“I was fed up with my old bank. My mum actually went 'full Monzo' before me! She told me about the benefits, and some of the features like Get Paid Early. I didn't realise how easy it was to switch.

"With Monzo, I can see what I’m spending constantly. I save better, and I don’t have to queue at a bank branch to speak to someone about my money. I can do my banking while I’m sat on the train! The old version of banking is obsolete."
