I can’t remember this happening before but at least recently the categories for Morrisons supermarket and Morrisons Petrol seems to get mixed up e.g if I last shopped at Morrisons Petrol and I set the category to transport when I next shop at Morrisons supermarket the category comes up as transport too and vice versa.
Is there a way this can’t be separated? The full name of the merchant at least mentions one is petrol.
What do you see on the transaction detail page at the very bottom? If both come up as “Morrissons” I don’t think Monzo has any data to be able to tell the difference.
Thanks for the reply. The full merchant name does mention petrol for the petrol station i.e. ‘WM Morrisons Petrol’ so they should be able to tell the difference.
This has been annoying me slightly for several months now. From a user perspective it looks like an easy fix since the data is there but I’m sure Monzo are aware of it and they haven’t fixed it yet for some reason. Would be interesting to get some background on the difficulties…
Agree with @GalaxyMergirl that Monzo should refer to the distinctive MCC over and above what is stated in text in the merchant name. All automated fuel dispensers SHOULD have a different MCC so if they do not that is wrong and needs feeding back to MasterCard so action can be taken to rectify the problem
I queried this last week for two seperate Sainsburys petrol / groceries transactions in the same location - C.ops have now been able to separate the transactions for me from a Sainsburys PFS 0085 code for fuel and a Sainsburys 0605 store code now coming up as groceries - hopefully this will now be recognised in any subsequent transactions at this Sainsburys ???
Just checked and I’ve got it in the App Store version as well so not just a beta thing. Kinda disappointed by it, I would’ve loved to be able to change it manually but still want the “Monzo blue” to be the default as it fit perfectly within the rest of the app.
Ah, so it just identifies what the merchant does. I guess that’s how credit card companies categorise a cash advance transaction at gambling companies then?
