Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Amazing online bank for budgeting needs and internationl spending

Very easy and simple to open an account and retrieve password if forgotten. Makes budgeting and saving a breeze. Immediate notifications on spending and no foreign transaction fee abroad. Use it more than my standard bank account so in a way has become my main bank account. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
