Revolut vs N26: Which is Better? (2024)

thank you

One question. Does any of these degusto banks allow deposit from a bank account that is not linked in to the app? For example my citi bank is linked on N26 and I use my BOA app to send to my N26 account.

You said in the video that Revolut is protected by the FSCS. On their website the state that they are NOT protected by FSCS rather some other mechanism which is not backed by the UK government. This is a crucial factor so make sure you don't mislead people.
The rest of the video is great. Would suggest to put more tables comparing side by side.

Thank you so much. I'm a US expat in Austria and have been using Wise for transfers but I need something to show me a breakdown of my budget and stumbled upon both while doing so but wasn't sure which would work best for me. Really thorough but clear and concise information. Thank you!

Best comparion video I've seen. Excellent.

It could have been much more understandable if you had added a table at the end that substantiates all the points :)

Thank you for the video!

CRIMINAL 😠
N26 bank confirmed to me on 19th October, 2022 that they had closed my account and that I had no access to my funds. They claimed that they had found irregularities in the account. This was false, as my funds had been deposited by my Lawyer in Spain following the sale of my property there which he completed, acting as my Power of Attorney, with all due taxes etc paid and the whole transaction had been ratified by the European Court at The Hague.
I have requested details from N26 of what irregularities they had purported to have found but they are unable to do so, which is hardly surprising. The change in the exchange rate since my initial instruction has added more than £1800 loss to me that I would expect them to cover. If my money is not returned within the next few days, it will be necessary for me to obtain a further loan because of their actions, which would add further expense, which I would also expect them to cover. I have pointed out to them that I am 84 years of age in a few weeks' time and the worry, stress and lack of sleep that they have caused me has had a serious effect on my health.
I reported to BaFin on four separate occasions which was a waste of time, is this state aided theft?

It says on their blog that customer money is protected but you said they do no provide customer deposit protection, is that same thing?

‘‘‘Revolut customer deposits in Europe are insured up to a maximum of EUR 100,000.‘‘‘

Very helpful!!!

I'm a student coming for masters to Ireland, can I use Revolut as my primary bank account(For both Funds deposits and salary account)??

Thanks for this, George!
