Anytime I've needed to give an address I've just used the Irish one and it worked
Just tried a transfer to the Irish IBAN, normally takes a day for me so let's see if it takes longer
I think for the first transfer to a new IBAN it often takes longer anyway as your bank might flag it for extra verification
The Lithuanian IBAN is still active for 2 months after getting the Irish one, but it will be removed after that. So short answer, no going back
Trying to transfer money from another account in another bank and they need to know the address for the bank in order to complete the transfer. Revolut app only shows me an address in UK and the Lithuanian address. I already have the Irish IBAN so wouldn't the bank address need to be in Ireland? Is it this one?
Revolut Bank UAB (Irish Branch), 2 Dublin Landings, 1 North Dock, Dublin 1, Ireland
I don't really feel like contacting their customer service for this. Previously I've used the Lithuanian IBAN and address but not sure if it still works.
EDIT: Tried to make a transfer with those details and the new IBAN... Usually goes through in minutes but now no money has arrived on my Revolut account. Must be the switch causing them the need to manually check the transfer, I hope. I will be mightily annoyed if the transfer fails because of the switch. Can I just get the Lithuanian IBAN back if that works...?
Has anyone got the credit card or is it entirely waiting list still?
Bonkers says the APR is 17.99%. This sounds fairly crap, what am I missing here? My AIB credit card is about 10%?
Can you sign in on another device and see? I've the app on my phone and tablet. Both latest versions. On the phone the joint account option is there but on the tablet it isn't.
Thanks, yeah I figure rental companies will get annoyed without a physical card.
They could probably type in the card number on the machine, or if you pre-book they might be able to take the number
I'm not planning to rent a car anytime soon so not a major concern, but it's always nice to have the option
Anytime I've rented a car they have wanted the physical card.
For emergency money, once you don't mean cash you should be able to tap your phone.
Fees and Charges wise, there's the 30e a year Gov Stamp Duty, but that's it.
Has anyone tried using a virtual credit card abroad for emergency money or to rent a car?
Those are probably the only two things I'd want a credit card for and I'd prefer not to be forced to get a physical card if I can avoid it
Also, am I right in saying there's no charges to the card if I don't use it? I'm in the waitlist so I can't see the T&Cs yet
I was thinking of getting rid of my AIB credit card and applying for a Revolut one, just wondering does anyone know if you get your wages paid into the joint account does this count as proof of income or do you need to get it paid into your personal account?
You'd think it'd be ok but the joint account seems a bit like an afterthought tacked on at the moment.
@Bennyx. That’s very kind of you to take the time to reply, and as a result I’m sorted. Many thanks.
what happened to Revolut Ultra? was meant to come out over Sprint right? Sprint is almost done lol
CAnt apply for a credit card because i cant link my EBS account. They are not offering an upload of payslips or statements to prove earnings
Will have to get my salary paid into my Revolut account.
22 characters is right, it should be IEXXIPBS990XXXXXXXXXXX where the first 2 digits (between the IE and IPBS) are 2 check digits and the last 16 are your sort code and account number. When I try to add my PTSB IBAN it tells me it isn't the correct format until I have the full IBAN entered
I'm trying to transfer money from my Revolut to my Permanent TBS account, but Revolut is saying the IBAN isn't the correct format.
There's 22 letters/numbers in my PTSB Iban.
As soon as i type in the first five letters/nembers revolut saying its wrong. Am I missing something obvious? Thanks
It's a standard legal requirement for them to ask for it as they need to report to revenue each year for each and every customer for tax and tax avoidance reasons. Nothing to be concerned about unless you are dodging tax.
Every bank need to do this N26 also ask for it as do all Irish banks.
As for friends and family they will get around to asking them also. I had my account about 3 years or more before I was asked for it. It was about 3 months after I started using it as my day to day bank. Could be you use it more.
Hi, question: so revolut has asked me to give my pps number, but no one else in my friends circle or family circle has been asked and I'm not getting suspicious about it. Any one know the story there?
If it ever happens then I imagine it'll only be for the paid subscription options.
Basically none of the Irish banks are interested in offering decent interest on savings so there isn't much incentive for Revolut to do it
You could always check out Raisin bank for savings. I haven't used them yet (don't be fooled by the username 😁) but they basically let you open savings accounts on other EU countries which have better interest rates
You are of course not guaranteed under the Irish savings scheme, but a lot of EU countries have similar guarantees
So does anyone know if there's any disadvantages to the Revolut joint account? So far it seems to do everything I'd want without charging horrendous fees
I'm very tempted to switch our joint account to Revolut since An Post aren't great and tend to charge for a lot of things
Since the joint account is used for bills primarily then as long as it's an Irish IBAN and all the major providers will accept it then I'm happy
In the same boat as many here.
Running version 9.2 and still no Irish IBAN or joint account option. When I click on learn more from notification it says the link doesn't work and update the app, despite it being the most up to date. Frustrating but I'm sure it'll come across eventually
Given they provide true free banking wouldn't surprise me (and it would be fair in my opinion) to not pay any interest for a while yet.
Great, some devlopment at least, thanks.
Does anyone know when interest to vault savings will be applied in Ireland?
And what the rate will be.
Thanks!
I also received a call from a guy in AIB complaints admitting that there does appear to be an issue as described and that there is an investigation underway due to a number of customer complaints. They are also sending out a letter stating that they are looking into the issue between the two banks.
Coincidentally I got a response from revolut complaints department via email also yesterday. In their response they actually said AIB are returning a response in below quoted response code which is new information. They also refunded me a couple months metal fees for the trouble while stating that they will not uphold the complaint as is "not their issue".
"Following a thorough examination by our Payments Investigation team, they found that the above mentioned transactions had been rejected by the beneficiary. When SEPA transfers are returned to the sender, the return has been generated by the beneficiary bank. This means that the transfers were successfully completed on our end, however, AIB returned them to us. After a deep dive into the transfer data, our team found that, in the reasoning behind why the transfers were rejected, AIB had given a reason code that corresponded to an “incorrect account number”. While I understand that this lack of clarity must be particularly frustrating from a customer perspective, I must underline that we do not have any control or insight into AIB’s processes or systems, and, regretfully, we cannot comment further as to why the transfers were rejected or why they deemed the account number to be incorrect."
Just an update on this.
A lady from the AIB complaints team gave me a call today to say that they have escalated it with the relevant teams and that she would give me a call when she had an update, but as of yet they don't have one.
So at least its being looked into!
I was in that boat. I cancelled my account next day I opened again and got the Irish iban and joint account. Cc not even letting me in on the waiting list. I’m ok with that since my main concern was Irish iban and the joint account.
I dont seem to have access to the new joint accounts feature even though I am on the latest version of revolut.
No Irish IBAN, Loan, or CC access either (On the wait lists, very frustrating)
You don't share benefits.
The difference from a group vault is you can spend money from your joint account, it has a card and you can setup direct debits. If you're just using it for joint savings there's no point, just stick with a vault.
Thanks, my salary goes to N26 at the moment and I can't link that account to Revolut....might have to just get my salary directed to Revolut..a lot of it gets sucked out to n26 for savings and mortgage repayment anyway.
No you can pay it by card, I work for them lol. But it'll just come up "this card cannot be used for this transaction" for alot of non-irish banks. It's the stupidest system.
It has to be cash I found out from a previous poster here.
I'm on the Metal plan, if I open a joint account will my Metal benefits be shared? Or is it completely separate?
Trying to see if there's much benefit to a joint account versus the group vaults me and my partner currently use.
