Personally I think all threads about card colour should be closed now a decision has been made and if they want to revisit the decision in a year or two to open a new thread then.
We don’t want it running permanently like an open sore with people constantly objecting to the corporate choice day after day.
Perhaps a refreshed one at some point when the new cards are in our hands? I agree with @anon44204028 on this one, this thread was started in response to people thinking that Coral was disappearing
Equally though, I agree that the principle of this is to keep everyone talking and able to give feedback! I’d argue that a fresh thread might be more suitable than this superthread
I pretty much got my Monzo account SOLELY based on the colour of the card, I mean the other features are amazing don’t get me wrong, but never would have been attracted to it in the first place if not for the colour!
I was on the hate side, now I am on the meh side (there is such a side!) One of the reasons is that it does look better in person then on screen. I would in an ideal word prefer a different colour or at least the choice to choose but what can you do? I can (and have) via the forums asked them to offer another card colour but they are just as entitled to ignore such overtures as they have done thus far.
I’d love to see a wraparound coral/navy design for the final cards, sounds like it’d be beautiful! That said, if we did end up with the shiny-dotted card from the GIF in the original post, I can’t say I’d be upset – as fond as I am of my hot coral Monzo beta card!
I dropped my coral card in the middle of a gig. One minute I was moshing away the next I noticed the hot pink out of the corner of my eye. Knew it was mine immediately.
It’s certainly distinctive and easy to spot, which has made people ask me about it. But I’ve had people say it sounds great then decide the colour is too awful.
Happy New Year hot coral folk! I know the image has been posted on another thread but I thought that it would fit quite well into this thread. Zainab posted a sneak peek of the actual Monzo debit card (after some lucky people got a ‘flash’ last night at the open office)! The image just kinda confirms what we already knew but I admit I had a little fist bump!
