Easiest banking yet

5
The app is probably the best banking app I've ever used. It's so easy to pay, transfer and get updates. I've also got my wife into the bank. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

My perfect bank account

5
So easy to set up this account. I got it because I was going to Australia at Christmas and it offers no transaction fees when you use your account to make purchases abroad. It keeps track of what you are spending your money on. You can lock your card so no one can access it and it pays interest. I am off to Majorca and Turkey this year and have already started saving specifically in the goals part of the app. Perfect banking. I love it. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
