It depends if they need to do any additional checks. It has only been 3 days max so just be patient and I’m sure they’ll get back to you soon 🙂

We’re all customers on here by the way, so you won’t get an answer from Monzo directly.

Sounds like they are doing “additional” checks but mine was open in under 30 minutes.
