I Cass out before and they gave me an account again had to email to get email/phone cleared etc and then was rejected but emailed asking for a review and they opened me one up which I’m glad as now full monzo and loving the new features
Edit. They was even kind enough to give me my beta and investor badges back in the app!
Cause you’d rather have TSB account that sometimes locks out, sometimes doesn’t show correct balances, and sometimes shows other people’s account data?
I mean, out of all the choices… TSB is not a good one.
To be honest it’s something like 3 months or more and I’ve been back and forth with Monzo staff getting my case sent to specialists, told to uninstall and retry and then it declines again, then I’m told to do it again and let them know if there are any issues etc. Must have applied 5 times by now!
Have you been contacting them via the normal help@monzo email or a different one? I remember at some point someone mentioned a different email address for appeals/reviews of decisions but can’t remember what it was.
Just in case anyone one else has a similar situation.
Well I’m not going to just say “oh I give up” when it’s been a continuous email thread with specialists. It doesn’t take much time out of my day to do what they’re asking, I’m hardly sat up at night waiting for Monzo to sort it out.
It’s not exactly good for this to take so long but at the same time I am an investor, I’ve been with Monzo since the beginning and I use/used Monzo a lot with friends and with my partner and housemates.
If any other company did that I’d not just be complaining to them and never using them but making a complaint to the ombudsman, but maybe I’m just uptight. 5 attempts to open an account is ridiculous, technical issues or no.
Yes, exactly. That’s why I would do what I would do. If I was told ‘try again’ and it failed a third time, that would be my (mental) evidence that the bank didn’t want me as a customer. After about the third time it’s wasting my time and theirs, so I’d have to call a halt to it at 4 or 5 under the presumption that, as you say, I’m not wanted as a customer. Which in itself would be perfectly fine, but not after 5 failed attempts due to the technology not working properly. My view is a personal one I appreciate and others may feel differently as I tried to suggest previously.
