Colour options for homepage
Colour options for bank accounts & credit cards so they are easily identifiable. i.e my client uses different banks with different feeds, would be great to have some colours.

Ironically this was one of the things the balance history chart (which was removed from the account widgets) helped to identify.
Previously, all credit cards had a red/negative chart identifying negative balances; current accounts without overdrafts were always showing a blue/positive chart. When they were fixed/placed in separate columns it was very easy to know what was where (even if a bank account went negative, bank accounts always in column 1, and credit cards always in column 2 - can't do that now, they move around, especially if you have more than 10 bank accounts or so, they need to flow left-to-right at the bottom and you can have 3 or 4 columns to fill on large/wide screens).
With the removal of the charts on the account widgets, they all now look the same.
It's made even worse with the removal of the brackets around negative numbers, at a quick glance the negative symbol in front of a number is so easily overlooked. There's a reason accountants have used brackets for negative numbers for years. Why some product designer decided that years of accounting standards should be ignored (within an accounting product) is really beyond me.
