They just do stuff that you need a bank to do, and none of the clutter

It's the little things, like reminders of upcoming DD's (esp. if you don't have quite enough in the account!), instant notification/confirmation of a payment (so if your card is cloned you know immediately), and easy integration with other providers, such as Plum and Xero. Just excellent banking! Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

BEST BANK EVER!

Literally so in love with this bank, I don’t have to worry about anything and if I do have an problem then I know I can count on the customer service, they are so reliable and friendly and helpful!
