I opened a UK Monzo account while I was studying in the UK for two years. I have been back in the US for a year now and don’t really have a need for my UK account. I am wondering if it is worth just closing the UK account to join the US beta? Or since I’m already a Monzo user will I have to wait as it mentions on the Eventbright page for the launch event (see below)?
Thanks!
If you’re a US resident then that’s probably your best bet.
Though might want to check with Monzo direct that you don’t end up with neither (i.e. a closed UK account still blocks a US account)
Are you sure that screenshot implies that having a UK account means you aren’t able to get into the US launch at all? I read it as ‘you might have a UK account but you still have to wait for a launch event in the US to get an account there’ 
The lack of “but come along and have our free beer anyway!” said to me that the invite is only extended to those who are going to open a beta account, but at the very best it is ambiguous
I signed up for the Santa Monica event and there was a question asking if you have a UK account, so who knows. I suppose I will find out at the event 
Good luck. Hope you get to go along
