Revolut card delivery times

I'm off to Europe and the Middle East next month and just discovered Revolut last night.

So far I think its fantastic, I've downloaded the app and added funds in order to get a physical card which I want to use for withdrawing cash from ATMs.

However, I'm due to travel from 3rd February and stupidly didn't realise till I had submitted my order that the delivery time for the card can be up to 12 working days.

On the app it says 'Issued - Jan 26', then 'Posted - Jan 27' and then 'Expected - Feb 6'.

What has been your experience of delivery times with the card? Do they generally arrive before the maximum deadline they state? I'm hoping I get it within the next few days, there's only 6 working days till I travel though :mad:

Remember that you can only withdraw £200 per month without penalty.

Metro Bank debit card is disbursed on the spot and would cover you for the European trip.

Revolut will send you a card in a day or two for an extra charge, ask on the app chat.

The Monzo card is free and will arrive a day or two after you load £100, having jumped the queue by signing up via the link in the MSE Prepaid cards article.
There are cash withdrawal limits.

Opening a Metro Bank account in one of their SE England branches provides their card in 40 minutes or so, fee-free in Europe only.

Travel with more than one source of funds.

Hi,

What was the outcome of your delivery?

Going through the same dilemma myself

Since that time, card delivery has been reported to be just a few days. But you can ask on the in-app chat about the current expected delivery time.
