I imagine they are moving away from pre-paid cards, and towards full accounts. The pre-paid cards were just there to get them off the ground, and isn't their main focus anymore.

They recently released a savings "pot" (how they split up money) with interest (1%, provided by another company). Which is a step towards offerings of other banks, and in my book is a step towards user satisfaction.

Moved away - they shut down all the pre-paid cards earlier this year
