How long does it usually take for physical revolut card to arrive? Does it get shipped from the UK?
Me and my partner ordered ours on the night 27th of January which is the weekend. And was giving an expected date to be here for last Friday the 3rd. I can't track it either.
If I select GBP on the app I get UK IBAN/Sort Code etc, anyone confirm if this account will work for a SWIFT transfer (GBP payment)?
Yeah I used this for payment from GB accounts
Thanks. Any idea if the Visa Debit card will access the GBP account if I was to spend it?
Will revolut Irish iban have 22 digits?
I would speculate yes, 8-digit account number with sort code 990360 so somewhere along IEXXREVO99036012345678.
It will if you make a sterling transaction
Is it just me or is getting warnings about "potential fraud" when trying to make transfers to a bank account out of hand?
I used to get these once in a while but now I'm getting them regularly, on payments to Bunq and others.
I have to sit through the whole video about how fraudsters behave, then confirm I really want to make the transfer, choose a reason, see another custom video and finaly can confirm that I am sure I want to make the transfer.
Is this just me or is anybody else also having this?
I could be wrong but I think it pays in GBP if you have the funds there. If not it goes out of your Euro account with a charge for exchange to GBP.
Yep. Was transferring from revolut to a bank account in my name, that I've transferred to several times before and had to answer several questions about knowing what a fraud is.
I did two transfers to two accounts at the same time. The "potential fraud" took about 30 mins longer for me to get the note to say it was being transferred so they probably did some back end check too.
Has anyone on here successfully rented a car in the USA with a revolut card?
Kind of. We used a debit card for the imprint but paid with revolut (pre-paid rate).
Nearly 5 years ago now so might not too helpful
Seeing that revolut changed to a “bank” Is Revolut still a prepaid debit card or a debit card?
The last physical card I got was a Visa Debit Infinite card.
The last online only card I got was an Irish Mastercard World Debit.
So depending on what card you get you might have different levels but they should now all be Debit.
And no one of those give you any Infinite or World benefits, it has no consumer facing advantage, in fact it has disadvantages as some retailers have the right to refuse premium brand cards outside the EU due to the way higher cost.
Interesting. We couldn't get either Revolut or Wise (both Visa Infinite cards) to work in a few places in Seattle that all shared the same type of till. Space needle, Chillily Gardens, Mpop museum all rejected the card - all using same type of till. One of the cashiers said something about refusing some types of cards because of the transaction fees but I couldn't figure out what he meant since they were Visa and my AIB visa worked......that probably explains it.
Yes the cashier was right, the cost to accept premium cards in the US is significantly higher than standard cards and so some businesses refuse to accept them.
Joint Accounts are on the way, invitations to join the waitlist are getting displayed in app.
yes got the invite to join the waiting list, myself and my partner use group vaults for bills etc so this could prove very handy
Got this, have signed up
My wife, who barely uses Revolut, got the invite to join the beta waitlist. Nothing on my app even though I used to use it as my main account and still use it regularly.
Looks like Revolut is having a bad morning, all my card payments failed due to "Our security System flagged this transactions as suspicious and declined it to keep your money safe."
Seams they have problems https://www.revolut.com/en-IE/system-status/ with card payments and transfers.
I noticed this issue trying to use my card this morning.
Revolut claims all back to normal!
A transaction I just made worked fine.
I love Revolut but I won't rely on one payment method. I have 4 bank accounts with cash so there's so single point of failure.
Is anyone else getting the "We need some info" message EVERY time they log in the past few days? I've submitted that poxy info about 17 times at this stage.
I had that problem, had to call up. I've an identical twin brother, and I think we broke their facial recognition. 😁
And giving how now for the last 90 minutes SEPA transfers don't work again, it's clear they have a bad day.
But yes, never rely on only one provider, always have a backup.
Not every time but I did get that message the other day
Finally, their credit card is coming to Ireland.
Always tough to crack the credit card market here for switchers given how the government tax works. I'll be looking to ditch my BOI card for one of these anyway.
Needs openbanking just like Loans, so I wonder what PTSB customers are going to do giving how many PTSB customers have the problem that the salary is not showing correctly in Revolut.
