Monzo the marketing website for the bank, uses Cloudflare.
If you go through the DNS logs for the Monzo app, you'll see everything else goes direct... Google, Facebook, Status Page, AWS.
With the only exception being some image assets:

There are still plenty of customer-data-carrying things which do go over cloudflare - e.g. the internet banking, the public API, in-app webviews, etc
