    I have looked at Monza, But not sure about it...

    Only Nationwide Select/Virgin Money Have said I will be accepted.

    Might try for Halifax but don't wanna get declined 80% chance I will be accepted

    What arent you sure about Monza ?

    Im talking about the card and not the track here.
  • i have a Monzo card after using the link on this site.

    Tested it yesterday locally for both PIN and contactless transactions and both were flawless, as expected.


    Top up is easy.


    Wanted a MasterCard back up for holiday after Supercard withdrew their services from 24 July 2017, just before my hols.


    Have travel Visa cards as well, so all set now.


    Monzo is definitely worth a look in my book. Will report further once holiday experience gained.
