    Pathetic, I have done anything by the book and they are refusing to pay $30 stating that "they cannot see that referral was used". I even managed to get the referral link I used from the cache. They keep asking for the name, phone number, screenshot of the original referral email etc.

    • Sheng on 04/11/2021 - 18:25

      Wonder does it cap if the referer has reached their limit of 5, therefore, forfeiting any additional referees as well. Wouldn't make sense to impact the referee but does seems like a potential problem.

      • and on 04/11/2021 - 18:47

        This is not the case here - they state that "the referrer is not linked to your profile" and insist that I have to provide the original invitation in the form of email or screenshot.

        • Sheng on 04/11/2021 - 19:47

          Do you have a copy of the sms sent to you?

    I saw the display display "⚠️ Expiring Soon" on the landing page, but where can I see !NOV1AGG?

    • Sheng on 04/11/2021 - 23:45

      URL is where that is located.

    • simplerick on 05/11/2021 - 06:38

      You should see it in the Web url address you visited

    Dont forget, All the steps above must be completed by Nov 16 (midnite, GMT time) to get the bonus :)

  • Smile on 05/11/2021 - 10:07

    What does it mean "pass our Know Your Customer (KYC) checks"?

    1) I was verified successfully.
    2) Deposited money into the account.
    3) Ordered physical card which will arrived in Nov 16.
    4) use pink virtual card to make 3 x 10 purchase today.

    I still have not received $30.
    Have I done something wrong?
    How can I contact Revolut?

    • Sheng on 05/11/2021 - 11:26

      Might be a dud referral.

    • simplerick on 05/11/2021 - 16:16

      KYC is just verification of ID which you mentioned you already were successful.

      I would speak to live chat and confirm you have completed all steps and ask when to expect your $30

    • GreenGuava on 05/11/2021 - 16:42

      For what it's worth, I did the exact same steps as you except I used my blue virtual card (as opposed to the pink online card) and was credited $30 almost immediately after my third $10 purchase.

      • spoddar01 on 05/11/2021 - 16:59

        made my 3 $10 gc purchases almost 1.5 hrs ago, waiting for the referral bonus to credit still.

          Update: caught Live Agent for help and they pushed through afterwards about 4 hours later. Both received $30 as expected. Might be a system overload, try Live Agent under Help chatbot

      • CharcoalChicken on 05/11/2021 - 23:37

        I opened an account yesterday and did all the steps. Received the $30 bonus straight away.

        Today, I helped my partner to open an account and did all the steps. However, the bonus $30 hasn't been received so far….
        Very weird.

            @CVonC: Don't think this is the issue. It is my own referral link and I can see her referral progress got stuck at "3 card payments to be completed" which we had completed 4 transactions with the virtual card. :(

  • Bargain321 on 05/11/2021 - 16:43

    Need help! I signed up Revolut & verified & deposited $30. Money in so tried to buy $10 egiftcard from shopback but transaction keeps having error. Online payments are disabled message showing in Revolut app. When I clicked on the enable them to proceed under the security settings it said You can enable these security settings once you receive your card. In the meantime, you can add it to Google Pay or use virtual card. I did use the virtual card but getting error. Has anyone got same problem? Do I have to add the virtual card to Google Pay to pay?

    • maccam01 on 05/11/2021 - 16:45

      I used the pink temporary card while waiting for the physical one, still waiting for the $30 though. Others did not seem to get the $30 when using the pink card. From previous comments it seems the blue one can be added to google pay and used.

      • Bargain321 on 05/11/2021 - 17:34

        Thanks, it worked! I spent 3x $10 Purchase, do you know when will I get the $30 Referral Bonus?

        • Bargain321 on 05/11/2021 - 20:14

          @maccam01, I used the pink card, the transaction gone through ok, but still haven't received the $30. I read the T & C it said Rewards will be paid within 10 working days after the end of the Promotion Period. It is rather confusing as some of the ozbargainers said already received.

          • Sheng on 05/11/2021 - 20:20

            @Bargain321: Strange but yeah. I used one from the system and got it completed within 15 mins of signing up. Another person via the system used my code and got it completed in 1 hour based on the "last click" on the system and the referer bonus hitting my account.

  • yw on 05/11/2021 - 19:50

    everyone who got the $30 bonus are lucky. i did every step and spent $30 on the pink and $30 on the blue. but still nothing.

