Revolut is nice but they still have some work to do (like CHIP mentioned the mobile only is a pain) its also unnecessarily complicated to request money or sometimes send money.
I cant just request money from a revtag, they have to be a friend first lol

Today I have received notification from Revolut about more functional Revolut.me service. There is talking about permanent link to request payments so that may help AVICC

I use very seldom PayPal in last few years. To thank me they sent me an email about that my account is locked. They ask me to send scans of personal document, proof of home adress (I did it in the past when account was created) and question about that if I have connections with (belongs to) politics family -  ??? I have to think about sense to use it anymore and maybe it is time to finally close that circus. XXI century and still I can't withdraw funds in original currency just only to pay those usury conversion rates.

That was my first thought too but without touching anything in that email I have logged in straight to my account and there was notification with these questions.

Yes and excessive preference for buyers leads to absurdities.

I have no experience in using it but from amatuer point of view I see BTC and Etherum rates fell down. I have no idea how crypto will react for CBDC. If supervision over crypto currencies will be taken over world banks then it will loose it sesnse of use.

Revolut is only good if you have a compatible smartphone. Can't use it without

Without doubt, BTC and ETH are the symbols of crypto. Treat them like stocks and don't be scared by the volatile of crypto.(As long as you know why it happens and how to manage the risks.) And There are another type of crypto called stable coins, which has 1:1 exchange rate to USD, such as USDT, BUSD or USDC...etc.
When I suggested using crypto, it refers to the stablecoins which has stable values that you can exchange for USD instead of BTC or ETH.

I’ve been exchange’s(Binance, Coinspot) wallet for small transactions, and hardware wallet (Trezor and Ledger Nano S) for crypto savings.
Revolut also has crypto wallet, allows you to buy,sell and send crypto, but it has limitations that can only send crypto to another Revolut user’s account, not universally to any compatible wallet address. That means, crypto in your Revolute wallet cannot be sent to exchanges or your own virtual/ hardware wallet.

Thank you for all informations. It's high time to expand knowledge for better diversification.
