If you wanted to withdraw funds from your credit card, could you make a payment to yourself via your own Monzo.me link to avoid the credit card providers cash advance fees/rates? Have they caught onto this?
Probably. Iād assume that this is why there is a limit 
The limit is because it costs Monzo money - also the reason why debit card topups were stopped.
The limit could be there for both reasons? 
For obvious reasons theyād never mention or allude that you can avoid credit card fees by using monzo.me
Oh of course, I was more looking for other peoples experiences. I wouldnāt dream of an employee to say you can get around things by x, y and z
The last I heard, you canāt use a credit card to pay with Monzo.me, it acceptās debit cards only. It would make a great loophole otherwise though!

My understanding was also ādebit card onlyā although Iāve never tried topersonally prove the rule.

I just did a test and can confirm Itās debit cards only!
Iād like to see the possibility for credit cards to be usedā¦ but with a fee attached maybe? Itās a great way for people to pay you, maybe you sold an item?
It be way down on the list of āthings to doā as you can just use paypal, or just do a BACS.
You canāt pay directly with a credit card.
You can pay monzo.me, Starling settle up, dozens topups, even Loot topups, with a Curve card, but Curve now passes the MCC through, so itās up to your credit card to decide whether to treat it as a cash advance - some do, some donāt. It seems that Tesco and Natwest, for example, treat it as cash.
You can top up Revolut with a credit card, but there are reports of Revolut then querying transfers of funds, so it may not be very reliable.

Can confirm. Used 3 different credit cards through Curve to top up Monzo and they all went through!
