Green line photo verification doesn't work. As such unable to verify or access my account. Called up for help. Spoke to a reluctant individual assuming I'm doing something wrong and keep trying. I can assure you, in not. Not so impressed. Google 6 Pro - 18/10/22 - A work around suggested by Tide to download a 3rd party app that can manipulate the screen rotation. It worked - Complicated and a potential security risk, depending on the permissions of the version you download. I standby my rating

Absolute trash. Continually blocking me from opening the app due to some "screenshot safety" issue. Can't access in a browser. after the most recent block on my device I've had to clear cache etc. and I'm now stuck being reverified with photo proof after being a customer for over 2 years because the system doesn't understand the difference from cleared data and new customer. So now I can't access my account to pay an invoice. Changing provider ASAP. Avoid if you want to actually access funds.

A good banking service for a reasonable price, but the app has a few weaknesses. Firstly it doesn't display a running balance. I raised this as a support ticket but had to explain what a running balance is! Trying to work out where a missing or duplicate transaction is in a separate bank feed is a nightmare without it. Also THE APP ON THE PHONE (not web version) seems to require Chrome to be set as the default browser in Android. This is annoying as I want Firefox as my default browser.
