Moving from KBC Bank

Will have to switch banks soon due to KBCs exit from Ireland.

Any thoughts on best banks to move to?
Will banks with all the hassle with changing direct debits and standing orders?

Trouble with Revolut today.

Wonder why.

Seems Revolut can leave Irish bankers exposed.

Bankers are people who work for a bank..... they will not be exposed in any way.

Yeah that was a typo.

I meant the customers of Revolut getting exposed

That tweet is from February. With Revolut moving to a banking licence, I wonder if it still applies?

I’ve set up a Revolut account.

With KBC I had 2 accounts, just to segregate money for various reasons.

Seems with Revolut it’s only possible to have only one account.

is that right? Seems unusual as it’s a valid use case for a customer.

Just getting used to using it myself, there is a feature called vaults (top bar on the home page in the app) where you can set up x amount of money to be transferred to a particular vault per week/month.
