Anyone got a space code? I would like to check them out while I wait for Monzoā€¦

Daniel - why donā€™t you just get a golden ticket for Monzo rather than waiting - get your Monzo card in a couple of days ?

Ah saying that, I was more meaning about the current account side of things.

Bruce, mind sharing your pass with me instead?

If anyone has a pass, Iā€™d love one too please!

I think he meant it was quick to use my pass rather than he had another :frowning: sorry

Iā€™m guessing multiple email sign ups

As I was handed one I didnā€™t need my original

Can I ask why everyone is wanting passes - just to check out the competition? Iā€™d like to be given a run down about Starling, but donā€™t want to open another bank account just to check it out.

Just to check out the competition :slight_smile:

Monzoā€™s app still has lots more features & I donā€™t see Starling catching up anytime soon. And I donā€™t need Starlingā€™s standard bank account features because I can handle my direct debits etc. using my legacy bank account, without any issues.

I am needing to change my bank account and Monzo are not offering yet, Ultimately I will end up here, but want a short term solution

I donā€™t get why folks want a very short term option. Youā€™ve ladted however many years with your current bank but canā€™t wait a few more months. Bizarre.

Not only that, but if youā€™re going to continue to use Monzo for most of your day to day spendingā€¦ well Iā€™m just miffed!

They also run a credit check on you regardless of if you want an overdraft (the way I read it anyway). And opening new current accounts in short succession is going to look strange on your credit report.

But what do I know.

To be clear, itā€™s a soft check when you open the account & only a hard check if you apply for an overdraft though -

I have had issue with my current account holder which has resulted in complaint. I want to close my accounts with them. I donā€™t feel I have faith in any of the high street banks. Hence my desire of Monzo.

But why have the hassle of moving twice, when you could merely wait a few more months?
