Natwest's MIMO Personal Finance Assisstant

NatWest reveals Mimo

What are everyone’s thoughts on this?

I think it might be a little bit “buzz wordy” but the idea should be something we expect from the challenger banks, not Natwest. Whilst the backend may rely on open banking etc, it seems like it’s a much better offering than Monzo’s energy comparison service

Meanwhile, they still require you to use a card reader device to set up new Standing Orders :roll_eyes:

Only just heard about this today, any screenshots about? Interested to see this.

p.s What happened to Bó?

Bó is still in private beta. I still get random emails explaining it.

If a multi billion pound company like Apple can’t make Siri smart, I highly doubt Natwest can make this thing smart within the constraints of financial legislation, stricter privacy laws coming in, and the fact that their online banking still looks so bloody… poop.
