    I recently switched to FUTO keyboard and I like it, but I just discovered First Direct doesn't. Their app refuses to start if FUTO is the default keyboard, with an explicit access denied screen that lists FUTO. My bank choice and/or my Android install may not survive this encounter.

    is a really useful and informative error that is thrown by my and Mastercard (begins with number 5) online payment attempt on the website but an payment card (also starting with 5) works fine. Bravo N26 which, as I have said as often as I can, utterly rocks.

    #FirstDirect bank are usually quick on the phone if one has a problem but today they weren't and the phone message advised me to use 'message us' on the website. But the button isn't where it should be. So eventually I got through on the phone to the 'tech team' and was told it's because my browser has an ad blocker. I can't believe the messaging system relies on adverts to function so is this just a way to allow their multitude of 'partners' to spam me with adverts? #enshittification #adverts

    I have banked with #FirstDirect for thirty years.
    Today I have ditched them and switched all my accounts to #Monzo.

    Because fuck you First Direct, for being so hung up on titles and making it SO difficult to change that.

    My account is Miss IFR and they’ve knocked back a cheque made out to Mrs IFR. Monzo didn’t even ask for a title.

    When trying to perform a bank transfer on the website of using , the confirmation page just disappears if one navigates away to another tab or window e.g. to check some info before confirming. When navigating back to the firstDirect bank site in Safari (with browser closed initially) you enter automatically back into the open bank account page in a logged on state - no fresh login. This seems to be ultra strange: why kill the tab and then have it open automatically?

    Why does not allow people with addresses outside the UK to have a card?
