To be honest they lost me at the name.

Won’t be giving any of my financial info over to an app named Snoop

26

Someone said the same for Emma. :sweat_smile:

27

Haha. For me Snoop sounds too much like ‘Snooping around’. I like the name Emma

MoneySavingExpert have just released an app with a feature (MyMSE) which seems kind of Snoopish. I wonder if I’ll receive a Snoop telling me about it!

32

I have linked my bank account, but I can’t see anything.

33

I can see suggested articles in the mymse section, but no idea if it’s actually based on my connected accounts.

The regular payments finder (tools section) finds some of my regular payments, but not all. Doesn’t seem able to find any regular payments from my Monzo account.

34

I linked the account and it didn’t show anything :sweat_smile:

Looks like they got bought by Vanquis: Vanquis Banking Group acquires Dame Gadhia's fintech app Snoop

I don’t understand how this is a logical acquisition, I mean as a creditor purchasing an aggregator, surely it’ll be bias, I doubt it will continue to recommend saving money with competitors, even with affiliate commission.

41

They will (eventually) shut down :slight_smile:

By the way, Snoop has started selling your data: https://www.finextra.com/pressarticle/98153/snoop-and-starcount-to-launch-spendmapper.

The product is here: Understand real consumer spending behaviour | SpendMapper

Requested to delete my snoop account after reading that, can we get a news feed like system to fill the void?

44

What’s this? :sweat_smile:

When you access ‘Snoops,’ you receive a feed of posts generated based on your data. For instance, if you spent £50 at Tesco, you might see a message like, ‘Did you remember to use your Clubcard? You could have earned *** points.’ You might also receive bespoke content such as, ‘Next time, here’s a voucher for **, which expires on ***,’ all tailored based on the user’s spending data.
