Larger Type SettingAccessibility groupBrowser zoom breaks the payments layout past about 150%, which is where several of our older customers sit. They end up ringing the branch instead.Carmen Ruiz Planned, and we are treating it as a layout fault rather than a preference: a page that breaks at 150% zoom is a page that has assumed everyone reads at the same size.

Halden OnlineRound Up SavingsProduct teamEvery challenger bank does this and it is the single most common thing our customers ask for in branch. Round each card payment to the nearest pound and move the difference into a savings pot.Carmen Ruiz Planned for the summer. Two things worth agreeing before we build rather than after. Rounding up has to stop on its own if the current account would go below an amount the customer sets, otherwise you are charging overdraft interest to help somebody save, which is the sort of thing that ends up in a newspaper. And the pot needs to be withdrawable instantly and without penalty, or it is not really theirs. Both are in the spec. Tell us if your product team wants either drawn differently.
