You’re probably being flagged because you’re trying to start arguments and having little digs that you seem to think are clever.

People choose banks for a whole host of reasons. Primarily for banking reasons.

People are not going to join Monzo because it has a discord forum. In the same way people don’t join Monzo now because of this forum.

The majority of people that post here do so for help and those people post, get the help and never come back. They don’t want to stick around and talk banking like the rest of us nerds.

I don’t see how saying that Monzo relies on funding rounds to stay afloat is offensive, it’s just true. I don’t see how saying that Monzo is making huge losses is offensive… it’s just a fact?

Maybe someone thought they were off topic?

[richiehart (Richie)]

How is you saying that I seem “completely clueless about Monzo based on my recent posts” not a dig?! Talk about favouritism

Merely trying to point out that Monzo needs to start doing things differently

I really hope the misspelling of TikTok was part of the punchline!!! I found it hilarious if it was

Ah yes, intentional. Fully intentional humour there. Of course…

Now, to attract a younger audience, what Monzo really need to do is get on the TickTock.

Just waiting for the inevitable Monzo / sea shanty mash-up and my life will be complete.

Sooon may the Monzo Man come…

There are so many fishermen that need bank accounts! I can’t believe that Monzo don’t see this!!!1111!!111!!1one

[richiehart (Richie)]

My suggestion was a serious one, unlike all of these bitterly sarcastic and vitriolic put-downs

And you’re not?

@Revels

if anything it needs to be slower to encourage people to think before they post.

Exactly

[Addzy]

Plenty of discussion happens on here, but you won’t get very far by just repeating yourself. It’s ok for you to have an idea, it’s also ok for you to think it’s a good one, it doesn’t automatically mean that everybody else shares your view, the fact it still has 0 votes when you’ve had people comment points to the fact that people don’t agree.

Whilst i like Discord, I don’t see any world where Monzo shifting this forum over to Discord would cause an increase in customer numbers or profit at all.

It’s laughable to think a Discord server will mean Monzo won’t need any more funding rounds.

@richiehart

I don’t see how saying that Monzo is making huge losses is offensive… it’s just a fact?

Who said it’s offensive? I don’t think anybody has, most of the everyday users on this forum understand Monzos position and that they’re not profitable yet

[richiehart (Richie)]

What argument am I trying to start??! I’m trying to have a discussion about Discord for goodness sake.

[Addzy]

Well, it worked with the meme

[Demmedelusive (Graham)]

Not aimed at you (see post)

Calm down…

[richiehart (Richie)]

Increase in user base = more profit

[Addzy]

Not technically true, Monzo lose money on a lot of people’s current accounts.

How does moving from Discourse to Discord translate to an increase in user base?

[richiehart (Richie)]

Because it makes it more visible

[richiehart (Richie)]

By “it” I mean Monzo

[Addzy]

How though? You still have to learn about the channel and add it?

The forum isn’t a marketing tool, whilst it might help and appeal to some people, it’s not a reason people tend to join Monzo, there also one of the only banks with a forum so if that is what makes people join then they’d be winning already.

A lot of new signups have come to this forum because people cant find a way to contact Monzo since they made the stupid decsion to hide chat.

There’s lots of ways Monzo can improve and gain more customers, this isn’t one.

Tthey need to learn improve their handling of the amount of customers they have before they can aim to really go on a user gaining spree

Word of mouth / referral / how Monzo started

It could be more of one

Well I’d hate them to see how new users of the forums get flamed for suggesting something

I respectfully disagree

Each is dependent on the other
