Did Bolt. When the cab was booking it took funds and gave cashback. But then we opted to offer a bit more to increase the chance of a pickup. The ultimate fare was a bit more, but the original fare was refunded and cashback reclaimed.
I suspect this might be a common issue for the Uber’s and Bolt’s of this world, particularly with a single use cashback offer.
Supportive of the comments about the same old brands - some have been consistent since Nov 23.
Given that most of use Monzo to save money / manage /better visibility then more frequent use of generic stores for the stuff that really matters would be more beneficial to all.
The current offers seem biased to folks living the city-ish life and do not support rural living. My nearest Pret is over 60 miles away. Uber/Gett/Deliveroo aren’t supported where I live.
I long for the days of Spar/Morrisons please.
I think the thing that frustrates me about the cash back offers is that 80% of them are fairly consistently the same. I understand Monzo and the company are probably trying to get me to go and use that service but after 4/5 times of that offer being valid and me not using it, you’d think they’d maybe switch it up.
For example:
LNER, Ebay, Gett, Guosto, Virgin Trains Ticketing, Yo Sushi. Have been repeated for me pretty consistently
My Disney + is back this month, after being there since launch and then disappearing for one month which just happened to be the month my subscription was due.
No idea if it’s just a super unfortunate coincidence or intentional but it’s an incredibly annoying customer experience. I’d almost rather these offers are never an option than to be teased with them popping up at multiple dates when I can’t use them, for a thing that the customer has no choice over when they buy.
I would use that a lot if they gave it to me. They didn’t.
I don’t shop at Asda much, but they could have seen my few shops from my connected accounts, if they are processing that data.
Instead, every single offer I got tonight is either one where I virtually never shop or one that is so far away from me (like hundreds of miles across the water) that it’s completely irrelevant.
Not bad. I’ve got LNER at 5% multi-use this time. Still doesn’t beat my AMEX LNER 10% cashback that I’ve had since January. That’s saved me over £40 so far!
