Wise vs Revolut - This is what I've found out
That's a pretty ignorant comment, and I sincerely hope it comes back to haunt you one day. I began the process of opening a Revolut account many months ago. I already use WISE and never had a problem with them, but I thought I'd try Revolut too. Just after setting up the account - and before I put any money in it - I started seeing newspaper stories from home about scams on Revolut customers. The details did not indicate the victims had to be fools or financially naiive, but subjects of sophisticated scams that almost anyone in their particular circumstances could have fallen for. But what was really shocking was how Revolut handled the complaints. They simply dismissed the victims with stock letters. Some of the stories were taken up by the 'Your Money' section of a national newspaper. The journos made direct contact with Revolut HQ (virtually impossible for individual victims) and they attempted to convince Revolut that they had some responsibility to their customers. The response was the same stone walling the victims had received. Normally companies 'back down' in the face of direct approaches from major newspapers - the bad publicity isn't worth it, and even though they don't often 'accept full responsibility' you'll often see them wriggle out with a smarmy 'but out of goodwill we are going to rectify this customers loss' or whatever. But no, not Revolut. They basically told the newspaper 'very sorry for their loss, but tough titty, now PFO'. As a result of reading several of these stories over a two/three week period I changed my mind about Revolut and never put any money in. Then I started getting emails from them. 'We are going to 'freeze' your account in 48hrs if you don't put in money'. I ignored it. A week later another email - 'We are going to 'freeze' your account in 48hrs if you don't put in money'. Huh?? I thought it was frozen already? I ignored. Another week passed, then the same email. Now I was just junking them. They stopped for a while. Then I got another one - 'If you don't fund your account within 48hrs we will CLOSE it!'. Ignored. Then the same again a few days later. This time I wrote to them and told them - YES PLEASE CLOSE IT! They wrote back (another stock letter) saying "Unfortunately we cannot close your account (lol!) until you fill up the attached Account Closing form' - a form which required inputting of lots personal details which I had no time for or interest in. I ignored it. I still get the odd threat that they 'are closing' my account. What a joke of a company. Stay well away folks. -

Heartbroken Irish mum honours ‘special son’ lost on Koh Tao
If he was diving off a PADI-certified boat and there were PADI instructors in the water with him, and he was diving with a "buddy," then he should not have died while diving, barring, of course, that he did not have a congenital heart condition or another catastrophic issue lying in wait. Perhaps the details will surface someday. -
