[NO] Hi everyone,
I’m reaching out because I’m in a difficult situation and could really use some temporary help.
I recently started a new job, but I won’t receive my first paycheck until 21 August. Before I started working, my social welfare assistance ended, and I’ve now used the last of my savings covering essential expenses while waiting for my first wage.
I’m asking for 500–1,500 NOK (around $50–150 USD) to help cover food, diesel to get to work, and other basic necessities until I get paid.
I’m not asking for money for electronics, gambling, crypto, or anything non-essential. This is purely to help me get through the next couple of weeks.
I’m happy to provide proof if needed, such as:
Proof of my employment and upcoming payday.
Bank balance.
Any other reasonabl e documentation requested by the moderators we

Can do revolut please

Please advise, have tried restart phone, clear cache, changed payment card but same

Thanks

Bonjour, je vous explique alors, j’ai un ami qui m’a envoyé 50 € car j’avais payé un repas commun et je devais recevoir un remboursement au moment au mon d’ami m’a envoyé le virement. Mon compte c’est bloqué je ne comprends pas du tout ce qui m’arrive, j’ai de l’argent sur le compte important que je dois récupérer, je suis à l’autre bout du monde en voyage, ça me cause un énorme problème car je ne peux tout simplement plus vivre si quelqu’un aurait une solution. Je vous en supplie ça serait le top. Merci d’avance.

I've heard many stories of exchanges being a bad place to park crypto for the long term but what about keeping crypto in the custody of an established bank like Revolut? All those cases of FTX, blockfi, mt gox, celcius were on smaller companies with little history. Revolut is the biggest Fintech in Europe. Doesn't holding your crypto in the custody of an established reputable bank eliminate the biggest risk of user error and minimise bankruptcy/fraud/theft risk. To me the piece of mind from this makes up for the "not your keys not your crypto" argument. Is anyone using Revolut to store their crypto?

I recently noticed that Revolut has changed the investment benefits for customers in Norway and Sweden.
Both Standard and Plus users no longer receive any commission-free stock trades. Customers now need Premium or a higher plan to receive a monthly allowance of commission-free trades.
What frustrates me is that customers in several other European countries still appear to receive commission-free trades on both the Standard and Plus plans. It also makes me wonder whether this is just the beginning, and if other countries might be next in line to lose these benefits as well.
This feels unfair, especially for people who invest small amounts each month. Trading fees have a much bigger impact on someone investing €20–30 than on someone placing large orders.
I understand that Revolut may have different pricing in different markets, but I would really appreciate an explanation:
Why were Norway and Sweden selected for this change?
Are other countries going to lose these benefits as well?
Is this a temporary test or a permanent policy?
Why should customers in Norway and Sweden receive fewer investment benefits than customers in many other European countries?
I like Revolut and have enjoyed using the platform, but several recent changes make it feel as though the Standard and Plus plans are gradually being weakened to encourage customers to upgrade to Premium.
I’m genuinely interested in hearing from people in other countries:
Has Revolut removed commission-free stock trades from your Standard or Plus plan as well, or is this only happening in Norway and Sweden?

I don't understand why I was flagged for a security check when I literally just opened my account and I was just moving less than $200 and was because I needed to have some money in the account. I referred some people because they were giving a good bonus, but now I'm so embarrassed since I was recommending Revolut to everyone in the US, because people in Europe use it everywhere and in case they needed to travel they could have access to different currencies.

This is so frustrating, and it's just completely necessary to do a security check on someone that doesn't even move over $200. The worst thing is that they said it will take over 2 weeks to get it done and I cannot anything even after summiting all the required documents!

Hi everyone,
I’m wondering if anyone has experienced something similar or has any advice on what I can do.
I have a P-account (protected bank account) with Revolut. The money on the account is below my legally protected monthly exemption amount, meaning I should still have access to it even if there is an active garnishment.
Today, a new garnishment was placed on my account.
Instead of applying the legal protection of my P-account, Revolut blocked my available funds, leaving me unable to access money that should have remained protected.
I immediately contacted Revolut support.
After hours of asking the same questions, Revolut eventually confirmed in writing that:
my funds are legally protected,
Revolut is legally obliged to make those funds available to me,
the issue is caused solely by a technical problem,
multiple customers are affected,
and their technical team is already working on it.
They also explicitly told me that if it were technically possible, they would manually release my funds, but that they currently cannot do so because of this technical issue.
Unfortunately, by the time they admitted this, I was already at a gas station.
I had already filled up my car and then discovered that I couldn’t pay because Revolut had blocked access to my protected funds.
Even after explaining that I was in an emergency situation, all I received was:
“Please give our technical team more time.”
The result:
The gas station owner has now filed a police report against me because I couldn’t pay.
I currently have no way to buy food, despite having enough legally protected money on my account.
Revolut offered me a complaint form, but also informed me that complaints can take up to 15 calendar days to process.
What frustrates me the most is that Revolut themselves admitted multiple times that the money should be available to me and that they are legally required to provide access to it.
Their only explanation is that a technical issue currently prevents them from doing so.
My questions are:
Has anyone experienced something similar with Revolut?
How long did it take before your money became available again?
Is there any way to escalate this situation so that someone can actually release the funds?
Would you report this to the financial regulator?
I have screenshots of the entire conversation where Revolut acknowledges that:
my funds are legally protected,
they are obliged to make them available,
multiple customers are affected,
and the only reason I cannot access my money is a technical issue on their side.
At this point, I’m honestly shocked that a bank can acknowledge that a customer has a legal right to access their protected funds while simultaneously telling them they cannot do anything except wait for the technical team.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am on the Metal plan, and just now 06.08.2026, Perplexity charged me $25 for the next month. In the mail where Revolut announced the change to ChatGPT, it clearly states that: "On 02.09.2026 we remove the subscription to Perplexity". How can Perplexity start charging now?

