Modern, Simple Banking

5
Banking like this through a smartphone app has to be the future. So straightforward and instant. Reviewed on: 31st July 2022

Great App

5
Very little cannot be accomplished using the app. I have a current account, which allows money to be fenced off in different pots for different uses. Makes keeping track on outgoings easy. Reviewed on: 20th July 2022

Powerful Challenger Bank

5
They offer an outstandingly nimble and able app based banking system - high quality service and actually voluntarily joined industry elements that others haven't - things that protect the consumer and enhance respect and consideration of their customers. Cards look nice, customer service is easy to obtain access to and they have basic lending and no fees while all else is at fair levels otherwise Reviewed on: 25th June 2022
