Super efficient bank app!

Really enjoying the banking experience with this app based bank, everything is so seamless, transactions happen swiftly, the notifications are instant too and the current account interest (3.25%) is a nice earner...The 'spaces' area of the app allows you to separate your money from your everyday spending so it makes budgeting easier - No accidental overspending! So far so good! Reviewed on: 20th March 2024
