Witholding my funds.

1
Extremely poor experience with Monzo Business. My business changed ownership and a new director was appointed. Monzo contacted me claiming there was no active director, despite me providing evidence that there was. I was then told that all I needed to do was add the new director as a user on the account and everything would be fine. I followed their instructions, but Monzo rejected the application and then decided to close the account anyway, refusing to provide any meaningful explanation despite the conflicting advice they had already given me. To make matters worse, once the account was closed, Monzo then said they could not release the remaining business funds to a new bank account because I was no longer the director and that the new director would need to deal with it. So they closed the account because of an issue surrounding the director, rejected our attempt to add that director when instructed to do so, and are now making it extremely difficult for the business to recover its own money. At this point it feels like Monzo are holding the business's funds hostage. The communication has been contradictory from start to finish, and getting a straightforward resolution has been unnecessarily difficult. I would not recommend Monzo Business based on this experience. Reviewed on: 16th September 2026

STAY AWAY FROM MONZO PLEASE!

STAY AWAY FROM MONZO PLEASE!!! I am extremely disappointed with the way Monzo has handled my situation. This has been one of the worst banking experiences I have dealt with. Funds were transferred from my other business account specifically to cover an urgent hospital bill and transportation to and from my hospital appointment. Monzo blocked access to the funds without giving me any clear explanation of when they would become available. I explained to Monzo staff on the phone that I was due to attend hospital for a procedure and that withholding access to my money was putting my appointment in jeopardy. I made the urgency and consequences very clear, but my pleas appeared to fall on deaf ears. With no access to the money I had transferred for transportation, I was left having to walk miles to the hospital and back. As if that were not distressing enough, I returned home expecting some indication that my funds would finally be released, only to be informed instead that Monzo intended to close my account and that I could potentially be waiting weeks for my own money to be returned. This is not simply about inconvenience. When a customer tells you that access to their own funds is directly affecting their ability to attend a hospital procedure, there should surely be some recognition of the seriousness and urgency of the circumstances. MONZO — WHERE IS THE COMPASSION? I understand that banks have regulatory and security obligations and may sometimes need to restrict accounts or investigate transactions. What I cannot understand is why a customer facing an urgent situation should apparently be left without meaningful information, a clear timeframe, or an effective way of addressing the immediate consequences. I have documented the chronology of what happened, including my communications with Monzo, and have escalated the matter through the appropriate channels and to my MP. MONZO HAS STILL NOT RELEASED MY FUNDS WITH NO EXPLANATION!! Scamming the sick and vulnerable. Reviewed on: 4th September 2026
