Easy to use and intuitive, this app makes managing my money easy

I love notifications of money in and out of the account. I love the simple screens and breakdowns of where I have spent my money and how easy it is to categorise each transaction. I love the ease at which I move money in and out of spaces and was surprised how easy it is to save with just rounding up to the nearest £ on every transaction. I have saved £20 in a month with no effort at all. It is also nice to know you can pick up the phone and call someone if there is ever a problem. Happy all round! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
