Introducing new perks on Monzo Perks and Max 🍿🚇🚕▶️ [YouTube Premium Lite just added!]

I get that, but how often are you going to be looking at that specifically.

As often as I check the app because Connected Accounts. :sweat_smile:

Doesn’t this depend on the lamp type? LED lamps don’t really get hot in my experience

The clash of colours is a tad jarring

They definitely have some umph to them; I’ve had fairly old pasties that you could tell had been slightly warmed.

They’ll be as warm as they can be without breaching the (stupid) VAT laws.

Thanks David, I assumed so but we live in hope. Perhaps we’ll get a Joint Account update :soon_arrow: :winking_face_with_tongue:

First post but thought I would explain why I’ve moved over to Perks.

I’ve had Monzo since 2018 and only in the last month signed up to Perks. Main benefit was Uber One as the 10% train cashback is saving me £20 a month, but also wanted to simplify my finances as I had loads of DDs coming out of Starling, main income into Chase and savings in Santander.

I appreciate the Vue ticket as it’s the best cinema near us with all recliner chairs, and the Greggs is great but definitely an unhealthy benefit.

Only reason I haven’t gone for Max is that Santander offer 6% interest on their Edge Saver if you have the package account, plus their insurance products seem a bit better.

If this ‘Monzo One’ account came out I would consider it but currently have EE £16 a month with unlimited data and EU roaming, so would be paying £4 more for global roaming.

This is one of the main perks but I’m I’m Scotland and it’s not eligible here.

A good alternative would be a tastecard or something.

I’d like a free first class flight per month.

Trains are full of common folk.

£9 for perks :distorted_face:

Looks to be adding YouTube which I didn’t spot.

App still showing £7 for me. Maybe it’ll be pushed tomorrow?

That’s good value actually. Especially if it includes the YT Music Premium.

It’ll likely be YouTube Premium Lite which still includes some adverts and no YouTube Music.

Still not a bad deal though as YT Lite is £7.99 on it’s own

YouTube & some AI logo too showing on the perks section on the main site! :eyes:

It’s fairly poor form to advertise something that doesn’t yet exist…

Unless this is another A/B test. Monzo do love them.

Confirmed, it’s YouTube Lite - you can see it mentioned in the privacy policy here:

When people say “less ads” what are we talking? How often?

looking at the YouTube help:

Sooooo everything but music :melting_face:

It would be worth trialing I suppose. I’ve been full YouTube Premium for years now and I quite literally use it every day for hours so no ads is important to me.

I do use it for music but not half as often.
