    In the case of a trial or discounted period offers where a credit/debit card payment details are provided, the subscription will revert to a monthly charge at the standard Premium or Premium+ rate, once the trial or discounted period is over. By submitting payment details you accept the offer and consent to us using your payment details in accordance with our privacy statement. If you do not want to remain a paying user you must cancel your account by emailing customerhelp@independent.ie. By continuing to use the service after the price change takes effect, you are agreeing to the new price.

    It's 13.99 per month not for three months

    Heres the confirmation Email I got from them after signing up

    Subscription Starts: 26/11/2020 22:08
    Subscription Name: €3 for 3 months Premium+ Subscription Paid every 3 months
    First payment Date: 26/11/2020
    First payment Cost: €3.00
    Next payment Date: 26/02/2021
    Subscription Payments: €13.99 charged every 3 months
    Payment Method: Card Payment

    Clearly states €13-99 every 3 months, but i think you are right. it should be per month.

    Just an update. I cancelled this deal on the 30 Jan and received the confirmation of same. Saved a copy on phone.

    I've now just received another email this evening from the Indo reminding me to cancel or they're gonna take the 13.99 out per month.

    I emailed them back with copy of said confirmation and received standard reply off them ie they're very busy and to look through their FAQ section. I couldn't get through to them by 'phone.

    Keep an eye on your cards folks.

    Likewise - they are a joke shop.
    Can't get through on phone.
    I emailed to tell I did not want to continue the subscription after receiving the same reminder. :(:mad:
    Got a reply saying if I want my subscription to continue, to do nothing, my card will just automatically get charged.

    Just freeze your card? Unfreeze when you need to use it.

    Exactly. I use a specific virtual Revolut card for all these subscription offers that I keep frozen so there's never an issue.

    Yes you could, but TBF you shouldn't have to do this, if their Subscription Dept. was anyway competent.

    Agreed but, from experience, it's a common strategy of companies offering subscription trials to make it as awkward as possible to cancel at the end of the trial period.

    Will try and cancel mine tomorrow. The 3 months is up next week.

    I emailed them and asked them to convert me to the €5.99pm premium sub, which they did.



    €13.99pm was out of the question.

    Rang To Cancel this morning, Offered the same sub for 6.99 per month, must sign in for a 12 month contract....

    I did...:o


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,810 ✭✭✭Dr.Winston O'Boogie


    Rang just there to cancel and got straight through, very pain free process.

    Slightly off topic rant.

    I absolutely hate getting reminders bills etc from [email]noreply@......ie[/email]. Or stating in the text that they don't want me to respond to the text.

    The company had the brass neck to contact me that way. Inevitably they don't give you an email address or a text number you can reply to.

    I invariably respond to that email/text.

    I couldn't give a monkeys whether they read it or not. That's not my problem. I notified them that i was cancelling the deal.

    Maybe I didn't do it exactly the way they wanted me to do it. But if they contact me that way then I feel it's perfectly reasonable for me to respond to them in the same way.

    I did notify them.

    Firstly I’m grateful the reminded me, plenty of companies don’t

    Secondly I got the following so no idea what you are ranting and raving about.

    “ Dear William,

    Please note that your discounted period will be ending shortly, your standard priced Premium+ subscription will then begin.

    At the renewal date and each month thereafter, until you cancel, you will automatically be charged the subscription fee €13.99 per month.

    If you do not want to continue with your subscription, please contact our customer care team, on +353 (0)1 705 5333 or email us at customerhelp@independent.ie


  • Registered Users Posts: 531 ✭✭✭xredmanlfcx


    Just tried to ring customer care. Their phone lines are only open 8am to 4pm Monday to Friday. Will try emailing, thanks to previous post.

    Exactly. I sent a short email to that address and got a reply the following day confirming my cancellation. Couldn't have been easier.

    Rang them at lunchtime. 2 mins waiting and 30 seconds on the phone. Very easy. He told me I can still access my subscription until it's finished also.

    Did anyone else get this offer? Mines up tomorrow and would be happy enough to keep it going for 6.99

    They're advertising this on my downloaded copy most mornings.


  • Registered Users Posts: 186 ✭✭IHateNewShoes


    Just as a follow up, the €6.99 offer is a 12 month contract!

    They currently have a deal with Energia but haven't looked into the in's and out vs other switcher offers out there.

    Fine if you want a €350 smart home voucher to buy over priced useless stuff that you dont even need and would get exactly the same for a few euro on amazon.




    Revoluts offers are never good. Try reading their small print in their insurance or gadget insurance offers


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,001 ✭✭✭timple23


    Sent an email to customer service asking to cancel subscription, got sent a link, went through process and was given four options;

    1. pay 3 euro/month for next 3 months (9 euro in total) and then revert to 13.99.
    2. pause payments for 60 days but keep same access and then revert to 13.99.
    3. upgrade to premium for 30 days and then revert to 13.99.
    4. Cancel subscription.

    Might be of use to some.

    Folks, does anyone know how to stop Revolut sending annoying notifications saying they have rewards for me, and offering me premium cards etc? I obviously want notifications for revolut on for actual transactions, but they send so many notifications I have no interest in. I don't want to bother with any of the rewards or anything else, I just want to use the card when I need it :confused:

    On iOS app, tap the circle on top left of Home Screen, it’s usually your initials or a photo. Scroll down to privacy, click into it and you can toggle off a bunch of different settings.

    I know this isn't a Revolut bargain but I had a question. Everyone I know with a Revolut card in Ireland has a new Lithuanian LT IBAN but I do not - still says GB. Card is registered to an Irish address. I got the email before Dec telling me I was moving over and all my rewards offers etc are in Euro for companies here.

    I spoke with their chat numerous times in Jan/Feb and they tell me they are still migrating Irish users over. However it's now nearly 3 months into 2021 and I'm dubious I will be done, so I wondering if I was missed somehow....

    Anyone else still got a GB IBAN or is everyone migrated over to LT IBANs?

    Awesome, never thought to check privacy! It's the same on Android by the way ;)
