    I am trying to buy something online. I have been told to swipe the phone app on the log in page. But all i get is a message saying no approvals waiting even though there is a small 1 in red next to the app symbol. Why won't your app let me approve a payment.

  • same for me.. never seen it actually give me a thing to swipe, I just cancel and redo the payment and it works fine then don't get asked to approve it.

    I've been trying to complete an online purchase, and as with previous posts, all I get is "please approve through the app". When i do this, i get a "transaction declined" message. I've also tried to tansfer funds to my Revolut, and the same thing is happening. And now I'm on hold waiting to talk to a person. Come on BoI, get yor act together, please.

    And when, after 20 minutes on hold, I get transfered to another section, and then cut off. Top notch customer service, BoI, top notch.

    Hi,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    I am very sorry to hear this. Could I ask you to take a look at this link please and ensure you are following all these steps. If you are using an android phone, please clear the cache on the app, restart your phone and attempt the transaction again. For iOS users, please force close the app and restart your phone.


    We would also recommend removing saved card details from Revolut before doing these things and then readd the details once you have completed the steps.

    The team can be reached directly on 0818200362. They will be happy to help once they are available.

    Thanks, Megan
