Chase £7.07
MTD £16.32
Side note - with Chase the auto round up function transfers into a savings account that is 5% AER. Having read on HotDealsUK, I have set up an daily auto top up to Amazon for £1.01 and therefore £0.99 goes into this high interest savings account on a daily basis.2021

I've been getting into the groove of Tillying and it's getting easier to be consistent, even with the little amounts as they all add up.
Today = £5.47
MTD = £67.47
YTD = £174.76/£300 (56.90%)
@GingerWarrior is Chase a good bank and easy enough to navigate? I have Monzo and have round ups, but there's no interest earned and I have various pots for savings. How does a daily auto top up work with Chase? Is that like a faster payment? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to see if it's worth using Chase as my spending account as I wouldn't leave Monzo as it's my main current account. Thanks, x.
