Revolut wins UK banking licence after five-year tussle

It took me about five years to get Revolut to return to me the funds in an account I could no longer access (Revolut overnight upped the Android requirement for their app, so I could no longer access), where they had no mechanism by which to regain access.

In the end I managed it by issuing a GDPR. Revolut's GDPR staff were able to finally shut the account, and send me the funds, so I got them back.

They have had a web app for the last 5 years. It works, you don't need a mobile app. https://www.revolut.com/blog/post/introducing-the-revolut-we...

You cannot log in without the mobile app.

The only way to interact with the account is via a specific variant of an android app ?

It should. They cut off access to my account without warning, because they say GOS doesn't meet their security requirements. Read all the GPlay reviews from people on GOS who were cut off without notice.
