I received a push notification on the app (and an email) encouraging me to “Grab hold of life with a Monzo loan”.
I can’t be the only person to think this is completely inappropriate. I’m well aware that Monzo offers loans but I don’t want the app to push notify me and encourage this. Not to mention that I think for most people taking out a loan is a sub-optimal scenario - not exactly ‘grab hold of life’ type activity.
Most banks push loans, in fact for months I’ve been dismissing the message from Barclays that I’ve been pre-approved for a £50k loan which pops up on the home screen or in between transactions every time I open the app. Not to mention I don’t have enough disposable income to pay back £50k without interest let alone with.
A push notification and email does not sound great though but shouldn’t happen if you don’t have lending promotions turned on
