Why didn't I do it sooner?

Moved from one of the high street banks on the account switiching service, really slick and no problems. Have contacted customer service for an issue, which was resolved per my expectations. The App allows you to check the spend by categories, though could do with more options. Managed to pay in cheques without an issue. Think that the only improvements would be for Marketplace and a linked savings account for spaces. Reviewed on: 24th February 2021
