How to Fix Broken Monzo Excel Statement Rows

🔴 The Problem: Monzo PDF to Excel Creates Broken Rows

If you've ever tried to convert a Monzo bank statement PDF to Excel using a free online converter, you know the frustration. The converted spreadsheet looks nothing like the original PDF. Rows are split, descriptions are scattered across multiple cells, and the data is unusable for accounting.

The specific issue with Monzo statements is: Pot transactions creating duplicate rows, IFTTT integration descriptions, category tags

This happens because Monzo's PDF format uses variable-length description fields that can wrap across multiple lines. Generic PDF converters treat each line as a separate row, completely breaking the transaction structure.
