Denied from a monzo account

[imintroubel]

I recently turned 16 and i wanted to open a monzo account as in late 2019 and early 2020 i was involved in fraud. I applied to open a monzo account as i heard that they accept people even if they have cifas markers. Well i was denied from a monzo account and was wondering what other options do i have in terms of bank accounts that i can open

Cat 6 CIFAS Marker

Cat 6 CIFAS Marker I’m really hoping Monzo can help me out here. I’m so worried I’ve messed up my life by doing something so stupid because I was intimidated at school and was too weak and naive to stand up to these thugs when I was 16. I’ve made a really stupid mistake which could seriously mess up my education and life because I cant get a job or apply for a grant because I need an account in my name.

Most likely the cifas is the reason you was denied.

You’ll have to email monzo although since they said no they’ll only change their minds in extremely rare occasions such as it was an error on their since which most likely wasn’t the reason

Sadly most British banks don’t like cifas markers - if you’re desperate for monzo you’ll need to re apply the in future
