@fasterthanlime I'm using Revolut Business and I like it so far. The best thing is to export expenses as CSV in a format my tax consultant understands. But then people pointed out to me that they're a bunch of a-holes so now I'm not sure anymore.
@fasterthanlime As a product, it works well; far better than the standard banking options available in Ireland. Small stuff like "show me a notification whenever I pay for something, let me annotate it" and a "split this expense with my friend" thing - these all work well. One of my few gripes with it is that the CSV export does not include those annotations.
…do y’all know any good alternatives to Revolut? Requirements are: online bank, can make a joint account with 2 credit cards, supports Apple Pay, operates in France, that’s about it.
(PS I dont think /any/ financial institution is good/trustworthy so the bar is fairly low)
@fasterthanlime I've had a local credit union actually holding my cash with a CC from some "big bank" for a while now - works pretty well.
(the credit union does cards too but for travel and stuff you kinda need the larger institution)
@fasterthanlime maybe not what you want but I always get the shittiest but cheapest bank, and then a credit card from a dedicated provider like barclays (supports apple pay) - that way you aren’t so bound to a single bank and get the most benefits
I don't know if this helps you, but https://www.curve.com can wrap multiple bank account in a single applepay/google pay compatible card, and is available EU-wide https://www.curve.com
I don't use a joint account, my partner and I share bills with https://www.splitwise.com, which, again, not sure if that helps. 😅
@fasterthanlime I use them while traveling, I think they had/have good ATM fees abroad.
Just yesterday though, someone posted in the company Slack that they might be having serious issues with regulatory compliance and to not keep too much money there, so make of that what you will 🤷
@fasterthanlime if you adjust your expectations and don’t use it as your main bank then it’s great and the rates are awesome but I wouldn’t trust them with all my savings
@fasterthanlime i mean. Good enough that their exec teams keep leaving, they cannot provide financial statements and their UK auditor keep slamming them for lying in their financial statements.
