Welcome!

Awesome stuff! What feature are you most looking forward to using on Monzo? :mondo:

Well I quite like the pots feature. So you can save into different pots and set scheduled payments which makes saving alot easier!

Hey all, my name is Lewis - I’m a senior front-end developer currently based in Bath but originally from around the London area. I’ve been building sites/apps for over 10 years, building redesigns for some larger eCommerce brands in the UK such as Whittard, Teapigs, Route One etc. More recently I’ve been working with a smaller team on a few exciting projects to do with news curation and project management. In the past I ran a series of conferences called Tomorrow’s Web in London.

I’ve been a Monzo user since the Alpha and am over the moon to have them as my main bank - so I thought it’d be a good time to properly say hello! I love browsing these forums for all the great ideas you all come up with. My partner’s CASS is finishing today and I can’t wait to have her be #fullMonzo!

In my spare time I love to travel, visit National Trust properties and am currently enjoying renovating our flat. I am definitely an old soul in a young person’s body!

Looking forward to speaking with you all more.

Welcome @anon36341982 :wave: ,

Great to hear about your story, Bath is such a lovely place to live

What’s your favorite National Trust location you’ve visited so far?

Glad to hear both you and your partner are enjoying the Monzo experience :mondo:

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Yeah, we’ve very lucky to live in such a lovely place! I’ve been here about 7 years now, Rosie about 4.

My favourite at the moment is Polesden Lacey - that gold saloon is simply breathtaking!

Hi there. I’m fairly new to the Monzo app and am still learning what it can do. So far I am loving it! I work as a teaching assistant for children with special educational needs. In my spare time I love to do a variety of crafts from digital art to pyrography! I also keep pet chickens, which takes a lot of effort. By participating in this forum I hope to learn lots more about Monzo bank and what it can do, or will do in the future!

Hi Richard
I have high hopes on using Monzo. I was introduced by my teenager daughter to Monzo. Last summer when we were on holiday and we had a massive road trip to Italy. My daughter was raving about Monzo and how the waitlist was very long. I quietly tried to go online to find out all about Monzo and got myself an account. I am one of those people who were brought out not to talk about money because my father was an artist so money always = vulgarity. What a pity that was. All my life I cannot have an healthy relationship about money. Money always equals to stress. I run my own business and after bouts of bad luck my business is going in the right direction and I am determined to have a healthy happy relationship with money and a healthy respect for myself so I can charge correctly for my service. So sorry for such a long boring first communication. I hope this is going to be a turning point and that I will learn how to not get stressed about money now that I am with Monzo!
