On the topic of statements.
Can whatever makes this happen also be fixed!?
This also upsets me dearly

It’s only been years people have been asking for these things to be resolved

I can see why to be honest. Makes me wonder if Monzo have a list of all these things somewhere internally. Low hanging fruit, ideal starter projects for graduates etc…
Do they still do the whole Monzo Time thing where people/teams are free to work on whatever they want for a bit?
Hoovering up all the 95%-finished features like this would be a fun project.

Yeah that too, but from memory Monzo Time was what the developer wanted to do. We used to do something similar at a previous company, allow the developers time to flex their creativity, and we once suggested they tackle these little things and got a lot of push back.
Unbelievable that this is still an issue.
It’s not really.
It’s hardly going to be a priority, is it? The main aim for Monzo has been to get users, and now the main aim is to generate a more robust income stream (Plus), so these small outliers that are annoying to a few people are never going to be a priority.
I find it very believable.

An update… The Monzo iOS app now generates statement PDFs that are A4 size
At first I was 
And this is definitely an improvement. But…
The contents of the file are still clearly not formatted for A4 
I know it’s a small thing, but the result is that there are huge margins at the bottom of each page, so you end up with more pages than necessary and a lot of white space. The side margins are also quite a bit bigger than they need to be, but this doesn’t effect the amount of information on the page in the same way:
I know that statements are very ‘legacy’, but I wish Monzo would put a bit of care into making them look like they’re not a hack.
Edit: To add insult to injury, you also get lines that are cut off halfway down because the page breaks aren’t inserted cleanly between rows. So a chopped line and then a huge bottom margin 
It’s happening, at least, slowly but surely.
