I agree Monzo plus doesn’t add anything. But just to point out that I wouldn’t get Revolut either, because its mainly packaged insurance.
Packaged insurance is generally worse for consumers. Either its more expensive, or it doesn’t cover everything you need (sometimes both!). There’s really no such thing as ‘one size fits all’ insurance, people are better shopping around for their exact requirements.
Personally I’ve never liked these features as bank account add ons and it’s slightly disappointing to see Monzo - normally an innovator - to just copy what all the other banks offer (but then somehow do it much worse).
Lots of very disappointed people here and in the other topic too, so it would be nice to hear something a little more comprehensive since there wasn’t anything in their last update.
Perhaps @simonb can give them a nudge? to come on here and address everyones concerns and be a bit more consistent with updates like the New Nav Team.
Am I missing something…? On the Monzo Plus webpage, it talks about Travel insurance and Travel money, as though they are available now… however I can’t find it in the app? I don’t want to add it, but I’m curious if they haven’t made it available to everyone yet. If that’s the case, I don’t think that’s right.
Still showing for me on Android. If I wasn’t on the £3 a month offer which is paid for with the interest I earn I woukd also be annoyed at the current offering.
I subscribed in the hope that there woukd be future offerings. Priority needs to be allowing existing Plustomers to add features.

The access to the ‘Monzo Plus/Manage’ display is working OK for me (Android), but the ‘Exclusive Monzo Plus card’ and ‘Access to exclusive events’ items do nothing if tapped on. I tapped on the ‘Exclusive Monzo Plus card’ item 2-3 days ago and it went into the midnight/lagoon/coral card request flow - so something is definitely changing.
