Tide bank frozen

[elaine@cheapaccounting]

Yea that's probably fair, but in my case I was trying to pay for an ad campaign and some software subscriptions with my Tide 'card' and despite having money in the account it was linked to, they were rejected because they're 'pre-pay'. Aside from that I've not had any other issue, like the app but this was a deal breaker so switched to Natwest.

Well with NatWest you get FreeAgent free which is a great accounting system (I use it for my accounts!).

Shout if you need help getting that set up It’ll make your accounting a doodle

I've had nothing but trouble with Tide, all great initially but when I tried to pay for some services I was getting messages saying the type of card wasn't accepted - some places it was showing it as a pre-paid card.
I ended up switching to a Natwest account - no issues and I got freeagent for free.

This! I couldn't even use the card to pay my Google Workspace subscription with Tide... or facebook ads, reddit ads, Ticktok promo... the card was refused everywhere . I get that it's basically a pre-paid card, but why don't they clearly tell you that before you sign-up?

Because they want your money!
