I miss monzo so much :(
I moved out of the UK and sadly never found a real alternative.
I had a simple workflow that made me happy:
I had two budgets, one for fixed spenses such as rent and phone, another for everything else (food, taxi, entertainment, whatever). I'd divide my "everything else" budget by 30 and tell monzo to move everyday that amount into the credit card account.
So basically... A daily budget. It was something like 20-30 pounds per day.
I wanted something more expensive than usual? I'd "save" for a few days.
It's not the most efficient budgeting, but it was so much fun.
- eat_veggies 6y agoI think Monzo is making moves to expand into the US. There's a waitlist (you might be bumped up if you were a UK customer?). I got one but didn't end up using it very often.
- bumpkinjunkie 6y agoThey were, but then they hit funding issues in spring 2020 and appear to be scaling back their US expansion. https://techcrunch.com/2020/04/09/monzo-to-shutter-las-vegas/ https://techcrunch.com/2020/04/09/monzo-to-shutter-las-vegas...
- monsieurbanana 6y agoI'm in Singapore, probably faster to wait for an asian neo-bank to appear than for Monzo to get here
- izolate 6y agoThe other way around. They deny you if you're a UK customer.
