I use it for buying anything online, have a couple of vaults set up for saving. My son pays his share of the house bills into it.
Have a wee bit of cryto in it too.
If I go away for weekend I put my spending money into it and leave my other cards at home |

"How many on here use it? do you enjoy? I find it extremely convenient. "
I use it for personal and business use. Find it extremely convenient but they’ve never made a profit and are in a huge financial hole. Your money is secured but if it goes bad it could be a while before you see it. |

Really handy app, use it all the time and have the kids pocket money set up on it to go into their account every week. I even bought some bit coin on it recently but that's on a downward trend since  |

I've set it up but I'm not sure it's working properly. It doesn't seem to allow me to receive amounts over €299. If someone could try sending €300 just to see if they've fixed it.
I'll send it straight back, of course...goes without saying.... |

I know! It's quite perplexing.
Customer support advised me to ask random people to try send the money so that they can properly diagnose the problem.
Modern technology eh...  "
Seems plausible |

Wouldn’t be without it.. great to keep track of what the child is spending and where. Have online spending turned off so they need to come to me before any purchases. |

"Never heard of this until before Xmas a customer ask do I accept it
Is it a bolt on to an existing bank acc here and something similar to a debit card?"
Its a prepaid debit card, you can link it to your bank account. I originally got it for travelling to Jersey as no exchange charges.
If I'm up the North I use it instead of my normal bank card.
As for regulation Since Jan 2021 – all Irish customer accounts at Revolut are regulated by the Lithuanian Central Bank. Revolut hopes to eventually get a licence from the Irish Central Bank. Reckon the banks here are putting a stop to them getting the licence.

"Does anyone uses it as a main bank account and get paid into it. Need to move from KBC and the two main Irish banks are a rip off with charges and poor service "
It's great when everything is smooth, as your main account it can prove difficult to contact support.
In saying that it's pretty difficult to contact any bank at the moment. Also it's impossible to add cash to your account, it needs to be an electronic transfer. |
