Feels like scam, so many glitches

I have been using Revolut for about a month now after setting up the account. My experience has been quite bad, opposite to my expectations as I have earlier used Revolut in Europe with far greater experience.

I am not able to use the funds that I added in the account by either card or UPI. The cc team informed to update the app and logout to login again for a refreshed experience, now I am not able to login again as it says I am entering wrong passcode even though I have been entering the one that I used during setup of account. The forgot passcode option is also absolutely not helping, it only gives option to upload driving license as document for verification whereas PAN card was used during the account verification. Even after uploading clear picture of my driving license several times, it keeps showing error message saying “please upload clear picture without blur”
This is absolutely unacceptable and a very bad experience. Feels like a scam with my funds being stuck in the account.

Hi there, We are truly sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with logging in and accessing your account. Please note that Revolut India operates under a separate entity from Revolut in Europe. If you previously had a European account with the same phone number or email, this can sometimes cause login conflicts that require our team's intervention. When submitting document photos for passcode recovery, please ensure the photo is taken in a well-lit room, without glare or blur, and with all four corners of the ID clearly visible. As we cannot access your personal account details over public App Store reviews, please email our dedicated team directly at support-india@revolut.com from your registered email address. Our team will look into your profile and help you regain access swiftly.

Flexible Card Options

Having both physical and virtual card options means I cam choose what makes sense for each purchase

Card controls are handy

Being able to manage card settings directly from the app gives me much better control when I’m travelling.

Lifesaver for frequent flights

Holding multiple currencies without keeping separate cards is outstanding. Spending in 30+ currencies at highly competitive rates, with no hidden fees, saved my trip budget completely.

Travel card onboarding

The travel card setup was pretty straightforward. Having the card and currency details in one place is convenient.

Nice everyday features

It has a lot going on but the useful stuff is easy to find. UPI and card controls are probably what I use most.

Saves heavily on foreign swipes

Skipping standard credit card 3.5% foreign transaction markup and holding local currencies directly on the card makes traveling way cheaper.

Easy to freeze cards

Lost my card and being able to freeze it directly from the app was genuinely reassuring.

feels well thoighout out

Little things like virtual cards, instant alerts and card controls make the app feel genuinely practical.

Kids account is useful

The kids and teens setup is pretty thoughtful. I can see their spending and set limits from my own app.

In-app support is real

I tried a lot of features too, but the app chat support was quick and got my card limit query sorted in minutes.

Instant alerts

I like getting the payment notification straight away. Makes it easy to keep track of what’s being spent.

Security is solid

I like being able to switch things like contactless location-based security on or off myself.

Useful card controls

I like having so many card controls in the aap. Freezing a card takes basically no time.

Pathetic verification

When i try t create a account it asks for verification and the only option it gives is driving licenses verification , the dl i have is a e format , it doesnt accept that it needs to be scanned so the only option is print and do it and i did still it doesnt accept it , why is there no other options to verify ike pan card or adhaar ?

Response from developer

Hi there, Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we apologize for the inconvenience during verification. As per RBI regulatory standards, our automated verification checks require scanning an original, physical government-issued document directly via your camera. Electronic copies (e-documents) displayed on screens, printouts, or photocopies cannot be authenticated by our verification system. For onboarding in India, document fetching is primarily conducted digitally via DigiLocker (using your linked Aadhaar or Driving Licence), alongside an original physical PAN Card for identity validation. If you are experiencing issues linking your documents or completing verification, please reach out to our team at support-india@revolut.com with your registered mobile number, and we will be happy to assist you.

Good travel companion

Being able to check different currencies and manage the card from one app is super convenient when travelling.

Technical Issues

While the Ui of the app looks superb & User friendly however i have observed few glitches, When i access cards - i get a popup to enable online txn and when i click enable it directly logs me off the app which is frustrating. Im unable to use my virtual card & even when i get my physical card i guess it will be of no use :(

Hi there. We’re sorry to hear about the issues you’re experiencing with the Revolut app. Please reach out to us at support-india@revolut.com so we can take a closer look at the problems you mentioned and provide prompt assistance.

All in one money app

We used this for selecting friends from my phone contacts and split a trip bill. Conversions and splitting was flaless. Takes just seconds in the app.

20 Days Wasted — Worst Verification & Support Experience

This has been one of the most frustrating experiences I have ever had with a financial app.

I waited 20 days for my video verification to be completed. My Aadhaar and PAN were already successfully verified through DigiLocker, but when it came to video verification, the Revolut app repeatedly crashed and showed technical errors, making it impossible to complete the process.

For 20 days, I kept contacting support and escalating the issue. Every time, I was told to wait another 24, 48, or 72 hours. I kept waiting and cooperating, but the problem was never resolved.

Then, on September 4th, I was told to either wait until Monday for verification to become available again or close my account and sign up again, because they supposedly couldn’t manually reopen the verification process. I followed their advice and closed the account.

And now, I can’t even log back in.

Even worse, if you are not logged in, there is apparently no proper way to contact support through the app. I tried using another number to sign up, and instead I was simply put on a waitlist.

So after wasting 20 days, I followed the solution suggested by Revolut itself, and now I am completely locked out.

I have also emailed their support, complaints team, and nodal officer, but despite all this, I still haven’t received a proper resolution.

For a financial service, this level of technical failure, poor communication, and customer support is completely unacceptable.

Extremely disappointed. I would give 0 stars if the option existed.

Waste of time, absolutely poor service

I don’t want to waste any further of my time detailing my entire experience with the Revolut india entity, but general recommendation, just don’t create an account.

Or create an account and be prepared to waste countless hours of your time with chat support which keeps shuffling you to different “teams” with absolutely no resolution in sight.
