Money institutes may not cover you like you think they will.
Not if you didn't read your debit card agreement, no. Nothing you've stated wouldn't be clearly spelled out in the agreements I've seen for debit cards. I mean, I can see how this happens: looks like a credit card, must have the same protections as what people online say about credit cards, right? Nope.

If I remember correctly, debit card protections don't exist below £100, so they literally can't do it for a few quid, but they can for larger sums of money.
This isn't an example of Monzo being terrible, this is an example of debit cards being terrible.
The Moral of the Story: Money institutes may not cover you like you think they will.
I've learned my lesson.
Again, be -very- careful.