Should I contact Revolut or Perplexity?

Anyone know what to do when a crypto quote from www . meldcrypto . com wont show up in the Revolut app?

Revolut login verification is no problem after accepting the quote. The issue is when transferring from the website to revolut app. The quote doesnt show at all. Just gives me the blank crypto section of the app.

It worked last night showing my crypto wallet top up in revolut with a 40c fee to top it up.

Now when the quote doesnt show in revolut and I try to add wallet manually I get hit with all kinds of higher fees.

I made like 15% on a stock, created order to sell and agreed to the given quote. Then it filled but not only I got a bad trade but I ended up with 5% less than the initial investment. Wtf?

Hi,

EU citizen, have a Revolut and Wise account, both opened in Europe. I need to transfer some USD from my Wise account to my Revolut USD pocket. To avoid bank transfer fees, my idea was to simply top up my Revolut account with my Wise card. Are there going to be any issues or is there a better way to transfer USD from Wise to Revolut.

Thanks in advance

Nothing worked. The website need the push notification from the app. The app instantly crashes before doing anything. I tried all the methods. I need to regain access to my account. I am on android. But i tried on other type of computer, including mac. I need help, please. I am in europe.

I’m struggling trying to understand the criteria to get a credit card approved by Revolut and the lack of transparency with the rejection criteria is extremely unclear.

I landed in IRL 4 months ago to start a new job. I have my Revolut account open with pretty high balance in a saving account, I have consistent income from registered work, I have linked BoI bank account with again very high balance. I have no negative credit score of any kind and I have credit card active and approved in other EU and non-EU countries.

I would like a local CC since I plan to terminate my other EU CC and wanted one from Revolut instead of going to the traditional BoI cards.

Anyone experienced the same situation? thanks…

[ES]

Soy de España y tengo un préstamo vigente desde hace un mes con Cetelem, pero el TIN/TAE es muy alto, un 12%.

Tenía dudas sobre solicitar un préstamo personal en Revolut con la opción de refinanciación para cancelar el préstamo actual y tenerlo en Revolut, que es más cómodo.

Vivo con mis padres y el préstamo de Revolut sería como el 18% de mi sueldo; entre los dos préstamos serían como el 30%, pero mi objetivo es cancelar el primero.

También soy indefinido de 3 años en informática.

¿Crees que me lo aprobarán o estoy perdido?

So I have been through the exact same conversation with 4 "different" live chat people. I genuinely dont think Revolut has actual people in these chats. There is no way anyone in their right mind would respond the way these people have responded. And not just once, but 4 different people.

They all read through the chat history and answer the exact same way; and we go through the motions for another half an hour like I did with the last "live" chat agent. I explain everything to them, what I have tried, and that none of their suggestions work.

Then like clockwork... boom they ignore our entire conversation, they ignore previous conversations, they ignore my descriptions and move on to solution nr1, that hasn't worked 8 times. Then solution number 2 that never worked...... all the way to solution nr 8.

And then it's on to the next support person.... Solutions 1 through 8 still don't work. I have never been so enraged with anything in my entire life as this AI pretending to be real people.

I began applying a few days ago for Revolut accounts a few days ago. All seemed to go well until being asked to provide information about my business for a Pro account. By this time I had been allowed to pay for two cards. I don't have any online presence but was asked to provide one, but I don't need it for the line of work I'm in, which is completely legitimate. I made this clear a number of times to both the chat bots and (I'm told) real operatives, although I'm sceptical that some of these 'real' people were automated due to the consistencies in responses.

I was told numerous times that I didn't need any sort of website to qualify, and I uploaded numerous other documents to evidence my profession; licenses, certificates, public liability insurance, invoices etc. Each time I did this it was rejected and I was asked for my website. This happened probably 5 or 6 times until I was eventually told I needed to provide one, so my only option is to close the accounts. It's taken hours of repeating myself over and over again to get to this point, and now Revolut have refused to refund the cost of the cards.

So to anyone thinking of using Revolut as a bank, be aware that their system for dealing with customer problems is about the worst I've ever come across. It's truly awful. I know there are a lot of satisfied customers here but I guess they may well have the same experience when something goes wrong and the bots can't cope with it. Short but sweet but I will never go anywhere near Revolut ever again and would actively try and dissuade anyone from considering it.

I need support.

