourself. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Amazing bot who does amazing things!

Plum has helped me save money for a rainy day- and as a student, that's super helpful! Has made me think about what I could save up for in the future, like a car etc. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Simple brilliance for hard-to-savers

5
Plum has helped me save thousands of pounds without even noticing! It’s rhe simplicity required for me as someone who finds it hard to save and my money is then stashed in a savings account that is way above the current low rates. Highly recommended and already have friends signed up on my recommendation. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017
