Your best bet is to pm @alandoe. Also, if you don’t mind, why are you exiting the community? ---

Unfortunately it wont be possible to delete your account if you have posted over a certain number of topics or comments on the community forum. The best you can hope for is for your account to be anonymised of which simply changes your username and clears your profile picture. It might not sound compliant with GDPR, but regulations say it is enough. ---

Hi @anon74360051 , Sorry to hear you want to delete your account but I understand the reason. I’m guilty of spending to much time here myself 🙈 I’ve ping’d this across to Monzo staff and hopefully they will be in touch. ---
