[GB] Should I use Revolut as my primary bank?
I’m considering using Revolut as my main bank and wondered what people’s experiences are.
I really like the app because it’s well laid out and customisable, which is especially helpful for me because I have OCD and like having everything organised.
I also love the pots system and the calendar showing upcoming payments etc and the other budgeting features.
My main hesitation though is security. I’ve seen quite a few posts about people having their accounts blocked/frozen and being unable to access their money, with customer support apparently taking a while to resolve things.
Wondering I’d be better off keeping a traditional bank like Nationwide as my main account.
I’m debating keeping Nationwide for bills and using Revolut for everyday spending, but I’d much rather have everything organised in Revolut if it’s reliable enough.
For anyone using Revolut as their primary bank, would you recommend it, or is keeping a traditional bank as your main account the safer option?
