When I try to split a bill with a contact who is also a favourite, the checkbox next to their name is selected twice. Once under favourites and once under all contacts. The bill is then split 3 ways and the other person receives 2 payment requests.
If you try to deselect either checkbox both are unticked.
Details to reproduce: Select split this bill. Select a contact who is a favourite. OS: Android 13 / samsung 5.1 Device: s23 Ultra App Version: 5.18.0
I’ve determined it’s because the contact name doesn’t match the monzo name exactly so you can workaround the issue by updating the contact to match.
Still, this is a recently introduced bug and needs rectifying.
Same issue! I use bill splits and shared tab all the time and with this same person. I’ve not added a new contact, nothing has changed, but the last 2 days i select one person to split the bill with and monzo automatically selects two contacts which is essentially the same person, and then splits the bill by 3 and not two. I have to manually remove one of the contacts each time.
Just adding my name to the pile - a recent update must have caused this. Didn’t happen before, nothing changed, but now favourite contacts show up twice when splitting a bill.
Has everyone checked to be sure the person’s number isn’t stored twice in their phone? Some phones like to duplicate (home and mobile for example).
Same for me. It started doing this around 2 weeks ago. My wife has the same issue on her phone too.
If I split anything with her, it selects the “contacts” version of her and the “Monzo” version of her, hence it tries to split the bill 3 ways.
