cool, just concerned that if i upgrade, i’ll get a normal debit card before getting an investor card (dont see the point of getting two lots of debit cards).

Oh damn I hadn’t thought of that. And the old card number will presumably start being declined when I activate the new investor card, so I’ll need to update a load of online services - hmm not sure I’m so keen now…

Although the coral core looks great, I wasn’t overly impressed with the quality of the rest of the card. The embossed numbers have already lost their white colour, the expiry date is annoyingly not level with ‘exp end’ and there is even a hair under the plastic 🙈!

I guess they’ll be a few teething problems with having a few different suppliers of the card!

Cops are sending me out a new one! 👍🏼

They confirmed the date won’t sit center however with the ‘expiry end’ due to how the card manufacturers machines work. They’re hoping for a fix at a later date! 😃

Hmm, interesting. Hope I don’t end up breaking it.

Lol, it will sit in my travel card wallet, I use it for contactless payments for coffee shops! I doubt it will make a public appearance 😜

Received my investors card too today. Very happy to have one, it’s looking very smart. However, the one thing I’m a bit sad about is that it’s got my full name printed on it. ☹

My first name is Jonathan but I’m known as Jon by everyone. I’d have even preferred just my initial than first name (as my other banks do).

Should I ever need a replacement in the future, am I able to request this be changed? It’s the one thing that spoils the card for me - other than that, very happy. New MasterCard logo compliments the card nicely and the coral core is great.

Similarly, I know Monzo allows us to set a preferred name in when speaking to customer support - but it’s never a setting that seems to be remembered. I’m always addressed as Jonathan by the customer service reps despite asking this to be set to Jon at least twice.

Message COps about this, as your preferred name is what should be used on the debit card. Maybe DM @RichardR too, as he has been a fount of knowledge on the name issue.

Got mine through yesterday after requesting Monday. Nice to see Monzo using my preferred name (Middle & Surname) rather than the usual (First & Surname) most banks would insist upon.
