I have recently opened an account. Joining instructions were simple and easy to follow. The whole process was completed from the warmth and comfort of my home while it poured with rain outside. So fast, so simple and a delight to navigate the app. Can’t wait to start travelling with it. Very customer focused, which feels like something new these days!! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
