Cheers.. will look at that so
You could do the same by buying gift cards or prepaid master cards or whatever?
anyone know how to deactivate cryptocurrencies so that it won’t draw from crypto balances when the main currency accounts are low. There was an option to “deactivate” but it seems to be gone. The online help guys are totally clueless
I did a transfer from my AIB to Revolut this evening (approx 3 hours ago) and just received it into my Revolut account now. I thought the cut off was 4:30 or so and wasn’t expecting it until Monday/Tuesday. How come I received it so quick if it’s just a regular SEPA transfer? Anytime I transfer to another Irish bank it’s 1/2 days depending on time of day I transfer.
Why is it only making the news now that Revlout has a Internet savings account? I've had it since February, since I read about it on this thread and I'm getting the 3.45% interest, I'm on the free account.
Because you misunderstand what product you are using is why. You are using an investment fund not a deposit savings account which is the new product they have.
Will all balances on the free revolut accounts now get 2% interest?
You need to open a savings account on the revolut app
Transfer between the card account and savings and back will be instant
Expect all RoI banks to charge soon for credit card transfers to Rev
Some already do
This new account means for those whose credit card doesn't charge,you can send your entire card credit limit over to a Rev deposit account for 50 days and be paid daily interest on it,and repay the card with it in time each month,rinse and repeat
Just have enough money elsewhere to cover the bill in case Revolut freezes your account because they think you might have violated their T&C, do money laundering or something else the AI makes up and you sit there for weeks trying to get it freed up.
Is there any way to schedule a recurring transfer from one Revolut account to another? Just opened a joint account for the bills and don’t see an option. To be honest I can’t even see the help or contact option any more.
These savings accounts are fantastic. Can finally close my final bricks and mortar account. Only had an AIB account for the savings facility
Question: i set up 2 of those investment things they launched a few months back. Are these savings accounts essentially the same, but with more guarantees behind them?
Yes, but it's slightly bizarre
In fact this wasn't working before for joint accounts, but I tried it again today after reading your post and it works for me
Anyway, you need to go into the joint account and get the IBAN. You can then set them up as a payee for transfers
When making a transfer to another Revolut user, there's a calendar button on the bottom left where you can schedule transfers. Works for any kind of transfer, bank transfers or Revolut
It's never happened to me
Same for myself and I get paid into it and use it as day to day and some smaller on hand investment "saving" funds.
Thanks, yeah does seem a little bit around the houses. I’ve a couple of recurring transfers already to “normal” bank accounts. Will do that anyway - thanks again
What I found was that searching for your joint account doesn't seem to turn up any results, even though Revolut should know it belongs to you
I've wondered if it's to do with the privacy settings, if one person doesn't allow their account to be searchable then maybe it applies to the joint account as well
It really depends on your spending profile and what you do, it's mostly driven by their technology used the difficulty is that the front line chat people are not able to actually do anything or even overwrite clear errors but it has to go to the "escalation team" or the "specialist team".
That is where (unless you are on Ultra) the main drawback of using Revolut is, when something goes wrong you rely on chat (not even phone) and mostly it's unclear who and when they will help you.
This is a great product for getting some few bob on the money you don't want to lock away and not messing with tax returns.
Just curious which Irish banks charge for CC top ups? I'd a KBC card and it was free, that card is now BOI and it's still free. I think AIB are the same
Avant card treat it as a cash advance,so interest charged immediately
Most UK banks also
Did you ask get the 1% cashback offer of you use revolut as main account? Have to lodge 1800 by July 5th. Also get 3.94% on savings, regardless of plan. Trying to find the terms. My wages all go into revolt anyway so I should be ok, and a few direct debits leaving it
Anyone having problems adding money? Getting "oops something went wrong" when trying to. Looks like system issues looking at Twitter.
Yeah,Lots of things not working and I'm an ultra customer
Can't even contact them whic is instsnt including call backs as a stated benefit of ultra
Any details on this? Ask who?
I got it too. It's some new promotion.
"Your boosts: 1% cashback On your spend
3.94% variable APY Create Flexible Cash Funds. Paid daily
24/7 dedicated support Get personalised help from experts via chat or callback"
Add €1,800 in Revolut before 5/7. I am a Metal customer
Those higher rates dont normally apply to ordinary revolut accounts
They go up in stages depending on your subscription,with the highest rate going to ultra customers
This particular promotion is open to all customers, even free ones. The only condition seems to be you opt in and add €1,800 to your account.
This seems wrong as you need Ultra Plan for 3.49 % and fee plan is 2%.
Have I got this wrong.?
Yeah it's a new different offer open to all accounts, even free - it specically says open to free account holder. What I don't know is how often you have to lodge 1,8000 after July and if you need to keep a minimum blanance or anything
