whats happened like? i'm about to dump over £2k onto mine before i go to new york. was going to take out the fee free $250, use contacless as much as possible, and take a hit on the 2% ATM fee after that, as its still much cheaper than drawing from my debit card

i'm useless with stuff like this. i dont want to exchange my £2k at a low rate as it could make $100 difference within a few days of the rates fluctuating. or am i looking at it wrong?



ok, i know fuck all about money like. i know loads about other things though

I think you're right. I never take much cash out so it's not something I've experienced anyway.

Revolut have had shit loads of problems lately, hope no one on here has been caught up in their outages! I feel guilty. :lol:

Never had any bother. Just got some euros for about 1.13 to the pound yesterday :)

Hi has anyone off here used Revolut, and did they find it any good?

Their rates seem very good compared to the banks.

Is it possible to transfer money from a foreign bank account to a U.K. bank account on their system? It's not clear from their website and I didn't want to download their app unless I'm actually gonna use it..

Any help appreciated, thanks.

I use Revolut Premium (about £6 a month) as I use it a lot for Foreign Account Transfers which are free for Premium users.
Lloyds used to charge me about £20 per FX transaction so Revolut Premium is excellent for that.
If you just want to transfer money to UK accounts from your normal Revolut account then that is free (Revolut Premium not needed)
Revolut Premium allows free ATM withdrawals abroad up to £400 (£200 max with normal Revolut).

I use the Halifax card for non euro stuff, really pleased with it. I use Transferwise for moving larger amounts between UK & French Euro account then pay using either my French bank card or Clarity depending on the spot rate when travelling in the eurozone.

Revolut went down in NYC when our lass was in the Disney store. Had nee benk either. I was in the pub but somehow got the blame for a worldwide system failure.
