Not me thoughā¦
I notice that I still get the message at an ATM saying that the ācard issuer might make a charge - so you wish to continue?ā
I thought this was going to vanish with the use of the Current Account debit cards - or will this be the case when the final cards are issued as Iām aware the nameless ones are temporary?
Iād consider that a bug so itās worth reporting via the in-app chat.
Iām curious to hear what the teamās answer is
OK thanks - will do - will post anything I hear.
Been told it is something that might happen with the first generation debit card - and something hoping to be fixed with the new versionsā¦
Correct.
For a touch of insider info, the very first debit cards we gave out (with the older Mastercard logo and the same chip as the beta) do not have our custom chip settings.
If anybody reading this has one of the newer cards, check out this thread.
I really hope this happens soon! Iāve not been able to get down to London.
Are any of the :mondo: team able to comment on when this is likely to come to fruition?
When I got my card Iām sure I was told that they would be able to post cards out after theyād ironed out any bugs in the validation process.
Weāre testing it now and will continue to do so in small-ish numbers in August. In September, weāre aiming to roll out about 15k cards through the post.
Amazing! Is the testing internal or is it small amount of public sign ups?
When are the next batch of invites due to be sent out?
I just got an invitation for the current account. Will be going to set it up on Tuesdayā¦ Woohoo!!
I just got an invite today so about now I guess. Mine is the android app.
If you use Android and iOS, can you use both once you get the current account?
Yes, Iāve heard from another user that, thatās what theyāre doing.
That replicates the behavior of the prepaid app.
Is it just investors being invited at the moment? As a few people I know of havenāt invested yet been invited and now have current accounts.
I was under the impression it was be investors first?
Nope Itās not just investors at the moment - I canāt find the post that described how the preview was going to be managedā¦ But iirc investors have some sort of priority but not exclusivity
I.e. Iāve been invited next Tuesday and Iām not a successful investor (I did try though )
Must of missed he post where they pulled the investors will be first to the current account. Bit pissed at that as that was part of the reason behind investing for the second time.
Hold that thought Iāll just find you the post from the team that explains whatās happening here..
Edit
Here you go -
Also, even the press arenāt being given special access to the preview
