Plum/snoops and other money saving apps

Does anyone use these?

I keep getting adverts on Facebook promoting them, but I’m weary as it’s asking for banking details (obviously).

Does anyone use any, and could you recommend one?

They seem a good idea but using them breaches the terms of your bank account so if you get wiped out, you’re on your own.

Does it?

I’ll avoid them then. Thank you.

I use Snoop and have saved about £600 this year. It lets you see all your bank/investment accounts in one place and works out your bills to help you budget. It’s a genuinely clever little app. They don’t breach the terms of your bank account. If it did banks simply wouldn’t allow them access. You can’t make payments or switch money into different accounts via the app, so I don’t see how it would even be possible.

I have plum. Great app for saving so worth exploring. It has saved me thousands.
I have to go to my bank account and give the app access every 90 days, so no terms breached.

I use plum too. I find it a great way to save without any effort on my part. Quick and easy to get your money out too

Plus also has settings so you can control how actively you want it to save