    • Sheng on 05/11/2021 - 20:11

      I checked my referrals. Someone has done all but order the card which is weird. If someone sees that either one of these two is them you are at these stages. If you need help with getting evidence to support shoot me a d'm.

      • yw on 05/11/2021 - 20:30

        thanks sheng, not me. i cant remember who the random referrer i used. funny thing my own referrer link has been clicked 5 times but i see nothing pending on my app.

        • DoctorCalculon on 06/11/2021 - 21:47

          You need to wait for the three qualifying pending transactions to settle first.

          • yw on 06/11/2021 - 22:22

            @DoctorCalculon: i thought that too but nothing happened when they did all settle. anyway i spoke to customer service, they said the link i used to register was a general referral link which has no bonus. i give up on revolut

            • Sheng on 06/11/2021 - 22:29

              I have the same issue with my own referral link - it does not have the !NOV1AGG suffix. So, I asked my family member to be careful in selecting one of the other valid referral links from here as using my link would not work for this promo.

              I think the mods should flush out all the dodgy referral links from here as too many people have been caught out like yourself.

    • attalisie on 07/11/2021 - 17:07

      I did all the steps by friday arvo but didnt get the money (I used the blue virtual card) so on saturday I wrote to them on chat. I explained it all to Julie and she said they would put in a request to the relevant team. Then today I was informed the request was successful and I was given the reward!

    Chao Z you can message me if you need any assistance (3 purchases to be completed).

    Nathan M you just signed up today, message me if you need help with ID verification or anything

    • DoctorCalculon on 09/11/2021 - 18:36

      Is there no way to message / remind your referees via the app?

      Fat chance if you expect Chao or Nathan to read your message here.

      • Kyle-K on 10/11/2021 - 21:56

        No, There is a message them button but all it does is open a template messaging in your messaging app. You're technically supposed to know the people you're referring…

      You mean someone send u money from their Revolut instead of funding it themselves? No, I tried that one before with a friend, it didn't ticked the step 2, which specifically said: Add money by connecting their bank account or debit card.
      The order doesn't matter though, can do those steps in any order.

  • deeeno on 09/11/2021 - 22:42

    A lot of work for $30 and then another $10 with SB promotion but I've done more for less!

    Hopefully I don't get those referral issues others are having, fingers crossed.

  • apple0604 on 10/11/2021 - 15:54

    Does anyone has problem downloading revolut app? I received message that my device is not compatible with this app. How to fix this? Any help is appreciated.

    BTW, just checked system is up to date.

    • GreenGuava on 10/11/2021 - 21:16

      Is this on an Android phone? If so, what version of Android is it running? You can check via Settings > About Phone > Android Version (might be a little different depending on your phone). I think your issue could be related to your phone being on an outdated version of Android, despite it stating that it is 'up to date'.

      To expand, your phone could report as being 'up to date' but still have an outdated version of Android, as this is only dependent on whether the firmware on your phone is the same as the last available firmware update released for your device, irrelevant of when that firmware was originally made available or released.

      As an example, if the last available firmware update for your phone is five years old, but your phone is already running this firmware, your phone will state that it is 'up to date' even though the version of Android in that firmware would be many many versions old.

      • apple0604 on 11/11/2021 - 00:17

        Thank you for the detailed reply. Yes my phone is andoid phone, Samsung 10+, and is on android version 10. I regularly update software. So it might be something to do with my Google play services / store. When search for Revolut app in Google play store it didn't even come up. So I have no idea how to fix it.

        Google the problem and tried a few things nothing worked. Does anyone else have the same issue? It is frustrating. I am hoping someone here knows how to fix this issue. The last thing I could try would be installing apk files which I hesitated to do.

        • Sheng on 11/11/2021 - 00:24

          If all else fails perhaps use another device to sign up on, i.e swap sim into another device to sign up, then install apk an. use it normal?

          • apple0604 on 11/11/2021 - 00:48

            @Sheng: I am hesitating to install apk files on my phone at the moment. And yes, I could use another device to sign up and use revolut on the other device which is really inconvenient.

            This is the first time I have this problem, your device isn't compatible with this version. I am keen to fix it.

          • apple0604 on 11/11/2021 - 01:24

            @Sheng: I just installed apk and now have Revolut app on my phone. My next question is will I get referral bonus by simply opening the app and sign up? I reckon no as I need to use the referral link to sign up but it direct me to Google play to download the app there where I got a different error message, this app is no longer compatible with your device.

