What do personal finance experts think of Onedox?
We asked some personal finance bloggers to sign up for Onedox, test it out and write about their experiences of the service. Here is what they said:
With real-time information and email alerts when there has been activity on your accounts, Onedox is almost like having your own personal assistant — all for free!
After playing around with Onedox for a while I really believe it’s an extremely useful service to keep on top of your bills, especially if you tend to not be the most organised.
Not only is it free to use but it comes with the added bonus that it’ll work out out and highlight bills where you could be saving money, I would definitely recommend giving it a go.— SkintDad
I like how it also thinks for you (because if you’re like me, I forget everything), so if something important is coming up (like you need to renew your MOT, it will send you an email reminding you to do it. If your accounts generate any new documents, you’ll be emailed with the details that same day. It’s so simple, but just life-changing when it comes to sorting your your financial life.
Oh and yeah — it’s free. I genuinely would recommend this! — Lottie Burns
I’ve tried quite a few budgeting tools out during my time a personal finance blogger and this one offers something unique.
In addition to your household bills, you can also link up your car. Onedox will check that your car is taxed and MOT’d and give you the date of expiry for each! As someone who has been known to drive around without tax for a few months because of being forgetful, this is super useful! — Disease Called Debt
Want one tool to give you an overview of your spending, important renewal dates and cheaper tariffs? For your gas, electric, internet, TV, landline and mobile phone bills, Onedox could be the answer.
I started using Onedox recently, and was immediately impressed that it knew when my MOT was going to run out and also my road tax. I was also chuffed to learn that my EE contract is coming to the end of its minimum term in a few weeks, and I should be looking for a cheaper tariff with my existing provider at least. — Mrs Bargain Hunter
One of my biggest concerns when it comes to using apps is whether or not my details will be safe. Thankfully, there are several measures in place to protect your data on the Ondox app.
The app is fairly straightforward and easy to use. Shortly after signing up and connecting your accounts to the app, you’ll be able to get stuck in and start saving money. — Can’t Swing A Cat
Can you place your hands on your most recent energy bill easily? I certainly can’t. Having all your bills in one place means that you can locate them easily when you need to, for whatever reason. — From Aldi to Harrods (no link)
