@billydruryproperty: 🚨 REVOLUT FREEZES £37,000 HOUSE DEPOSIT ! Imagine saving £37,000 for your dream home, only to have your money frozen just 12 days before you’re due to complete the purchase. That’s what happened to an Oxfordshire couple whose house deposit was held in a joint Revolut account during a security review. They reportedly received conflicting explanations, including a reference to cryptocurrency, despite saying they didn’t own any crypto. With their house purchase at risk and the pressure mounting, the couple turned to consumer champion Helen Crane at This Is Money for help. After her intervention, the couple regained access to their money, and Revolut paid them £175 in compensation for delays. Revolut said account reviews are necessary to protect customers and meet regulatory obligations, but apologised for the delays and poor communication. 💡 THE LESSON: Consider keeping a backup bank account and planning ahead when moving large sums for a property purchase. 👇 Would you trust a digital bank with your entire house deposit, or would this put you off?