            Sheng, is this why you suggested that I need to sign up using another device first?

            Thanks.

  • nmcc08 on 10/11/2021 - 17:39

      Signed up yesterday and made the 3 transaction soon afterwards. Took 6 hours for the bonus to arrive. I did contact live chat about it so not sure if that helped (although they just told me to wait and it would arrive later which it did).

      Has your bonus come through yet?

      • Fishballs on 12/11/2021 - 12:53

        I was in the same boat & did online chat with them. They asked for my referrer's name and mobile number. Luckily I still have the referral link saved so just gave the rep the referrer's name & link as I don't have their mobile number. Got my $30 a day later.

        • Smuggy on 14/11/2021 - 18:10

          Explained the situation to 2 reps and gave them name + link, wouldn't budge. Kept insisting that there was nothing they could do.

          Last rep just told me "if you did it right, it should come within the deadline". They couldn't tell me if I HAD done it right or even if I was a referee in the first place.

  • zzyss on 13/11/2021 - 09:16

    Revolut need to work on their referral and purchase tracking system from the sounds of it. Seems as though quite a few people are needing to either follow up to get their purchases tracked, or are otherwise missing out.

    On my end, I have a referral who's been on green ticks for a while for everything except for the three purchases. It's possible they actually haven't made any purchases yet, but the referral came from here so I assume they were intending on getting their $30 credit too.

    (Michael H, if you've made your purchases and they haven't tracked, you might need to follow up with Revolut before the 17th!)

  • deeeno on 13/11/2021 - 13:50

Really disappointing.

  • GPT4 on 16/11/2021 - 21:52

    The Revolut system did not consider Shopback Gift card purchases as valid transactions for the $30 referral reward as per the chat with the rep. I had to do new 3x$10 transactions (bought egift cards from amazon.com.au) and it instantly triggered the $30 credit.

    • DoctorCalculon on 17/11/2021 - 00:38

      Shopback Gift card purchases as valid transactions for the $30 referral reward

      This is due to the current promo they have with SB. They don't want us to double dip.
      It would have been nice if their blog post mentioned this exclusion.

      • Kyle-K on 17/11/2021 - 03:23

        That's absolutely crazy they need to get their terms updated or pay the referral in these situations.

    • nickj on 10/12/2021 - 17:08

      I followed all the steps too, didn't get my bonus either. I'll left them a 1 star app store review - they really should pay if you click a referral, they say they will on the landing page, and you follow all the steps they ask of you - then if they don't pay that's on them for trying to be tricky of using different campaigns. It's a false economy on their behalf and will backfire, they should just pay people what they promised them on the landing page.
      Edit: and I will neg this deal too - I thank the OP, but problem is the company in question are being idiots, and if you follow the steps and don't get the reward, then it's not a deal by any definition.

    my other referral didn't get hers instantly, had to contact the support team and give the referee details to get it.

    Jian W and Wenxia Z shot me a d'm if you need help with support.

    If Katrina Q. or Duncan M. made their 3x $10 purchases, please DM me.
    I had one referral (a friend) - I know he made 3x $10 transactions, all settled and didn't get the money straight away. I had to open a chat and provide name and phone number of the person I referred…
    I think they're trying to prevent OB referrals … (first message was that we had to wait up until 10days past the promotion).

    All my pending referrals got flushed.

    • johnmelb on 17/11/2021 - 22:48

    Hey guys,

    How do we make a formal complaint against Revolut? I am one of those unfortunate ones who used a referral, followed all the steps and didn't get my bonus. When contacting Live chat - which took several days by the way, I was informed that I am blocked from the promotion and from any future promotions ie I won't be able to refer others as well because my activity was not in line with terms and conditions. For reference, I ordered the card, and bought 2 superswap cards and paid a bill. Also for reference, I've never participated in any other promotions with revolut before, have never received any bonus money, never had a 'friend' refer me or be referred by me. But I have been accused for being a cheat and a liar which I really take offense to, aside from not getting that bonus and completely wasting my time with this.

    I got the invite for the $60 referral bonus so referred a friend who was interested.
    She definitely signed up and bought 4 gift cards (I got the Shopback referral bonus from her) but nothing from Revolut after a week.

    My link ended with x39!NOV2AR so I hope that's correct?
    Sheesh, looking at all the above comments, I might just cancel my Revolut and I'm going to use up all remaining balance loaded. Too risky to leave money with them if the customer service is this bad