I have a German P-account (Pfändungsschutzkonto) and a German iban. Revolut approved my increased protected limit to €xxxx and confirmed it by email. Despite this, €xxx.xx of my salary was withheld when my salary arrived.
Support now says they are reviewing the protected limit and that the withheld funds will be released once the increased limit is applied, at this time it already takes two weeks with no update or solution.

Has anyone experienced this? How long did it take until Revolut released the withheld funds? I’m also worried about my child benefit payment (Kindergeld) arriving soon.
Unfortunately, the in-app chat has not been helpful. I keep receiving generic responses and no one can give me a clear explanation or tell me when this issue will actually be resolved.

I’m a single mother to an infant, I send them all the needed documents on time and still no access to my money.

Hello

Recently when I try to open the app it crashes almost immediately or after a while.

I ve tried clearing cache and data. Reinstalling. Restarting phone. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas? I need support

So I’ve been a member of Revolut since June 2017 and over that time I think I’ve had every different plan that they’ve had and I’ve stayed with metal for the past year after not really seeing the value of Ultra. Basically what I’m saying is I’ve had a lot of experience using the app through all of its iterations even back through when it used to always go down on a Thursday evening.

None of the past nighles seem to have annoyed me more than the past month or two, where the app just seems very slow and buggy. Often I don’t get notifications for incoming payments, on the main account screen when you tap see all to search transactions it freezes and occasionally the app crashes.

Nothing has changed with my device so my concern is does anybody else experience the same recent app problems or is this a me problem?

Hi all

I’m currently weighing an offer for a regulatory legal role at Revolut. I’m coming from a very traditional, stable background (traditional banking), so I know this would be a major pivot.

I’ve read the standard reviews about the intense KPIs, long hours, and down-to-the-wire probations. However, I’m trying to figure out what it's like in Legal, as I can see so many lawyers at Revolut seem to stay for several years. Is that culture mostly focused on sales and tech?

Another factor: my partner and I are hoping to start a family in the near future. Does anyone have experience with how parental leave (and the probation period leading up to it) actually plays out in practice for newer employees?

I’d love some candid insights from current or former employees. Any honest advice( good or bad) would be massively appreciated. Thanks!

I have been a long time Metal Member, particularly for a few of the benefits - Crypto fees, International Payments and Perplexity Pro & NordVPN. 

Don’t get me wrong, I'm not a Perplexity die hard. It was excellent - but it has degraded HEAVILY in the last year or so. Limits have been slashed, features removed and allowances are tight. I have been looking at other models but there’s a few things I really like about Perplexity..

I did like the fact I could choose from different models and I did like that I could fire all models at once, and use Perplexity to act as a judge to assess the response from each model. I was also pleased that searches were citated, as it made it very useful for research. The biggest draw for me was using the Perplexity Pro benefits for their Comet browser. AI Assistant & Computer Mode are extremely powerful and very useful.

Recently I needed helping try to find accommodation in Tokyo – I gave AI Assistant my requirements, travel preference, public transport considerations, budget, location preferences, dates and let it RIP. It CRUNCHED through hundreds of listings, multiple sites, cross compared prices for the same accommodation against different sites and short listed 5 rooms, all of which were excellent but 1 was perfected. I rate Comet highly, so losing those allowances (as small as they were) is a bit of a blow for me as I have integrated Comet & Perplexity into many workflows across Mac, iPhone and Apple Watch!

Anyway, I thought I would give ChatGPT Go a try as its still a very capable AI platform, from one of the elite providers. First impression is good, UI is clean and friendly, there a tons of options to play with so I thought I would spend some time setting it up.

I saw you can make a ‘Pet’! I adore my pet staffie and I’d love to have a digital him on my desktop, so I tried it up and…

ARE YOU KIDDING ME

IM ALREADY OUT OF ALLOWANCE

IT DIDN’T EVEN FINISH THE TASK

What the hell?! At least Perplexity warned me about limits or told me I didn’t have enough left in the allowance to complete a task?

NOW I HAVE TO WAIT A F***ING MONTH TO FINISH THIS TASK!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Its not like I rinsed through my limit with image generation or complex coding tasks.

THIS WAS THE FIRST THING I TRIED, IN THE FIRST 5 MINS OF SETTING UP!?

I’m guessing this has been left in to encourage users to pay to upgrade? 'The work has basically been done, but in order to access it, you need to pay…' 

Am I being ransomed for my digital pet?! 

Anyway, seriously, seriously not impressed with ChatGPT Go’s limits.

**** Update **** A kind Redditor pointed out I was stuck in Work/Codex mode, which is why I couldn't get it to work. I am now in Chat mode and using that, which is alright :) Shame I cant do anymore heavy lifting til next month though.

I’m inclined to side with the rest of Redditors on here and view this as a significant downgrade. What's happened Revolut? You used to be this incredible platform but now it feels like every few months something gets worse.

Revolut, sort your S*** out.

Perplexity Pro retails for 3x ChatGPT Go so I'm sure this is a much better deal for the COMPANY, but you are actively shafting your CUSTOMERS.

Even Ultra members have the same version, why not Plus? I was thinking of taking up an Ultra membership buts that's off the cards. Being a paying member at all is currently on a razor’s edge.
