- custom monzo username

Are these things that you want or are you mistakenly thinking that this is what is offered on Monzo Plus 
are they not?
No, not even close

ok well i take it back then
But it seems you need to pay 3£ going up to £6 + and extra £3 if you want £400 of travel withdrawals.
Thats 9£ a month for something that Starling gives for free, to everyone. In fact theirs is unlimited, not just an extra £200

Maybe they will offer it for free 
but you’re cherry picking one part of one optional service. It’s still very much a work in progress too, which is why you can’t sign up 
I’m sure Starling offset the free withdrawals by adding hidden charges or something elsewhere. It’s something that is hopefully changing soon so banks have to be more transparent and we can make better like for like comparisons 
Also just noticed there’s a Monzo Plus app icon now

It depends on which card you choose too

Wonder if they are getting samples from all thier card manufactures to test out or if only 1 is doing plus cards
We’re definitely looking at the quality of the cards!

Really? Perhaps they have a model where that works and they don’t have to charge for cash abroad for current account holders
Not wishing to get back into the forum game, or open up old conversations about who does what, but Starling make their money through banking services and business accounts (amongst other things). There are no hidden costs involved (although there are potentially steep costs if you want a card shipping abroad).
I personally don’t think it’s right to hold Monzo up as a moral compass on “transparency” and “like for like” comparisons, because it very much depends on what side of the fence you are sitting, and how you perceive things

Print wise my card is pretty poor… my new card features the Monzo logo being printed in a fairly blurry way and the white tipping already slightly rubbed off in transit. £36 for a blurry card.
After a year of use, my old card looks more premium than this does. 
I’ve also noticed that the Mastercard logo has a dark black/green bleed around the logo that my original card doesn’t…

Need to work on that FOMO
Got my plus invite earlier and signed up.
Didn’t get an investor card before as my card was fine. Contactless has been a bit temperamental the last few weeks so was considering ordering a new card anyway.
Trying to decide on which URL because the one I really wanted was rejected for being inappropriate 
Will just keep the one I’ve already got for now
I’d better get stickers
