    48 customers also seem to be affected by the lack of SMS arriving. At least I do anyways.

    anyone else stuck on the account verification page? Say "please bear with us" About 36 hours now.

    Transferred money to it and made a transaction with the card. Should hopefully get the €15 in the next few days. I'll update the thread when I do.

    Went with topcashback for another 16 Sterling cashback


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,100 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    Got my 15 euro already. Way quicker than I was expecting.


  • Registered Users Posts: 561 ✭✭✭thenightman


    Do you have to top up by 15 and make a transaction for 15 to get the free 15? I'm just going to top up and send it to my Revolut card like to count as a transaction

    Iv been having issues with curve being declined as of late. I'm not inclined to rely on it.

    I was having my own issues but that was down to me setting it to the wrong card.

    Not sure my monese card will get used much. Between credit card with cashbsck, normal bank cards and revolut I'm not really seeing a use for this card besides from this offer but never hurts to have more choice.

    Anybody else have trouble adding an EBS Mastercard as a source?


  • Registered Users Posts: 811 ✭✭✭Rock Paper Scissors

    Wonder if you get the 16.80GBP plus the €15 if you sign up through topcashback or instead of?

    I don't think you can get both. I tried the topcashback link but the cashback hasn't showed up, probably because I used the promo code in the OP.

    Mine is tracked waiting for card to get the 15 after first txn..


  • Registered Users Posts: 589 ✭✭✭Careful_now!


    Just applied for this and had to do a video chat thing with them.

    He was asking me why I want the card and how much I'll keep in the account.

    It felt a bit weird...... anybody else go through that?

    That is a bit weird, although I had to do a video chat for N26 iirc. For this I just had to do the headshake video

    Strange. I just had a head turn and read out a few numbers. Even that felt bizarre enough!

    I just had to read out my favourite credit card number.... he said I nailed the head turn though.

    I got an email from them today saying We want to let you know that we will be making some changes to our Terms and Conditions. 

    They were able to send me that but I've no account because I'm still waiting on this infamous text message!

  • Registered Users Posts: 561 ✭✭✭thenightman


    Got my 15e. Cheers OP!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,820 ✭✭✭Dr.Winston O'Boogie


    Has anyone got the video call request to complete the set up? Where they say they need to verify more info over the phone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭robman60


    How long has it taken for people to receive their cards? Surprised I haven't received anything yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,572 ✭✭✭TheGunns

    How long after activating the card did it take?

    I left it 3 working days after first transaction and then e-mailed them querying it. Was in account a few hours after.

    Yeah, I got that. Found it a bit weird


  • Registered Users Posts: 935 ✭✭✭darconio


    Do you just need to add money to the account in order to get the 15€ or you actually need to make a transaction?

    I made a transaction Friday evening and the €15 showed up on Saturday morning.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,226 ✭✭✭Credit Checker Moose


    Once the first transaction finalises the 15 is automatically credited. So usually 24 to 48 hours after making the transaction.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭taytobreath


    I got mine today, only 3 days it took.

    Just wondering, can these cards be used for contactless transactions


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,226 ✭✭✭Credit Checker Moose


    Yes. They can.

    Does it have to be an online transaction or can I just tap pay for something in a shop?

    I paid for something in a shop. I didn't tap though, it was a normal chip and pin transaction.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,807 ✭✭✭The J Stands for Jay


    Is anyone going to keep the account going after getting the free €15? I can see any reason for using it. I have far too many fintec accounts as it is.

    I'll keep the card but I'll continue using revolut as my day to day card. Best of the lot.

    They'll all probably partner with different companies for marketing and offer benefits or discounts.
    I will use my Monese for Paypal payments.
