I was very surprised when I gave them a go after hearing good stuff about them here and on other techy parts of the internet:

After using their website and their app for a few hours I pretty much immediately decided to not proceed with them as the software was clearly not built by a team that has great competency in software development. This was a year ago so they've had plenty of time to polish it.
