flaneurs_lobster can I ask, did your one off 1.5K DD work out, have you had any cash back yet?I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.0 -
I have both the SmartSaver account and a Credit card with Zopa and have done a few years now with no invitation to Current Account or Regular Saver
interestingly, although I have the latest app - checked for updates just in case - I seem to have lost the App Chat function and cannot find it anywhere. Bizarre. If you believe you can, you will. If you believe you can't, you won't.

It would be interesting to know if those who have been offered current accounts have OPTED IN to marketing preferences and which out of the 3 available (Special Offers, Updates and Tips, Give Feedback).
I opted OUT of all 3 from word go.If you believe you can, you will. If you believe you can't, you won't.

FWIW I am opted in for all of them. Only have a pound in Zopa since a few months, and tbh I only realised this was a good offer because I happened to pay attention to an email about it. I have little reason to open the app these days.MrFrugalFever said:It would be interesting to know if those who have been offered current accounts have OPTED IN to marketing preferences and which out of the 3 available (Special Offers, Updates and Tips, Give Feedback).

I can't remember off the top of my head what I did but I typically opt in to marketing emails just on the off chance some useful info appears in them (rarely does).MrFrugalFever said:It would be interesting to know if those who have been offered current accounts have OPTED IN to marketing preferences and which out of the 3 available (Special Offers, Updates and Tips, Give Feedback).

I'd kept my Zopa account at nil since 2022 and was offered the current account about a month ago.0 -
I've not had any payment yet. It's 'beta', so I'll give it a few days.trickydicky14 said:flaneurs_lobster can I ask, did your one off 1.5K DD work out, have you had any cash back yet?2 -
Expecting (?) payment of one-off £30 with interest due, which Zopa pay on monthly anniversary of opening account. So in my case 3rd, but since it's a Sunday probably next day.soulsaver said:

I used the chat function on desktop - asked about the Current Account and got put on the "wait list"MrFrugalFever said:I have both the SmartSaver account and a Credit card with Zopa and have done a few years now with no invitation to Current Account or Regular Saver interestingly, although I have the latest app - checked for updates just in case - I seem to have lost the App Chat function and cannot find it anywhere.

£30 added by Zopa to current account as "November Cashback" (along with 62p interest). Moved to RS (along with additional £270) as today is also month anniversary of opening same.trickydicky14 said:
