Banking Without Borders
Banking Without Borders is a podcast about modern money — from digital banks and cashback cards to savings, credit cards, FX, global accounts, and the financial products reshaping how people manage money in the UK and beyond.
We focus less on hype and more on what actually matters: who a product is for, how it makes money, where the trade-offs are, and whether it’s genuinely worth using.
If you want clear thinking, real-world context, and fewer buzzwords and less BS when it comes to banking, cards, and personal finance, this is the podcast.

Monzo Max vs Revolut Metal: Which Premium Bank Account Is Right For You?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we put Monzo Max and Revolut Metal head to head to help you figure out which one — if either — is actually worth paying for every month.
- The travel insurance small print that could leave you entirely uninsured on holiday — and which account has a hidden 75% payment rule most people don't know about
- How the phone insurance, RAC breakdown cover, rewards programmes and subscription bundles actually compare when you read the policy documents
- The FX fees, savings rates, ATM limits and money transfer costs that matter for everyday banking
- Which account wins for families, frequent travellers, and people who just want simplicity
- Our honest personal verdict on whether a premium bank account is worth it at all — or whether the free tier does the job just as well
