One small point to watch there is that AFAIK Revolut does not have a banking license so they're not covered by the FCA deposit protection scheme.

Not a worry unless they go bust of course, but one to be aware of ...

Yeah it's a wonder why its taking so long. It's a great card to travel with but don't put too much money on it for this reason.

They have applied for a banking license, but that was like a year ago and haven't heard anything much since then.
