Another added: ‘You are broken @monzo. Online payment keeps declining. A quick search on here and there are many others with issues this morning…’
And one vented: ‘I think it’s time to jump ship from @monzo app is constantly not working.
‘Support is basically non-existent (despite paying £15 a month!!) It was a good run, but they’ve finally run it into the ground.’
