I have disabled auto top up on my Revolut account

[Brendan Burgess]

I have had autotopup for some time.

When my balance falls below €100, it sucks out another €200 from my AIB account.

But with all the reports of people being scammed on Revolut and not being able to get refunds, I am worried that a scammer could clean out my AIB bank account via Revolut.

So I have disabled autotopup.

Interestingly, when I had a look at the security features on Revolut, I came across this.

I have not heard of anyone speaking to a real human. What they probably mean is getting into a long wait for an AI chat and when you are entirely frustrated by that, getting into another long wait for a text exchange with a real human.

OK. I never knew this feature existed. So now it makes sense to me how the people who had their phones stolen got more taken from their account than was in it.
I assumed it was a feature with Apple or Google pay tbh. Daw ....
