Banking but brilliant

5
A current account built around today’s needs. Remarkably quick to open, delivery of debit card in 48/72 hours of opening. No foreign transaction fees. Simple in app chat for any issues. Simple, agile and responsive. Innovative features being added each month like round ups and setting of overdraft limits by the user. Unlike anything I have ever experienced in a banking environment. In one word. Gamechanger. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Mobile but personal
