Using Monzo For Large Purchases

Monzo Chat
1

Hi guys.
Been using Monzo for 3 months now and have had no problems.

I’m considering getting a new TV for christmas ( £400 from curries )
Would this be ok or can i not use Monzo for large purchases ?

Thanks

It’s a bank account, use it like any other bank account

your account has limits you can check in app, and if its over the limit (car) a quick chat with support should help

If you have a credit card though, that’s always the preferred way to buy large items for the protection it gives you.

I’m interested to hear why you’d think Monzo wouldn’t be OK for large purchases

Be a worry if this is a widespread view or not…? :man_shrugging:

A “large purchase” in Monzo’s eyes is generally over £10,000 (Although check your settings to be sure of your limits).

No need to worry about restrictions for £400 Some people spend that on dinner and drinks :fork_and_knife: :cocktail:

I never made a large transaction before and wanted to know if there’s a limit

To add to this. @chistery is referring to section 75 protection. Here’s a description

Monzo cards, and debit cards in general benefit from a similar protection called Chargeback, although unlike Section 75, there’s no legal requirement for the card provider to provide Chargeback protection.

Limits in app for Android

Account / settings (cox) / daily limits

Its all the different limits for the account
