Can I do it subsequently?

After you’ve opened your account? No, only new folk. If that’s what you meant anyway.

Managed to use any transfer into my account for salary sorter, of same value and it actually moved all the funds as expected automatically during the trial.


The salary sort option is visible on any inbound payment to your account.

Impressed.

You can also schedule withdrawals from Savings and Pockets to any account type.

Interest rates aren’t great, but at least with all your money in Savings you have FSCS cover, and schedule the funds to come out on bills day.

I think there has been a very slight change to the Revolut home page (or I might be making it up haha!)

Exchange is gone and replaced with Move and Details appears to have a new icon.
Very minor changes mind you but I always seem to recognise the small changes :slight_smile:

Yeah I noticed that this morning.

Some shocker numbers.

62% of revolut reimbursements from Meta!

It is crazy, and needs so much work. Maybe even a regulatory obligation for Meta to refund the bank if they have to pay out on the back of social media :crossed_fingers:t3:

Most stories will be either buying something on social media or someone offering to buy something from them, and they use engineering tactics “oh I’ll send a courier as I’m out of town or in hospital”, “oh to auth the payment you need to just add your details to this form to release it” bla bla.

Whenever I’ve sold something on marketplace and people ask, I always make a point I won’t deliver and it’s cash in hand only, they suddenly disappear :joy:

Tried to sell a phone on FB Marketplace, someone started all that courier nonsense. Told them I’d be willing to drive six hours to Birmingham to deliver it myself and for some unknown reason they were no longer interested.

Honestly, you try to do a criminal a favour and you get NO thanks for it.

How did you manage with this. Did you get charged any hefty fee?

I can’t find the option to buy gift cards any more under the Lifestyle section, has this been quietly removed? :disappointed:

Doesn’t look possible. Do the merchants show in shops to get cashback instead?

No, sadly not.
Looks like it’s gone completely - shame as there were some good discounts on there.
Seems to be replaced with 'get multiples of RevPoints) with select merchants instead

Revpoints basically killed me looking for any perks in Revolut, the way they’re managed having to set up cashback to Revpoints is eww…

I don’t want to “buy” Revpoints!

Agreed… Some of the decent perks (for Metal) - reasonable cashback rates on Stays, decent discounts on eGift cards, cashback on online purchases in Shops are just not there anymore, not to mention the loss of the card purchase cashback (not massive amounts, but when all these are added together you could cover the subscription fee, I could anyway).

RevPoints has replaced all of it, which on the face of it isn’t a bad scheme per se, but the value is definitely much lower than before.

You also have to be careful redeeming points.
If you redeem too many at once you are penalised on their value - and if you collect points by round up - buying them (I don’t) you may end up getting less value than you paid for them.
And if you book through Stays - way less value - than you did before via cashback

For Revolut Ultra, I cancelled within the 14 cooldown period. I think I was charged some fee for the Ultra card can’t remember the exact amount.

For Monzo Premium I cancelled when they swapped the insurance company so I was able to keep the metal card.

Is your Ultra Card still thriving and usable after the downgrade.

Just had a look over the transaction list so I was charged ~ÂŁ67 :sweat_smile:

And as Carlo mentioned, cards will remain active after downgrade.
