Breath of fresh air

I have struggled with my local back, their appalling app and questionable security but thought that opening a new account with a relatively new bank would be a nightmare. Eventually I girded my loins and took that first step and what do you know? It was pretty painless and I've had no real problems to speak of. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023
