Yes,
Its a basic service for the "niche" people who like to look after their accounts offline.......
Why should i pay for a tool to this,
Why should i spend 20 mins doing it myself.
Why would i even upload my bank statement for a free online convertor
When AMEX, HSBC all do this as part of the service that does it all from scratch.

They did introduce foreign ATM fees after promising not too. Also introduced a business account after saying they wouldn't then quickly trying to get one launched after Starling did. It's also had a couple of false starts with things (paid accounts) which it then cancelled. One of two other things about them too which means I don't trust them. Afterall Tom Blomfield used to work at Starling.
Ever since they released that major update for their app a while back I haven't logged into the website again. Everything I ever need is on the app and is accessible via a fingerprint. I'm still contemplating a full switch over to Starling but I do like keeping my funds separate for when I go abroad.

Yea it's a swings and roundabouts. The truth is, if I used Starling, I'd have to run another current account to pay my bills from. With Monzo I have moved fully over, it's just not feasible with Starling. I do like Starling, it's just not compatible with how I split my daily spending and my bills.
Is there a view in the Android Starling app that shows me my account balance at a point in time, like after a transaction? Difficult to explain but other banks I have used would usually show two columns in a transaction, one showing the transation amount and then one showing the balance total after that transaction. I had a need to see some account history recently and this was needed but I couldn't quite seem to get it. If you can understand what I am saying, help!

Anyone using N26?
I'm curious what country code the cards are issued with. If they come with a German code that could be very handy for some more german oriented online products and services

I know what you mean, I don't think it has that facility.
Soldato
How do you find country codes? What is Monzo? Surely be UK?
Soldato
Normally merchants can find the country of origin when checking the first 6 digits of a CC or Debit card.
Some services use this to lock you out.
The more I use Monzo the more I am tempted to switch fully from First Direct. I have no issues with FD, they’re an excellent bank. But Monzo seem to do things a little better. I also like the bills pot idea. My day to day spending is still on my BA Amex which I pay off in full every month.

Pretty sure I'll be hitting the button to move in the next day or so.

Are they still closing shop in the UK?

.... and it's done.
Just need to remember to update places such as PayPal, Audible, Amazon etc where my card details are saved.
/edit - Stuff like this makes me smile and think 'yup, this was the right thing to do'.

That's where a curve card comes in handy as it abstracts away your actual banking cards plus you earn curve cashback where it's offered; that's in addition to any cashback on the underlying cards
