Reviews for Monzo have trended positively over the past 90 days

Monzo’s app is a joy to use, making budgeting, saving with pots, and managing money straightforward and even fun. The Flex credit card is a standout, offering flexible, interest-free repayments that many find a lifesaver. However, customer service often frustrates users, especially when dealing with account freezes, fraud, or urgent issues, leaving some feeling stranded and unsupported.

Positive themes

  • Monzo’s app makes saving and budgeting easy with handy pots and clear money tracking.
  • The Monzo Flex card is brilliant for spreading payments interest-free and managing credit.
  • Monzo’s app is user-friendly and packed with features that make everyday banking simple.

Negative themes

  • Customer service often fails when urgent help is needed; slow or no response frustrates users.
  • Accounts get frozen or locked without clear explanation causing serious access issues.
  • Fraud handling is poor; many report slow or no refunds and unhelpful support.

Monzo bank is definitely worth considering for your banking needs: 1. The pot system is great live that you can assign bills to be paid from them and give them a virtual card 2. The paid features are worth considering as the insurances provided by the top tier is great and a free greggs treat weekly is definitely worth it 3. Monzo's other offerings like there investment pot is easy to use and they explain it so well there Monzo Flex card is amazing and I wish that style of card is more wide spread Read more Read less
