    My elderly MiL uses Santander, she needs help every time she logs on to the app. I still can't find a log off button. We are thinking of getting her to switch somewhere else..

    I can help with the log off button! Three lines in the top right-hand corner, then scroll right down to the bottom 👍

    My opinion of the app has marginally improved since it stopped logging me out repeatedly (but it's OK, because I have a pic of Stonehenge at night in the background 🙄), but I still think it's awful. Even basic things like transferring money between accounts it doesn't always show that the balances have changed until I refresh the screen

    Why do survey sites have questions asking what level of input you provide into making business decisions, without specifying what those decisions might be about 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️? I'm involved in some, but by no means all 🤷‍♀️!

    For the same reason they ask what area of the business you work in when you’ve just stated you’re a sole trader! 🤷🏼‍♀️
