Being new to business and self employment, I really feel like I couldn’t have chosen better so it was a natural next step to then open a personal account. The app and online access is brilliant and whenever I’ve needed support it’s been swift and exactly what I’ve needed. Reviewed on: 25th March 2022

Great Banking App

I've been really grateful for this banking solution. I chose it because it is fast, easy to use and suits what I need it for. Present time banking lets you know immediately when you've spent something on your card, you can lock/unlock it, you can pay bills from it separately from your overall income and you can pay cheques in just by taking a picture of the cheque! So convenient. I only gave it 4 out of 5 because of two things. it's not my main bank so I couldn't as I haven't made the full leap yet and when my phone died, I couldn't access my account to check the balance but when I spoke to an advisor they were very helpful (I was waiting for my pin to arrive so couldn't use my card to check).
