Roman Numerals - We’ve just updated Monzo to replace numbers with roman numerals. Annoyed your bank balance of £10,000 won’t fit on the screen? Now it’s just X
And if you upgrade to Plus, you get it in binary!
Get neighed early - a horse animation just before your pay
Can we have Monzo plus today please and take my money
Temporary cards - you asked for virtual cards for security. Monzo will now deactivate and replace your physical card after every purchase, helping you to think hard before you spend anything.
Forget Loans introducing Groans. Instead of lending you Money we will take money from your account and charge you interest for doing so.
How would Monzo’s UI react to having a balance of M̅M̅M̅M̅M̅M̅M̅M̅?
Also suggested in that same meeting:
Get Weighed Early (for the fitness fanatics and dieters)
Get Trade Early (for business accounts)
Get Glade Early (for those who want a fresher smelling home?)
Get Maid Early (for those who have a cleaner)
Get “Hey”'d Early (for anyone who likes informal greetings)
Get Hay’d Early (to go with get Neighed early)
Get Spayed Early (for the responsible pet owners)
You missed Get Laid Early (for tinder fanatics not wanting the chat)
Potholes
Overspent on your bills this month? Get an instant loan to cover the gap and tarmac you over until payday.
Well if we’re just doing dadjokes, let me give you my apalling thread from Feb:
Quark Mode, where everything is made of cheese
Freeze bills - stops all outgoings and links to both phone app (auto-forwards all predicted incoming calls from associated vendor(s) to voicemail) and email app (sends all emails from vendor(s) domain to junk)
Pain in the App - vibrates horrendously when a payment is made. Even harder when the phone is in your back pocket.
Spots. Like pots, but they’re only available to the 16-18 age group, and once you get them you can’t get rid of them; they’ll just disappear overnight.
Bill’s Pot, the stoner companion to a bills pot. But only for Bill
Get Paid Surly. You get your wages early, but the app won’t be happy about it.
Wet Paid Early. If it Rains you get paid.
Wet Maid Surly… I think thats a different app
It was only when Get Made Early was suggested, was he told to furrgeddaboutit.
We give you dad jokes up front but you’ve got to come back to us with 3 more in a month’s time
Tie in with Happy Days, rebrand as Fonzo. Theme tune plays when you open the app, sound of an incoming payment changed to Fonzie saying ayyyy.
