You probably don’t need to be checking your account every single day, but make it a regular thing to keep tabs. Keep an eye on spending and your balance.
With some banks you can set up alerts to see whenever you spend and keep a track on your habits.
Staying on top of your bank account will help you catch any issues early and maintain control over your finances.
Most banks will offer tools to help you manage your money effectively. Some might include things like debt repayment trackers, or budgeting tools. Others like Monzo will help you put a specific limit on different types of spending to stop you overspending.
Browse your banks app and website to learn more about the tools and resources available. And make the most of what’s on offer.
If you’re putting money aside you’ll want to make sure you’re getting the most interest possible. So explore different ISA’s, savings pots, bonds and everything your bank has to offer. Compare interest rates to see what works best for you.
You might find the best day-to-day bank for you doesn’t offer the best savings rates, so don’t be afraid to open a savings account/ ISA with another provider. You don’t need to keep everything with one bank.

Monitoring accounts is very important. I do try to do this regularly after seeing payments coming out of my account for phone payments that I hadn’t authorised a few years back.
