This would certainly go a long way to persuading me to switch back to Monzo.

Looking forward to cheque imaging, partiularly if it’s well implemented (for instance, it’s a lot easier getting Starling to accept photos of a cheque than NatWest).

Never been more excited for a feature I’ll never use.

I wonder if my HSBC chequebook works, so I can send cheques to my Monzo account? :wink:

I’m more excited that the list of requested features by the Community still has traction, regardless of what they are:

Done:
Dark Mode
Pot to Pot transfers
Ordering Pots
Custom Categories (paid tiers)
Bill pots
Samsung Pay
Instant withdrawals from Savings pots

etc…

Still to do:
Plus/Premium for Joint Accounts (snippets becoming visible)
Cheque Imaging (looks like :soon:)
Desktop (browser) access :person_shrugging:
Running balance on each entry :person_shrugging:
Garmin pay :eyes:

While it might be slow, Monzo is blasting through the outstanding ‘Big List’ (remember that one?) type items.

Ahh the big list days. That was funtimes. It is good to see Monzo tick some off and with some tantalisingly close as well. I’m looking at you JAs!

Lots of people were saying cheque imaging was never coming ………… I always thought Monzo would have to add it sooner or later as paying money in (not via post) is an essential part of banking! Pleased it’s coming soon :clap:

That, plus iPad banking and a revised premium product may well tempt me back yet

The list of things that might “tempt you back” grows every time you say it!

I’ll just be glad that this circular topic will come to an end :sweat_smile:

Also, it will be interesting to see if all those people who said “This is why I wont use Monzo as my primary account” will actually follow through :thinking:

A lot of those people did also want Post Office cash pay-in support (also supposedly coming soon) along with cheque support in-app. I’m sure they will be pleased once both features are available, especially if Post Office usage is free.

It looks like Monzo have now officially joined the ICS scheme, so further evidence that this feature must be close!

It’s very good to see a full house on payment scheme support, anyway.

:smile: you’re right, an end to the merry-go-round!

Also an end to the annual problem at Christmas when too many cheques descend on Monzo HQ at once and they have to keep posting about processing delays to reassure customers that they are just running behind on clearing cheques, rather than having issues, as people get impatient and think that their cheques have got lost in the post!

I think they are probably aiming for a quick pre-Christmas launch now, since they seem so close, although maybe we’ll have it one more time.

Don’t forget all the people who need to pay up too :moneybag:

Looking at you @Carlo1460 and @Revels :laughing:

Is that 1p X all 38,402 users?
