I’ve recently been in encounters where I required someone to transfer to me above the £100 limit and usually if it’s below that they always use that link but lately it’s made it more difficult to transfer over, therefore I feel other people must have at least been in the same boat once
The limit is there because it costs them to provide this service, therefore it’s unlikely to be risen.
Also…
So in short, use a bank transfer if it’s a lot of money
Would this be a good plus or premium feature?
It’s quite frustrating to not be able to split larger bills but it’s not something everyone needs.
I agree it’ll be great for a plus feature
From the customer’s point of view, yes. But if it is to protect against money laundering, I’d guess it would still be a ‘no’ from Monzo.
Even if they only allowed 5 over £100 transactions a year on other plans that would suit most legitimate uses and make it less desirable for money laundering.
I remember I offered to sort a Go Karting trip in the good old days when such things were allowed thinking it would be easy to charge everyone.
If you’re so keen to do it this way, just do it multiple times?
It keeps the transaction feed more accurate and easy to check if all of the payments back are tied to the original transaction.
It doesn’t allow you to do it multiple times In a row sadly I tried it once as either you hit the limit or the other persons bank will block it as suspected fraud on the 3/4th time also just easier in one as you’ll know what it’s for
Just get them to withdraw the cash issue fixed
Don’t do what this person is suggesting because you’ll run the risk of exceeding your cash deposit limits. I’d also recommend avoiding cash given the current pandemic too.
I received the notification it was to my post… Odd.
I’ve deleted my comment now to give the benefit of doubt
This particular over-cautiousness has been found to be unnecessary.
It’s £500 per card
Thanks for this
In any case, low risk or not, a bank transfer is the better solution to this problem. It also saves the person having to travel, meet and collect the cash - then take that to travel and meet with people again
to deposit it at Paypoint location.
Stay safe at home, pop the kettle on and have it electronically sent directly into your in account in a fraction of the time. Job done
Don’t say the ‘c’ word on here, that’s another controversial subject
Wait so it’s only £500 a month and £1000 every 6 months? I think I’ve definitely received over that within 6 months
Yup, that’s correct.
The £1000 per 6 months is for cash deposits.
I agree, bank transfer all the way. If the OP a has another bank account, they could always set up Paym on that account?
