Turned down for a new bank account.

If you want spending to be transparent, then like mes and BoPsie, we has only one current account that HAS OUR MONEY paid into it, and we make joint investments from and pay our mortgage.
No hidden cash, and we use money to maximise our money as well.
The optimum word here is OUR!
Thats what BoPsie has you believe but secretly she has a stash of money she spends on a secret hobby.1 -
colsten said:I don't know the details about the MSE money makeover but you aren't limited to one bank, and in fact, it's a good idea to have a second (or third etc) account at a completely different bank. You could, for example, try Halifax or Starling or Virgin, or if piggy banking is important to you, a TSB Spend and Save account.0
