I suspect this is why you don’t see pots appearing when you don’t have any, and not more upgrade ads.
I think you can ignore easily because you’re not the target market for these things, but for those who are it’s a wildly inappropriate form of advertising.
You cannot just ignore a fake account created on your banking app.
Well not necessarily. You can have everything go through Monzo and just not have pots and have a savings pot pop up.
I suspect it was the “All easily ignored ” that gives the impression that people complaining could just ignore it. Just because it’s not affecting you doesn’t mean it’s not affecting everyone else. I suspect.
Full Monzo - personal account on Extra with salary paid in, joint account heavily used to organise all joint finances and savings, Flex, (also Business paid plan), standard pots, instant access savings pots, third party savings pots and ISA.
And getting intrusive ads to upgrade, invest and (yesterday) refer friends.
Out of interest is it a performance thing or something more? I use it a lot for when I need to go to London Town and find it very, very decent. Especially at Euston to avoid the wacky races.
Awful app (on the occasions I used it, which admittedly is a while ago), booking fees (f right off), and when things went wrong awful customer service that left me out of pocket.
The proposed end of franchises might mean I one day have to use it, but for the moment I’ll avoid it.
Fair enough. Not to derail inadvertently but have to say the opposite for me. My only gripe is even with background app refresh turned off if still hammers the battery.
In the one instance where Avanti cancelled I was automatically told how to submit a refund for the full amount.
Back to topic the Trainline thing isn’t very useful (to me) so another reason why the perks don’t work (to me)
Basically if you don’t live in one of those the new perks are not for you.
The nearest Greggs is about 20-25 minutes away depending on which direction I go
EDIT: By the way, the main reason I don’t is because the paid for travel insurance is lacklustre compared to other paid offerings, and more importantly far worse than the free one Premier offers.
Well, clearly there wasn’t. I nearly flagged it, but luckily I’m actually quite a nice guy. Sarcasm intended or not I would suggest you consider how it might be read.
I actually enjoyed the first part of the post and I agree with what you put. But also city life isn’t for everyone.
I think we can leave that there and move on, have nice evening
