Could be a Monzo Plus rival?
It looks like Revolut has come up with a rival to Monzo Plus, which costs £5 per month. Launched a few months back, the reviews and feedback of this plan aren’t that great. Also, it is beneficial for Revolut as it looks like a clever way of making free customers pay for the service.
