Revolut card Ultra plan

[quokka77]

I'm testing Ultra debit currently. For me, the ClassPass credits partially offset the big fee. I value this feature at approx $40 per month.

Also ChatGPT, I personally value this at about $5 per month.

Yes

Thanks - I'll apply (although may need to wait a little bit due to some recent applications (due to going on some final runs before the RBA's gutting of the system)).

I applied for a metal credit card. Bizarrely, they made me pay a subscription fee to find out whether they could offer me a credit card. They couldn't - and said they don't do credit cards in Australia. Now having a terrible time trying to get my money back. They say they are being generous in not charging me for two more monthly credit card fees that I have apparently signed up for. This is either a scam or it's incompetence. At the moment I'm leaning towards a scam of charging people for services they have no intention of providing.

---AVOID---

Looks like Revolut now offers transfers from RevPoints into hotel rewards programs.

If you go to Stays on the RevPoints page and click transfers you can link your memberships with

• All Accor for 2:1
• Hilton 1:1
• I Prefer Hotels 1:2
• Raddison Rewards 1:3
• Wyndham Rewards 1:1

Not my experience at all. I have the Ultra Plan. Applied for the credit card on an aeroplane on the way up to Asia. Pretty much the whole process completed & approved by the time I got to Hong Kong

My wife is on the basic freebie plan; she applied for the card and was knocked back as part of the normal assessment process (which was fair enough really, given the way our finances are structured and our Revolut accounts are individual)

There was no suggestion or request for her to subscribe to a Plan. Everything seemed pretty bank-like and above board in her case & mine

‘Scam’ is probably a little harsh

Saw that Revolut is now offering 10x points on Emirates bookings. Could be a decent way to earn a nice stack of points for someone already looking to purchase tickets.
