Say hey to Double Payday 🎉

Out of interest, how “early” did you request your money?

It was 5pm by the time I got around to doing it, and even though I still had to wait a few minutes for my pennies, the button was there once I got paid (Android beta app).

I’m wondering if you were an early bird and requested pretty much at 4pm, if the massive amount of requests somehow caused the button to not show.

16:27 for me - so not too early, but within the first 30 minutes of the get paid early feature being enabled. It’s a mystery…!

I did the get-paid-early thing, then the app prompted me to check if I’d won straight away so I checked (I didn’t win).

If it’s not patched this payday it can just go back to Lloyds.

Nope.

I use pay early, so can only enter every alternate month.

It’s a shame they didnt consider people who use pay early.

I feel i’m getting unecessarily anxious each time I press it month on month, no win again.

I really want to see someone who as won.

Anyone regularly perusing Monzo’s reddit will get that one

Edit: sorry they go by u/1p-Challenge-Scam now, seems they got sick of being tagged in every second comment after Monzo revealed the winner and changed their username :joy:

Nope, not me

Was desperately hoping to win this month and it’s the month I get paid my annual bonus! I knew it was never going to happen but you can’t blame me for hoping!

I know what that says, but someone may have noticed if it changed.

Monzo aren’t the quickest with updates, customers usually find out first.
