Revolut

Help needed!

I created a disposable virtual card but the card number and CVV are all asterisk ( except the last four digits ). When I click "show card details", it prompted me to key in the passcode which I did. But nothing happen after that, the numbers are still asterisk.

Has anyone encountered this and how to resolve? Thanks!

After I key in the passcode, I will need to input the 6-digit 2FA code via SMS to reveal the full set of numbers. Have you used the disposable virtual card? AFAIK, it is good for one time use and you may wish to create another?

Thank you @hclee01!
I haven't get past the stage of obtaining the virtual card number cos all digits are in asterisk so I have not started using the virtual card yet.
I suddenly remembered when I login to Revolut via this new phone, they asked me to take a selfie to verify my identity. I did not complete this process cos it took a long time and I aborted it. Maybe is because of this? I will retry later and see if it solves the problem.

OK, redo per above. This time waited for the selfie verification to complete. Everything is fine now.
Thanks @hclee01.

Do any credit cards give anything for Revolut topups now? The last card which still gave rewards has now been nerfed and none of my (way too many) other cards give anything.

I'm not asking for details of the card or bank just whether or not anyone knows if any card gives anything back. I'm willing to search and do all the legwork but there isn't much point if no cards no longer give anything as it'll be a fruitless search.

TIA.

Stop asking for loopholes here.

I’ve applied for revolut Metal card to try if can get rebate for paying tuition fee.

And the answer is yes, you can get 1% cashback 2-3 days after paying the fee.

How is that a loophole? I don't transfer money back to SG bank accounts - which is a loophole too many seem to abuse. I use Revolut for its intended purpose - forex. The SCB x-card gave miles until recently and now none of my 15 or so other credit cards give any rewards. Are you like a frustrated hall monitor?

Topping up Revolut is not supposed to give rewards. You got it for a few months, so be happy with it. Don't be greedy.

Lol.

Which transactions are exempted from the S$30,000 annual limit?
Three types of transactions that are exempted from the S$30,000 annual limit:

Transfer of excess amount to your external account; local and international transfers to your personal account under your name; and local peer-to-peer bank transfers to another person’s personal account

Local bank transfers to another person's personal account is NOT exempted.
Local and international transfer to own name, is exempted.

Actually using Revolut for manufactured spending to get cc rewards is against the Revolut T&Cs. As is withdrawing money that was funded by a cc to your local bank to basically get a cc cash advance without any fees. There is nothing in the T&Cs saying that you cannot use a cc that gives rewards to fund Revolut as long as you are not misusing Revolut.

Anyway it's purely academic I'll see if I can work out any creative ways to maximise my returns as I have the ongoing need to transfer $$$ via forex and I got sick of the charges that Transferwise imposes. Revolut was the better option and a few miles or some cashback along the way was an added bonus.

Anyone tried closing the account before?

 

[naysayers]

Heard a lot of complains of account suddenly blocked. So is this app any good? I am not scared about whether this is a legit company but the practically it offers basically is lost if I am travelling and then suddenly they ask me to verify documents.

Also is it possible to subscribe premium just before you want to travel (cancel afterwards) to enjoy the benefits?

Lastly, if top up kena charge (2.8 percent) or not?

Was good for my Japan trip. This is what they are doing constantly, not just recently. Sometimes just verify documents, sometimes is lock plus verify document.

Yes

Lastly, if top up kena charge (2.8 percent) or not?

If is charged to your card, you can ask them for reimbursement.
