In an era where digital banking should simplify finances, a recent user outcry highlights significant flaws in Revolutβs Pro service. Users are experiencing delayed payments and unexpected fees, leading to mounting frustrations aimed at the fintech giant.
A frustrated user, who switched from Monzo to Revolut, shares their disappointing experience after onboarding onto the Revolut Pro plan despite initial optimism. Following their move out of the UK, they hoped Revolut would be a suitable replacement for their former banking service. They praised the Premium plan for its high-interest accounts and hailed the convenience of setting up joint accounts but quickly soured on the Pro service.
After processing their first payment through Revolut's freelancer account, the user discovered that it could take up to 7 days for payments to clear. "I could've invoiced and done a transfer, and it wouldβve been instant," they remarked. The delay not only caused stress but also came with a 2.5% processing fee, leaving the user feeling financially pinched and frustrated.
The story is resonating with others in the community, with three main themes emerging:
Complaints about slow processing times and fees: Users express discontent over fee structures that arenβt transparent.
Customer service struggles: Many share their frustrating interactions with support, describing experiences with bots that fail to resolve real problems.
Regret over switching banks: Similar sentiments echo as users wonder if they made the right choice.
"Always getting put through to a chatbot that pretends to care," the user lamented.
Interestingly, while some users defend Revolutβs features, the overall sentiment appears predominantly negative, with many wishing they had heeded warnings from friends about the service.
The reaction on digital forums reflects a growing discontent among Revolut users. As frustrations surface, the question remains: Can Revolut address these concerns before they lose customers to competitors?
