At the moment to pay in a cheque you have to go to a Pay point

Didn’t realise you could pay in cheques at PayPoint, I thought it was cash only.

@anon24233442

if I want to pay a cheque into my Lloyds account, what I do is open my Lloyd’s app go to cheq Payin part and photograph the cheque with my iPhone and then Lloyd’s deals with that and it’s in my account ( shown) immediately and able to be drawn on in 3 days…

Monzo are already working on this:

Making Monzo: Cheque Imaging

Back in June we announced our plans to let you pay in cheques, just by taking a picture! In this thread, we’ll share updates and screenshots of how we’re getting on. Update 3/1/18: We’ve had to push the launch date of cheque imaging back a bit. Here’s some more info about why - In the meantime, we’d love to hear from you… What do you typically receive cheques for? How much are the cheques worth? How often do you personally write cheques? (And what for?)

Would love to be able to hide my locked round up account and then get a nice surprise notification when I hit my goal! Super!

Okay, bye for now.

Feature idea: ability to create disposable virtual card

[AshMaude (Ashleigh Maude)]

Hi there,

I’m not sure if this has been said already but I really love the categories that you can specify payments to (transport, groceries, eating out etc). However, it would be really helpful if there was a way to create your own category if your desired one isn’t there! Maybe you could have a ‘create category’ icon and then you could choose a pic for it and create it yourself? I find that sometimes I require a category that doesn’t currently exist.

Thanks!

Hi there!

Just an idea for you guys to consider possibly. When I set up a pot that I want to pay into on a payday to payday basis via a scheduled payment. I am unable to do this as my paydays are 4 weekly rather than monthly. Maybe add an option for 4 weekly scheduled payments into a pot/savings account?

Keep up the good work!

[jackie (Jack)]

So, I had this idea in the morning. That’d be a cool feature to hide the tiny round-up bug above the logos as it always reminds me of the pot. 90% of the time I cannot resist not to spend it when I see those extra coins on my account. #feedback

I would like a way to set custom subscriptions. I have a personal trainer twice a week on a Tuesday and Thursday however if I use the card payment from one of these days it doesn’t stick to the same date weekly

[karlossios (Karl)]

+1 for this! I’d love to be able to manually input cash transactions, and perhaps even transactions spent on other cards (accidentally paid with the wrong card on Android Pay that was accidentally set as the default card).

[soggyswine (Darren)]

Any chance of Monzo adding an exchange rate calculator to the App instead of us having to visit a web site?

Not sure if this has been suggested but some sort of ‘hidden’ or ‘dark’ pot that hides the total from the main dashboard would be good for savers who like to tuck money away without always seeing how much is being saved would be great.

I still have separate savings account with another bank as I don’t want to be able to see how much I have in my savings all the time!

Hiding pots

Hiding pots will help massively when saving, it’s the old principal of ‘out of sight, out of mind’.

Support for Samsung Pay would be greatly appreciated. Considering how widely Samsung pay is used I’m surprised Monzo doesn’t have plans for this.

Support for Samsung Pay

The Andoid app is so far behind and there’s a lot more to come first… But Samsung Pay support would be nice. I’d completely dismissed it for Android Pay until today when they rolled out support to the Gear S3 watch. It’d be nice to have. Latest response from Monzo:

• Love the breakdown of spending categories in the app, v helpful. Would be great to add your own categories or edit ones you don’t use to something else. Also would be good to adjust figures in transactions for the monthly spend - for example if you bought something for someone else and they paid you back for some of the transaction in cash.
• Would love a Monzo credit card, so there is the purchase protection on larger spend items.
• Plus an option for savings accounts with an ethical provider.
• Reminder of upcoming direct debits come a day in advance, would love to get even more notice on these (as if you have to transfer money in from an account with next day payment it becomes a bit tight).
  Thanks for a great app so far

Custom Category Creation

Hey, I’ve merged a number of custom category threads here Keeping all the chatter in one place is generally best but on second thought this was a challenging merge and maybe I should have left it well alone Continue the discussion below as usual

Offer credit card

It would be ideal if you could offer a credit card, I want to stop having to deal with HSBC altogether but need a credit card for travelling (hotels, hire cars etc)

[Lausan (Laura)]

Monzo app on mobile phones should have a passcode like any other mobile banking. So no one would be able to access the app apart from the owner. This way we would avoid any frauds, etc.

[awjdean]

@Lausan

This way we would avoid any frauds, etc.

I completely understand why someone might want a passcode to open the Monzo app from a privacy point of view.

However, I don’t think it would help reduce fraud - without a passcode to open the app you still need to use a PIN or biometric authentication to transfer money or approve payments.

Passcode for App

Hey guys, I love how speedy the app is however I feel when it comes to money a little security would be great. Could you implement a passcode to open the app to protect users financial data? Many thanks,
