Revolut Megathread.

For revolut? Doesn't show in my app yet. What are the locations listed out of interest?

I have had revolut for about 18 months, it is handy, but only use it occasionally.

Lately, its been asking me for my PPS number and I have just ignored it (was suspicious to be honest)

someone today has tried to do a transfer to me and its not allowing them, I guess to do with this PPS scenario.

Is there any issues with adding your PPS number to revolut?

Interesting I don't see it mentioned on their site or help sections they specifically say no cash lodgements available but will be nice to have it as an option. Wonder do payzone if that's who it is will take a taste out of the amount lodged.

No it's standard practice for banks to request it for tax reporting/compliance purposes.

Had two attempted card authorisations from eirion??? Going around in circles a bit with chat and they have frozen my card.

anyone anything similar not much from Google search

I had a couple of € in crypto, I just cashed it in and it only cost me 3 cent. Last time I tried to sell it off it was costing me more than I had in it. 

Eir is Eir and Ion is their new payments system, so if you recognise payments to Eir, well and good, if not, then someone’s trying to impersonate them by the looks of it.

I had a similar issue with N26; I signed up with my familiar name which I use on pretty much everything except passport, not on any bank stuff at all. Then N26 took about a week to manually verify me, which I was fine with really given that’s the timeframe for a regular bank. But then they wouldn’t take any proof of address off me, and they didn’t seem to have any way of overriding their AI-based system whereas a regular bank here would have just Ok’d it. Now I have an N26 account in a name nobody would recognise really. I pretty much only use it for the work canteen so it’s not that much of a deal with Christ there’s something to be said for a nice pillar-digital bank middleground.

Revolut failed me twice today for the first time in years I would say. So Tesco in Stillorgan off-licence told me contactless is down chip and pin only. That's fine used Revolut card (Mastercard debit) chip and pin took a while and didn't go though and nothing in my app about it. Tried once more same result. Used my AIB visa chip and pin and that went through.

Went and did my shop in the main Tesco where they were announcing the whole time about contactless down. Tried revolut failed again so used AIB visa again.

Now I didn't try my Revolut Visa debit which I could have done.

I completely disagree. Having an alternative payment method is sound advice applicable to everyone in every country.

As per above happened me today and if I didn't have another method of payment I would have not gotten what I went to the shops for 🤷‍♂️
