👋 @winklevos My recommendation would be: include the bank name in the account name. For example: [KBC] Main Acount or Revolut: savings.

IMO the added complexity of running and maintaining another layer of accounts far outweighs the benefit we would gain here.

Which is why I'm sadly going to close this.

I think that may be used for redirecting transactions on closed accounts? I did not read very carefully

Might also be related to bank-sync.
