Far more valuable to me than the bank…

Far more valuable to me than the bank is - Money hub is actually useful!I started using Moneyhub back in 2017 as I wanted to get a better view of my finances when my wife stopped work (post our 2nd child). I knew I needed to be a bit more on top of it than I was and I needed this to be easy....enter Moneyhub. Initially I was merely using it to get insight into what I was spending and where, being able to connect all my payment types (Amex, Santander several other banks/credit cards) was invaluable. I could then also categorize what I was spending where. This immediately bought to my attention that I was spending over 100 pounds a month on coffee whilst at work....yikes, thats more than 1200 a year and thats a holiday! So that had to stop....and the insight I can get into what I am spending has continued, fantastic solution.Post this I was able to connect various other elements of my financial life from Share ISA's and fund management companies etc to give me a pretty much complete picture of my financial world without have to laboriously keep it update on a spreadsheet (my previous approach). A single view for all of these has been invaluable and saved me a lot of time.A great tool if you want to manage your finances, get real clarity on what they look like in real time and save yourself time and effort in doing so.Great job Moneyhub - currently in my Top 5 most important apps and way more important to me than my banking relationship which really just stores my money (securely in fairness) but adds little value beyond this.
