How does Trust Levels work on the Forum, do they go up and down?
I’m only asking because I keep bouncing between Level 2 and Level 3 
Yes they go up and down.
It depends on the quality of content you post and activity.
Read the differences between each level below, but bear in mind that Monzo might have tweaked them and they’ve certainly added new ones such as Coral Crew.

Thanks for that
I used to spend a lot of time on Reddit, the Monzo Community is honestly a much better place to be reading through IMO

Reddit has become a very volatile place since it became popular
Agreed, Monzo has a nice small community on reddit, the other thing thats fustrating with Reddit is that the auto-mods delete all your threads unless they are correctly “flaired” and have “relevancy”. You cant really have big discussions on the bigger communities
All the Coral Crew are in charge of moderating this community, if you flag a post it does get looked at pretty quickly, I don’t think volunteer mods would be an option considering its a community for a Bank and not ran by the community if that makes sense,
However, as you gain trust level you start to get more actions or powers from what i read on the link above, I used to be Level 3 but now i dropped down to Level 2 
Edit: Coral Crew are Volunteer Mods

The Coral Crew are volunteer mods. They’re not paid anything by Monzo.

Oh, that i did not know, thanks for correcting me on that @HoldenCarver
Quick question for you, do you get any extra powers in the Community with the Crowdfunding Investor tag?
No. Just the tag.

Trust Level 4 is the Coral Crew, basically?
And Monzo Staff.
Unless I am wrong on that!

Level 4 is Coral Crew, you are correct.
After Level 1 (Noob), you become:
Level 2 - Member. After more interraction, you are boosted to:
Level 3 - Regular. And if you’re not regular (!) enough, you drop to Level 2
Level 4 - Leader (or Coral Crew on this forum)

That’s what I thought, and a nice summary.
Thanks for confirming!
I have had a Monzo account since 2016 but, for a long time, I resisted joining the community as I felt sure that I would quickly get addicted to checking it and posting and therefore waste too much time! Eventually, of course, I did cave in and while I do enjoy getting involved I am, true to form and as suspected, at Trust Level 3.
I take that as something to be proud of, but it does also show how much time I must be spending here!

PS: You forgot Level 0: totally new user
I suppose you could say ultra-noob?
I don’t think the Monzo forum uses level 1 (or doesn’t use level 0, one of them)
The forum admins can set certain things to be available or not, etc. The ‘Poll Master’ Badge is a good example of this - that badge isn’t on every discourse-based forum, it’s a custom job.

Now you’ve got me @Dunsford!
I am collecting a fair few badges, but I don’t have that one yet as I haven’t even been a member for a year (and I won’t get it on my 1 year anniversary either as I have missed a handful of days, I think).

Oh yes. There’s only 72 of us. That’s a small enough number for a prize.
[Gulp] I’ve been here since Oct '17.

I think you were right first time, apologies!
Looking at my badges, I think there is a level 1 but not a level 0?
