What bank would you get your next bank account from? We want a joint one, ideally one that has budgeting or pots!

I have Monzo and really rate them, we have a joint account and use the pots to put bits and bobs in.

TSB Spend & Save?

Starling. They have been fab

Love Starling.
I have lots of pots, and it's so quick that my Starling app pings to let me know a payment has gone through before it even registers at the till.
Customer service fab too.

Yes Monzo, it’s brilliant! You can set up different pots and pay money into or pay bills from these pots. You can also categorise each transaction e.g. gifts/bills/personal care/eating out etc and it will show you how much you’re spending on each. I think you can set up budget amounts for each too.

Ooh yes I love that about Monzo too. You can easily see what’s coming out your account. You can also freeze it from your phone if you lose it too.

We moved our joint current account to Starling a few months ago, and it is brilliant. So easy to set up as well
