You read the reviews, watch the adverts and think nothing more about it until a moment comes, and you have to make a change. Glad that I did make the change, as one of the best one's that I've ever done. Superb, superb, superb Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Revolutionised the way I see money

Having that joint account experience of us both spending simultaneously often brought confusion and overdrafts. Not anymore. Instant notifications showing us where the money has gone. The categorisation of the spend is fabulous and really make me think how and where to spend. Great experience so far! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Perfect way to bank

As a senior branch manager of a competitor back I was eager to look at the new banking proposition. The app itself is awesome and the account opening journey flawless. Physical card arrived in 2 working days and activation was simple. The free overseas withdrawals is perfect in our current environment. I have already recommended this bank.
