Revolut always sounds so interesting, but I’ve been on their waiting list for a year and a half, 70k people in front of me and 35k people behind me, I’ve not seen either figure change in months. I don’t know if I fell through a crack or if they stopped accepting people to the wait list or if something else is going on. It does sound like there are people actually using the service .

Huh. That's strange – in my home country (Norway), they've been struggling with lower growth than expected. [1]

Personally, I stopped using their service due to not enough of a value-add compared to my main bank (Sbanken) and Revolut's questionable HR practices. [2]

Which country are you in?

They started to give me free invites (you have to pay something for delivery of the card) so now many people around me have it. It spreads like fire.

I love the service unfortunately i've read some very bad articles about their ethics/company culture and that their investlrs are russian gansters. But who knows.

From their site:

"Revolut is currently only available to residents of the European Economic Area. We're expanding globally very soon!"
