Review of the Chase Bank, Current account:

View on product page

Flexible, trustworthy for everyday finances

I initially wanted a Chase current account for the debit card that I could use fee free while travelling. It was swift and secure to set up (I have a weird address that they were careful about me proving), and the numberless physical card is a welcome safety feature. Works great in my Apple Wallet too, and push notifications are extremely useful for tracking my spending. The Chase current account is the one I use for everyday spending as they offer 1% cashback for the first year and having had it for for 6 months now, I have no complaints and would recommend it to others.

Review of the Nutmeg, Investments:

A good platform for first time investors

Like a lot of people during the pandemic, I resolved to better manage my money at the beginning of 2021. Nutmeg seemed to have the best reviews at the time and so I set up an account for my first stocks and shares ISA. I also set up a LISA and moved my savings accounts to two other separate providers at the same time, and Nutmeg by far was the most efficient and assuring of the three. I transferred part of an old ISA over from Barclays with no hassle, and the support that I got through the chat function was excellent and I never felt like I was being talked down to, even when I asked some questions that, in hindsight, were quite naive. I prefer to use the dashboard on a laptop (as opposed to downloading another app to my phone), and it is easy to navigate and clear in presenting the journey my investments are taking. I also very much like the regular updates as to what has been happening to global markets - especially when a month has been particularly volatile - and the transparency with which I can see exactly where my money has been invested in the investor reports. My experiences with Nutmeg in the past year have made me much more confident as an investor and I have gladly recommended the platform to friends who are also looking to whip their money into shape.
