I don't like it here anymore. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Issues with @monzo: - The "confirming your identity" screen hangs - Support chat is not responding - Call to customer service was disconnected after 30 minutes without any answer. What's going on @monzo? Seriously considering changing banks at this point.
