Well thought through with appropriate safety measures. I particularly like the simplicity of the video id in case I forget my login and the categorisation of spending. Never had a problem.
No response re application for a business account

From the app I applied for an additional business account. Apparently, the application was cancelled without any explanation.
Banking at its best!

Simple setup, amazing app, great design, super efficient, customer friendly. Love it!
When you set up a Under 16s Space, your child gets their own debit card. They’ll get notifications when they spend money, and they can use the Under 16s app to check their spending and view their balance. You always stay in control, as their Under 16s Space is linked to your account. To set up a Under 16s Space, go to ‘Spaces’.
