Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Brilliant service, incredible customer service

The service is great, it allows for money to be organised into spaces, which I find very useful and isn't a feature I've seen from any other bank. The few times I've had issues, it's been very easy to get them resolved through the chat feature in the app, with responses within 5 minutes. Reviewed on: 1st April 2022
