    Looking for clarification on this please;

    If I have both Euro US Dollars in my Revolut account, when I use the card in the US will the transaction be debited from the US or the Euro account?

    Dollar account first, then Euro account, I think. Providing there's enough money in either account to make the transaction. Revolut won't make deductions from both accounts, you need enough in one of the accounts for the transaction to be made.
    Easiest thing is to just leave it all in Euro, and let Revolut do the currency exchange, with the added benefit of then knowing the euro equivalent of each transaction from the Revolut app.

    If you have any issues with declined transactions at the till, ask them to process it as a credit card.
    You will get a pin option then and the transaction will go through. Some shops only allow sign for debit and it can fail.
