Spaces feature is an excellent idea.

I use the Spaces feature by transferring money into them so that a direct debit is never missed. Reviewed on: 28th February 2025

Felt pressured to change to on line banking system

I felt under pressure from my current bank to change to their on line banking system I am OAP I don’t like changes I was panicking I felt backed into a corner. My daughter calmed me down she had recently started on line banking so easy she said a child could do it she coaxed me and I reluctantly agreed. I have never looked back a few hiccups to start which were professionally and easily explained all round great experience I should have done it long ago. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025
